Ataman: “We played very well especially in the second half of the match…”

Defeating İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediye 86-67 in the 26th-week match of Tahincioğlu Basketball Super League game, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts at the post-game press conference:

 “The first quarter was a little idle. We played very well especially in the second half after warming up. We stole 8 balls and made 20 assists. Our percentages are very good. Istanbul Büyükşehir Belediye team is not on our level as a team but they won the match in the first half of the league with 26 point difference. Thus this match was a return match. We play a good basketball. We are at where we wanted to be on the league. We would like to protect our line on the league and go to the play-offs as it is.”

Our player Brock Motum also stated his thoughts at the press conference as; “This is a good win. If I’m not mistaken we have lost our first match with this rival with a 26 point difference. It was important to win in our home.”
