Ataman: “We couldn’t take over the control of the game in the first 6 minutes…”

Defeated by Fenerbahçe Beko team 66-84 in the 24th-week match of Turkish Airlines Euroleague game, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman shared his thoughts at the post-game press conference:

"I congratulate Fenerbahçe. They’ve played a very positive game tonight. Especially with the three-point shots, they made 5 or 6 shots over outstretched hands in the last seconds. After the first 6 minutes, we lost control and the discipline of the game, especially in the first half. We lost the game basically and then we started to make a lot of turnovers. In the second half, I think that we played a better game, but Fenerbahçe played very well tonight. We have 6 more matches in Euroleague and we are keeping our row. We will leave behind this game and be ready for Barcelona next week."
