...Because Efes Pilsen won in Istanbul leaving CSKA with no chance to qualify for the Euroleague Top 16. Coaches knew about that in the half time, and the reserves played for almost all the second half.

Union Olimpija vs. CSKA: 81-72

Dmitry Shakulin, CSKA interim coach:
Since Efes beat Panathinaikos, we knew from the start of second half that we were out of the Top 16. After 8 consecutive years in the Final Four, it’s a big blow to the club, but that’s life. We have to start anew from the bottom, and that’s why those who played today were the ones that don’t usually play much.
