Ullar Kerde, Head Coach of Tartu Rock:

"In the first half the Samara team had unbelievable percentage - 80% approximately, which doesn't  happen often in basketball!!!"

"I had to explain to my boys during the break that in such a game it is necessary to defend much better and to be more active. If during the first half the opponent had 51 point than in the second half only 26. Only successful actions after the half time helped us to handle the Samara team."

"Frankly speaking, we didn't have it as the aim or mission to get to the play-off, but since we have succeeded we will fight till the end and try to go as far as possible."

Valery Tikhonenk, Head Coach of CSK VVS-Samara:

"It's a Strange feeling actually. On the one hand it is pleasant that we won, on the other - the difference in 21 point hasn't been reached. I think that the amoint of travel in the last weeks to Europe and back to Asia has tired us out. Anyway, life goes on, and we go forward. Our main aim is succeeded: the ticket to the FIBA EuroCup Play-off is ours. But we will try to go further."
