Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
We didn’t show our level nor worked like a team, so Khimki found their way. We had the lead in the first half many times, and in the big break, we talked about more intensive plays in many aspets. Unfortunately, we’ve had poor third and fourth quarters. That allowed Khimki to win, congrats to them.
