\n\u201cI am happy because we played against a well deserved leader of the group and one of the best teams in the EuroCup,\u201d Itoudis said following the game. \u201cThey are well coached and they have a great team but we rose up to the occasion and we came out with a big second half. We saw where to attack them, we did a better job with our pick and roll creation and we took away their drives which hurt us in the first half. The team in general performed well and we have to need to keep growing as we are going on in a good way.\u201d

\nThe game MVP Jonathan Motley spoke about the keys to victory, \u201cWe wanted to make sure that in the second half we fixed up our mistakes that we had first half. We played good defense and we only gave up 77 points in the game while we scored 46 points in the 2nd half. As for my play, I just try to do whatever helps my team to win and be an extension of the coach and an extra playmaker out there. After last week\u2019s loss, we needed to comeback and we wanted to finish the game and do a better job with that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
