"Alba defended us well and we were nervous and not fluid on offense. Alba played intelligently and was very successful in the fourth quarter. With time I think my players will understand the kind of basketball that I want to play. Alba's players' experience took its toll. Despite losing, in many parts of the game we were solid on defense."

"We fought hard, giving our best during the game, but came up short and it is a shame. This was our first game with Pepu Hernandez, a coach that doesn't need to be introduced. He earned to be well-known in basketball. We have to bounce back. We managed to fight all game long night and have to carry on doing that in the Spanish League from now on."

"It was obvious that both teams had anxiety. I think we won because we knew how to balance our defense and our attack. My players were great the last quarter and I think we surprised Joventut by scoring 33 points. I think that apart from our shooting success, we rebounded well."
