Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
I am happy to be back to Turkey. We immediately accepted the invitation from organizers and we are lucky to be a part of this great tournament. I can say that our progress is obvious in comparison to last 5 games. We had tough camp in the mountains, played some difficult friendlies. We had a meeting with the players trying to understand what works good and what is not. We dominated on the boards, had 21 rebounds more than opponents but at the same time had 15 turnovers more.
