Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
This game was very important for us because Alexander Gomelsky, if he was with us today, would celebrate his 87th Birthday. The team played very good basketball through three quarters and I have to apologize to the fans for the fourth quarter when we played really bad, weren’t focused, played below our standards. At the same time we came here after tough Euroleague game in Istanbul so our intention was to win and to share playing time. And we succeeded in that.
