Bakken Bears player Christian Lindberg
"They started the game pretty physically and took too many rebounds. We didn't play as aggressive as we should have, especially in the first half."

Bakken Bears head coach Ville Tuominen
"I think Cholet showed today the level difference of quality between the two teams. They were stronger, bigger and more athletic, especially after our big guy Christoffersen took early fouls. After that, we had no respond for the rebounding. Congratulations to them. For us, it's a great experience to be there and to play in this kind of atmosphere against this kind of team. Luckily we are qualified for the Last 16 so we will have 6 more games.

Cholet Basket head coach Eric Chatfield
"We played pressure defence, we played together. Everyone was involved on offence and defence and this is the way to win games."

Cholet Basket head coach Jean-Manuel Sousa
"After our defeat in the French Championship, we took this game seriously with a good beginning, so after it was easier and better for us. We played aggressive on both sides of the court and thanks to this, we were confident for this victory."
