“First of all, I congratulate Beşiktaş Sompo Japan, they were the better team in the series. I can say very little about the match. I can say that the match was ended at the second quarter. We were like a shadow in the arena after the quarter and Beşiktaş Sompo Japan had an easy win. We play bas as this in the mlast month. The team couldn’t find their way after getting eliminated by Olympiacos...”

Anadolu Efes’s captain Doğuş Balbay also stated his thoughts at the press conference: “First of all, I am very sorry that we have finished the season like this and I believe that this match is a shame. I am, as the team captain, responsible and I couldn’t do what was awaited from me in the last match. A club as rooted as this, a club that has great success in their history, mustn’t lose a match in their own arena like this. We are ashamed today, as much as we were happy for our successes. We apologize to our supporters those supported us throughout the entire season. As because they always want us to play good. Unfortunately, we couldn’t to our job in the arena today. I wish success to Beşiktaş Sompo Japan.”
