Victory over Dynamo Moscow!

Tonight BC Triumph hosted Dynamo Moscow in the Russian championship and remained unbeaten at home.
Regardless of BC Triumph missing Goree our team came out and won with 72:63 victory over Dynamo!
BC Triumph Head Coach Stanislav Eremin:
- We played with good motivation, showed team play. Today, unlike our play in first two games against Dynamo, we played better defense during the whole game. I'm satisfied that our young players - Likhodey, Osipov, - made a big contribution for the victory.
This victory was very important for is to overcome the psychological barrier, cause Dynamo took over us rather easy twice in this season.
I want to give thanks to JR Bremer. He came back from USA two days before, didn't practice for two weeks and helped us tonight a lot. I want to thank Panin for his play, it was one of his first games after the injury, he's still recovering. I want to thank Marcus Goree, he is injured and was on the bench tonigh. But in some game moments when it was a hot on the court he asked me put him in the game - "Coach, I wanna help my team!". It's respectworthy, and I want to say that we were one whole team tonight, and every player made all he could for the victory.
Dynamo Head Coach David Blatt:
- Congratulations to Triumph. Tonight thay did all necessary to win. We played not on our level. It eas our 6 or 7 game on the road and despite our efforts this fact affected the team. We played flat, without energy, and we paid the price for it.
We played not so bad during three quarters, but in the last period Triumph scored 7 of 12 treys. It means that our defense wasn't enough good and these treys made the final score difference.
I think that it's not a bad result to miss 72 points in the road game. But if we played in offense on our level, we had the chance to win.
