“The credit goes 100% to our players. All our credit goes to our players. I told them before the game, I told them at halftime, there's not any practice or any game that we didn't play hard. But for Euroleague, you have to play well and you have to play smart. And I think that, that we did it today. We're just missing seven guys. That's a message that I have to give. And our fans deserve to know because I don't come every night and day and cry about it. I don't talk about injuries and stuff that's happening. We dressed one junior guy, I mean 16 years old guy was on the bench tonight. And the reason I mentioned this, not because I'm looking for an alibi while we lost some games, but for Efes fans who are loyal, care about the team and organization, that they should know that we don't only struggle. We're just trying to find healthy bodies and fine legs. We have a special group of guys. We don't have a bad apple, we don't play selfish ever. Sometimes we get tired. We can enjoy this win even more. Credit absolutely goes to each player who played 3 minutes or 30 minutes. We always have a game plan. I think first quarter is telling you that we come prepared, we come ready, we come focused with a lot of energy. Sometimes we can’t land the plane because we get tired, but we find a way to close the game tonight with big heart. We're making big places in crunch time. But our schedule is brutal. We have an important game in Turkish League on Sunday and then another game next week. So we can enjoy tonight. I just want to use this opportunity to wish Xavi Pascual welcome to the Euroleague. He's with the talent and caliber of coach, with that kind of caliber of coach, he deserved to be in Euroleague and coach on the top level. So I just want to wish him welcome back to Euroleague.”
