Today we scored consistently, even Gallinari (3 points and 1-9 FG) remained aggressive despite not scoring too much, that was important for us. We know we don’t have too many home games between now and the end of the season, so we have to secure the home games and then look for more wins away. It was important to win and to do it so effectively.”

Finally, Bring Young He referred to the key to the match: “We found what they were trying to do defensively and we attacked them very well. They like to trade on the marks, even for a moment they did a box and 1 and then they changed to zone. But we understood that, we looked for alternatives and we attacked them very intelligently.”
