The head coach of Panathinaikos BC OPAP, Argyris Pedoulakis, stated after the end of the game against Zenit St Petersburg: "With the exception of first 3 minutes of the game, I think we played good today. Zenit is a well-coached team, and if you let them play their basketball, they'll kill you for sure. We tried to change their tempo and make them play our tempo. We moved the ball pretty well; you can see it in the stats, too. Our guards were changing every five or six minutes. I want to highlight the role of Papapetrou and Vougioukas; I think they played the crucial role today."
