First of all, Merry Christmas for those who celebrate it this days, and Happy upcoming New Year. The game went exactly how we expected. Minsk fought like they always fighting, they had two wins in last three games, they beat Kalev and Parma on road. We have to handle a lot of load with games and travels. This is why we started slowly and paid the price. In the second quarter Tsmoki outscored us. We changed our mindset in halftime and scored 56 points in the second half. We were shooting better, we created the situations that we wanted. Congratulations to the team. It is nice to finish the calendar year with the win, but the season continues. It was reat atmosphere in the gym today, good luck to Tsmoki.
