Ergin Ataman: “We have only one match to win the trophy…”

Defeating Fenerbahçe Beko 92-73 in the semi-final match of Turkish Airlines Euroleague Final Four game and advanced to the finale, Anadolu Efes head coach Ergin Ataman stated his thoughts at the post-game press conference:

"We’ve played our own game throughout the match. We’ve continued with our aggressive game like the entire season. We’ve managed to stop Ali Muhammed with a special defense who has an important place in Fenerbahçe’s offense. We’ve struggled to stop Guduric and Eric Green at first, Eric Green used this well. Then we’ve become better at defense and with that, the offense as well. We’ve started to play via running. We’ve shared the ball around well, shot some empty shots as well. As I’ve said in the half-time conference, we’ve wanted to continue with our own game in the second half. Our two guards especially controlled the offense very well, Bryant Dunston made a great effort in defense. We’ve received a rebound contribution from Moerman. We only have one match to win the trophy ahead us now.”
