Rimas Kurtinaitis, BC Khimki head coach:
— Everyone knows that the game CSKA — BC Khimki is a derby. Of course, the responsibility shackled us in the beginning of the meeting and did not give the opportunity to take a run. As for the whole game, we showed character and I'm happy for the boys. Not to say that this is my merit, since I'm only for two months in the team, but we have evolved from an ordinary team into a winning team. To beat CSKA twice in a row — it is very difficult, believe me. My birthday's comming and the team has presented me the best gift! Thanks for all the guys!
