"Our defensive line was energized with Doğuş’s participation. At first, we struggled on defense, we gave chances to Papapetrou. Then we forced the rival guards with Doğuş and held on to the game. Lacking our scoring players like Larkin and Beaubois, Micic played amazingly tonight. Lacking Dunston and Sertaç, we played rotating our three big players. In the end, this victory is very important for us. In the match where we lack our important players, we won 14 years later and I congratulate my players.”
