After the game we asked the head coaches of CSKA and Dynamo Moscow Region to comment this game:
The head coach of CSKA Dusan Ivkovic:
- Everybody in CSKA: the players and me, we expect much better game, more control game. Unfortunately, out team was not well prepared, it’s my job, for that kind of the game. And I want to congratulate Dynamo. They were very concentrated today. They have big-big motivation in the game against CSKA. I liked play of Taylor and Sheyko best of all. We have only ten days before the first Euroleague game and we have to work hard. We have problems in control, in concentration. Now I don’t want to tell who was better, who was worse. If we want to have a successful season, we have to improve our concentration and motivation.
The head coach of Dynamo Moscow Region Eugeniy Kovalenko:
- The game was good; I think that peoples, who came here today, liked it. CSKA has very good roster, that’s why this game was more difficult for us. Now I worry that we haven’t team-play, but today it was well. It’s good that we played against so strong team like CSKA, because in so games we can see our problems very well. We have to work hard. We need to find good center.
Who of the CSKA players did you like best of all today?
- Marcus Brown. In the difficult moments he played very well, he is high class player. I like him from that time when he played in France. CSKA roster is very good, I like play of Holden, Tarlac, Panov… The team is very strong in the offense and the defense. Now the Amy team is a leader of the Russian and European basketball, and I would like to wish them success in the Euroleague.
