“First of all. I congratulate Galatasaray Odeabank. They played better than us today and they deserved this win. We have played with a very bad percentage of two and three point shoots. Thus, this was the reason that we couldn’t stay within the game. We have a game that we must win ahead of us. We have to prepare for the third match. We have the arena advantage and we must use this…”

Anadolu Efes’s yound player Samet Geyik also stated his thoughts at the press conference as: “Today we wanted to win and finish the series actually but we weren’t well on the offense. Galatasaray Odeabank played very well. We would like to win on the Saturday game and go to the finals. We think that if we don’t play with a bad shoot percentage like today we will win.”
