Ergin Ataman, Anadolu Efes head coach, after the match talked about the last attack against Olympiacos in the Euroleague semifinals.
The result was a draw until the last second when Vasilije Micic scored a triple for a 77:74 victory.
“We wanted to use the whole attack, so we started with our own half. It was uncertain, I talked to the players and told them to attack in the last five or six seconds, to control the last half and attack Vezenkov. “We chose Micic because Larkin had a problem with cramps, he couldn’t attack,” said the Turkish coach.
“I didn’t tell Vasa to shoot but to assess and ‘read’ the situation. Maybe to attack, because they were in the bonus, to go inside. He shot, hit. We missed some easier shots, he hit that and that is basketball. In Athens, after the overtime, we lost to them when Sloukas scored a three with the sound of a siren, now we have won “, concluded Ataman.
Efes will play against Real Madrid in the final.
