Emil Rajkovic, CSKA head coach:
Today we saw good basketball played by the top teams in the league. UNICS had not suffered a single defeat before our meeting, and today proved why. They defended aggressively, as we expected, and attacked just as aggressively even without their two leading guards, Macon and Brown. Our guys stepped up in the second half, especially in terms of offensive creation. We are moving on, we keep pushing, we still have a long road to the playoffs, everything has just started. I hope we will keep making progress.
