Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
Obviously the fans should have enjoy the game. The teams played with desire and demonstrated offensive basketball decorated by some really great plays. Zalgiris played with enthusiasm, aggressiveness and with no fear at all. We played good offensive game. The stats which don’t tell you about defense show that we had 112 ranking points and 22 assists. Still our defense was not at the level. Obviously some of our players are bothered by nagging injuries and they did not play in the way they could play. Still some others stepped up and brought us victory.
