It was a tough game. They play solid, they play together. A lot of shooters, they play unselfishly. Credit to this team, winning at home on our court is something we’ve got to be pleased with. But a lot of mistakes – we could make highlights of the mistakes we’re making. We have to be smarter. Transition defense was an Achilles heel all game long. We have to be better in communication, running back, guarding the individual responsibilities. So we’re pleased that we won, all credit to the players. But we’ve got a lot to learn from this game because we made a lot of mistakes. We’ve got a great group of guys who are willing to sacrifice for each other, whatever the game needs. This is EuroLeague, the second-best league in the world, and playing at this level every good team needs guys who are willing to sacrifice and accept the roles they have. One game at a time, one possession at a time. We focus on every quarter. We want the media and the fans to talk about it [the winning run], that’s your job. But our job is to play basketball.”
 
Sikma is a unique player who gives a special flavour to his team as a playmaking power forward, which makes their offense look so easy when they have such a talented passer as a glue guy. With their playmaking and spacing it’s very difficult to guard this team.
