CSKA shut the Tivoli door with a bang

“The game was difficult as we expected. We were ready for this kind of game and we planned to build our actions on defense and rebounding. After a good start we fell down, lost the rhythm, had a miscommunication. I think it can be explained by the long vacations when we did not play a single game. In the end we showed our character, defended much better. Kurbanov and Keyru helped us a lot as they defended very well together with Khryapa. Holden and Langdon carried offensive load scoring all the important baskets in the end.”
