ERGİN ATAMAN: WE RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT LEAGUE
Head coach Ergin Ataman in Anadolu Efes stated that they did not start the game well. Ataman said, “Later, with Doğuş and Buğrahan entering the game, we managed to increase the pace, we defended very well. In the second quarter, we got a lot of defensive numbers, we scored 39 points. In the third quarter, we played well, we found the tempo. The players from the bench also contributed. Of course, Tofaş had its shortcomings, this cannot be ignored, but we played the game before 48 hours were over. It is also normal for our players to be tired after the double match week in the Euroleague. We have won an important league, we continue our way without losing.
