Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
We are up 1-0 and we played real playoff game. We will continue to fight, it’s a series and one win is not enough. We have a day to watch the film, analyze what we did good and bad, to make conclusions and play better on Saturday. I would also like to congratulate Nando with his well-deserved MVP award.

Alexander Kaun, CSKA Moscow center:
I think we had some problems today because Nizhny played zone defense and we were not ready. In the first half everything worked well – we played personal defense and scored off pick-and-rolls. Tomorrow we are going to watch video and decide the problem to prevent it.

ok analizzare la partita, ma dovreste analizzare anche voi stessi e capire perché diamine continuate a giocare così altalenamente. E' un po' uno stress starvi a guardare, è come andare sulle montagne russe ;-)
Non so come faccia il coach DI a non mandarvi a quel paese ogni secondo e a rimanere così impassibile. Spero che negli spogliatoi vi abbia strigliato per bene. in ogni caso sempreforzacska
