Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
Congratulations to the team with the win. It is always good to make our fans happy especially on the tournament that is very important for us, that is dedicated to Alexander Gomelsky, the great coach and great person. The game had its ups and downs. We lacked energy in he beginning, played sloppy. But in the second half we digger deeper into ourselves, into our hearts and souls. We started to defend with our hands and size. Surely, our defense was focused on Langford still we defended well inside the three-point ark, letting the opponent to make just 36% of their 2-point shots.
