Pablo Laso: We lost the Paris game because of small details

Anadolu Efes lost 95-90 to Paris Basketball in Week 10 of the EuroLeague. The match was played at the Turkcell Basketball Development Center.

Anadolu Efes head coach Pablo Laso said at the post-match press conference that his team was ahead in many statistics, but that small details are decisive in basketball. Laso said they were superior to the opponent in steals and rebounds. He also noted that the team relied too heavily on Payne's creativity and scoring.

Laso said they did not share the ball well in the second and fourth quarters and struggled to produce points. He also congratulated Paris Basketball.

Paris Basketball head coach Maxime Lefevre said his team earned an important win with contributions from everyone. Lefevre said Maozinha Pereira, who played limited minutes, had a big impact on the game, and that Hifi scored 28 points with 9 assists. He also said they had difficulty defending Payne.

Lefevre said they turned the game around in the final quarter. He noted that they conceded 26 points in the first quarter and held the opponent to 10 points in the second period. He admitted that they started the third quarter without energy and conceded 34 points. He said the recovery in the final quarter allowed them to win the game.
