POST-GAME

Dusko Ivanovic, BC Khimki head coach:

“It was a very important game for us because we are fighting for a better position before the play-offs. Parma played really well, without any pressure. Every player played with heart. In some moments we played well and had a 10-11 points advantage. When we didn't have enough patience Parma made comebacks; but for us it's more important to win after loss in the EuroCup. I think our physical and mental problems affected the way we played in Perm”.
