"I can be satisfied with our play in the second quarter and partly with the third quarter, where we showed that we can play with them. This was a limited time, when we had the result 50-50, we too easily missed a chance. I cannot say that the players did not fight, but we were short this time. We did not open the game well, also we did not make fouls when we needed to. This is mostly a lack of aggressiveness. We are too shy. There were moments we did play aggressive and we showed that we can play on this level. Honestly, the breaking point of the game was at 50-50, when we missed some easy shots and the opponents capitalized on this on the other end. They have a lot of quality in their roster. We protected the paint well, but due to this we also gave them a lot of space outside. Kinsey and Jerrells took advantage of this. I have mixed feelings, I cannot be unsatisfied, but it is a fact that we need to show these positive moments of the game also in other games, when we face more even quality opponents."

"This was a very important victory for us. We wanted to win and confirm our road win against Valencia. It was not easy. There are no easy games in the 7Days EuroCup. You saw the results in our group. I respect Olimpija a lot, they are a big name of European basketball. Their players played until the end and did not give up. They played two tight games in the 7Days EuroCup until the end. I am happy that we won this one. We had some bad moments in the second quarter, when our players were thinking that we can win with only offense. This was is not acceptable. We played much better in the second half."
