Defeating Arel University Büyükçekmece Basketball 90-72 in the 7th-week match of Tahincioğlu Basketball Super League game, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts at the post-game press conference:
"We grabbed the point difference we were looking for in the match especially with Rodrigue Beaubois’s one point after the other at the beginning of the second quarter. Then we had the chance to help our A team to rest easily. This is the double week in Euroleague, we have a Maccabi Fox Telaviv match on Tuesday. Our other players have played as well and it was a solid victory in the end. I congratulate my players.”
Our successful player Sertaç Şanlı who finished the match with the stats of 12 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, and 3 blocks also stated his thoughts at the press conference: “We couldn’t begin the match as we wanted to. We knew that Arel University Büyükçekmece Basketball team was going to show toughness in the first quarter but we couldn’t show toughness. They scored easy points. We played the game we wanted in the second half and had a good victory. We have very difficult matches this week. I hope that we fight until the end and won both matches.”
