Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:

We talked at halftime about turnovers and we managed to have only 4 in the second half. We played more physical, we won the boards which is very important against such a team. When we started pressing their point guards, we created trouble for them – the first pass was not easy and it starts from there. Physicality, rebounds, no turnovers [were the keys]. It’s a long game, a game of runs. We had ours and they had theirs. We’ve got to be happy, we showed progress as a team, we’re happy because of the win and the way we performed. We showed character and that’s the most important thing for me. We’re on the road, playing tough games with absences, but still we kept believing in ourselves. So congratulations to my team for that.
