Army men came together around hot Weems and Krstic in the second half of the game against Efes, demonstrated great quality of the game and won with big margin.

CSKA vs. Anadolu Efes Istanbul: 90-71 (+19)

Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
I’d like to congratulate Efes for the good game they played. We knew that all is reset in Top 16. When we qualified, we played some up-n-down games and now we are starting anew. My congratulations to our players. They were very patient even after some turnovers and under good defense by opponents under the basket. Our team played smart, unselfish and disciplined enough to find Weems and Krstic who stepped up tonight. Besides Jackson did excellent defensive job on Farmar in the second half. It is important that we won with big margin which will help us in the standings.


Oktay Mahmuti, Efes coach:
I think the result showed the real picture of what we had on the floor. We played good for three quarters but after that we missed a couple of times from under the basket and we got two three-pointers in return. In this moments CSKA broke our game down.
