Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
We faced fantastic offensive team and we needed half of the game to adjust our defense. Then we found right combination of good defense and effective offense and got the well-deserved win against excellent rookie team.
Alexander Kaun , CSKA center:
Krasniy Oktyabr is a good team which is playing offensive basketball. It's their first season in VTB League. We started the game after a tough loss to Fenerbahce Ulker that's why our first half was unsuccessful. In the second one we found the way to play good on defense, made a spurt and finish the game with the win.
