Oleg Kiselev: «Today Samara won thanks to individual skills.»
Oleg Kiselev, a head coach of Astana, commented on the match with Samara in the VTB United League.
«I would not say that we completely failed the first half. Yes, at the very beginning, we let Samara take the lead, but then we returned to the game and closed the gap to 12 points. Although we couldn't cope with the press — that's all. Today «Samara» won due to individual skills: the players were simply stronger individually. If we lose «-12» in three or four minutes on the basic press we analyzed and prepared for, this is an individual level.»
