First of all, congratulations to all players with another victory in VTB League, very prestigious and tough tournament. We dominated in all playoff series. I am proud of the team, we had great result in past 3 seasons, we were 27-1 in playoffs. I would like to thank them for their effort and dedication. It was huge motivation for us to fight for the new Cup named after great Sergey Belov. The cup looks nice and it will take honorable place in CSKA museum. I would like to thank everyone – players, coaches, management, president, obviously, our fans. Now we will drink a bit and celebrate. It was another great season, though it was not perfect as it was last year. Still we are fighting for trophies, for places on top of Europe, we remain in elite and play spectacular basketball. More to come!
