Defeating Tofaş team 98-74 in the 13th-week away match of ING Basketball Super League, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts post-game:
"We didn’t begin very well; our tempo was low. Then, Doğuş and Buğrahan managed to increase the tempo, our defense was very well. We’ve managed to score because of the defense within the second quarter, we’ve scored 39 points. We’ve played very well within the third quarter as well, found our tempo. The reason behind this is also the contribution from the bench. Tofaş was lacking players, of course, this is one of the reasons but we’ve also played this match not even after 48 hours the previous one. It is normal for some of our players to feel tired after a double week in Euroleague. It was an important league victory, our unbeaten streak continues.”
