Andreas Pistiolis, CSKA head coach:

First of all, I want to thank all the fans who came out today. Honestly, I didn't expect such a crowd or such an atmosphere, so I'm happy about it. I enjoyed the fact that we were very serious from the first minute to the last. We played good basketball, and even the mistakes we made were mistakes on the right track. I know fans love it when a team scores over 100 points on offense, but for me as a coach, it was much more important that we didn't let our opponent score 60.
