In detail what Efes’s guard said:
“Very difficult game today. This stadium is very hard, but we showed character and we were united as a team. The game is a game of the series. We were back with 15, but we believed in ourselves and remained calm. Great game for us, but we should not be happy too much, because we have two more in front of us to achieve our goal.
We were more concentrated in the 4th quarter than the previous game, we found a good shot and avoided the Panathinaikos transition. This is how we got a very big win. Efes that made back-to-back was a special team, we were a family. But now we have more talent, we have in our roster elements that we didn’t have so much then.
Banky came, guided us with a new system, it took time, but it was strict with what he wanted to do, and so we showed our potential. There are different groups of the Efes of the past with it, but you are currently seeing the results of this effort. “.
