Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
Obviously, it's good to have a 2-0 lead. Regarding the game, there was tremendous [desire] from both sides to defend the paint, a lot of switches, and the pace went down a little bit. It was more hard decisions and reading the game by great players. I will always and ever be their biggest fan. I like the way they approach the game; I like their heart; I like their determination. I am their coach, but I am their biggest fan. I say it loud here; they deserve all the congratulations.
