Defeating Arel University Büyükçekmece 109-69 in the 4th-week match of Basketball Super League game, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts post-game:
“I am pleased with tonight’s game; we faced a bad defeat last week in Bandırma. We spoke about the necessity of taking the league matches seriously entire week. It was a good week for us. We’ve had an important win in Valencia. Even though Büyükçekmece has a weaker team than ours, all 12 of our players participated. Of course, our target now is the crucial Real Madrid match we will play on Thursday evening. We will prepare for that match from tomorrow morning.”
