Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
For me, my coaching staff and everybody, every game is special; it is a EuroLeague game. I am happy that we stepped up and kind of showed good character on both ends, offensively and defensively. This is actually our target right now. Early on the season, we are building something. We are building our character, some bonds that we will need afterward. When I say bonds, I am talking about basketball bonds, defensively and offensively. Of course, we had our lapses and we tried to cut them, but I think that today we did a pretty good job.
