Defeating the Darüşşafaka Tekfen team in the 30th-week postponement match of ING Basketball Super League, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts post-game:
"It was a great match and a great fight. We played to play with our players those play with fewer minutes in Euroleague and prepare them for the playoffs. This match is important for Darüşşafaka Tekfen’s ranking. My players who played defended and fought well. Congratulations to my players, we concluded the Turkish League with 29 wins. We are heading to playoffs like this. Our playoff matches begin on Friday. Turkish League playoffs will be our goal before the Euroleague Final Four. We will have a quarterfinal and if we qualify semi-final, it will be a preparation for us before the Final Four. "
