POST-GAME

Rimas Kurtinaitis, Khimki Moscow Region head coach:

“I'm happy for this win. I'm glad how we play in defense, as the guys made effort. There were some problems in offense, but at the moment we see how to survive because we play without three point guards, only with Zaytsev as a pure point guard. Today we played hard, but could have scored better. This is the very thing we should work on. The most important thing is that we played well on rebounding, played tough in defense, didn't let our opponent take balls and made many steals. Before tough game with FC Bayern Munich it was a good training matchup”.
