The hosts opened the game with a 12-0 run, and put together a 15-2 run in the second quarter to open a 20-point lead and never look back.

Schilb opened Paris account, before him and Lang nailed three-pointers to get within 14-10, but that is as close as the visitors got the entire night. Thompson ended the first quarter with a three-pointer for 19-10, and after a layup from Mike Green in the second for 23-16, Bamberg went on a 15-2 spurt to open up 38-18 lead.

With the winner clearly decided, Lang and Malela Mutuale hit triples for the visitors, while Wanamaker assisted for baskets from Strelnieks.

"Let’s say that we maximized our week in Bamberg. We played solid, not excellent, and it was a very important week in Eurocup. Bonn just beat Zaragoza at home, so this was a pivotal game, because home-court advantage is everything. We started well. It is one week that we are moving the ball as I am asking; we had 31 assists. That is something I believe should make my players happy. I believe that all the congratulations should go to the players. It is very hard for a young team to keep up the concentration after Bonn and Ulm. We are grinding and we have to go on grinding. "

"Bamberg was too strong for us; they played with intensity in every situation in offense and defense. My team is very young, it is important that we recmemberl that. We tried in the third quarter to play with intensity and physicality. It is important that we learn that for our future. Because it was the first time that we played against a team with an intensity like that and it was a big surprise when we started the game. Our future depends on how we stand in that situation. "
