"I want to say 'bravo' to Seville. It is a team I like very much - I like the way they play, with a lot of good young players, but also experienced ones like Alex Urtasun, Berni Rodriguez and Ben Woodside, who arrived to give this team what it needed. I am not surprised they beat Barcelona this week. For us, it was a good game. We lost the game but it was a good game for us. We had a very good first half and in the third quarter, when Seville played tougher, more aggressive, we couldn't answer. That is the biggest regret in this game; we had a lot of turnovers and could not match their aggressiveness. I think there is nothing to regret with this loss. Seville was better than us tonight, but we had a good game. Both teams qualified and we will see what will happens when we are in different groups."

"It was an up and down game, with very good and very bad moments. In the end, we managed to win the game. It was a tough game, with a lot of pressure and this is a very important win. We qualified to the next round because Charleroi lost and it is very important to keep going forward in this beautiful competition. We hope we can advance past the second round if possible and reach the elimination rounds, which are great games, which everyone wants to play. It is great to play the Eurocup and it is as important as the Spanish League to us. Some of the best teams in Europe are in this competition. We have to enjoy it, because you cannot play it every year."
