Banchi: “The best first half of the year”

“We have to give credit to our team for playing the best first half of the year with a great help from the bench. All the guys gave us something and increased the level of efficiency. I didn’t expect that quality of play to stay the same through the end but still we have to reflect on the second half because too many silly mistakes in handling the situation or missing the fouls shots could have cost us a game we definitely deserved to win for keeping Panathinaikos down for 38 minutes”. This is what Coach Luca Banchi had to say about the big win conquered over Panathinaikos, the ninth home win of the secons out of 10 games.
