In the 19th week of the ING Basketball Super League, Yakup Sekizkök, who managed our team instead of Ergin Ataman, who was unable to take charge of our team due to his illness, explained his views after the game as follows:
"Fenerbahce Beko is a team that we know very well. We made a very detailed preparation. We thought that we would break the game at the end of the third quarter, it happened as we thought. We knew that they would score by playing aggressively, especially with Guduric and Henry. While defending them, we tried not to give a chance to score to players like Biberovic Şehmus and Metecan, who improved their performance recently. We succeeded in this. Thanks to this, we kept our opponent at 71 points. We wanted to play our way of basketball on offense, we tried to attack the defensive gaps of Fenerbahçe Beko with a few minor changes. When our shooting percentage was higher than our recent performance in the last weeks, we reached this score. It was important for us to catch the 22-point lead, so we fought until the end, but Micic is very tired this week and in this game. It didn't happen, but from now on, we will chase the top by winning our remaining matches in the league. We have a tough fixture in February. Euroleague and Turkish Cup schedule very busy, I think we closed January well with this win.
