Our team lost by big margin in St.Petersburg after facing aggressive defense and missing many open shots.
Congratulations to Zenit, they played better today, with bigger desire from very first moment. We could not respond though we had moments. It was disheartening performance by our team. We are the same team that recently beat one of the best defenses in Europe, that made 7 of 8 threes. We had open looks but could not make not only threes but also layups.
