Avtodor Saratov Head Coach Brad GREENBERG’s comments from dramatic win versus FIATC Joventut Baralona:
«Had a tremendously competitive win tonight over a top flight Spanish Club - Joventut. Played without our starting PG - Malcolm Armstead who was out with a back injury and early in the 2nd quarter we lost PG Denis Lukashov to a hand injury. But our discipline down the stretch helped us win with a score with 3 seconds left in the game. Final score 87-86.»

Avtodor Saratov Head Coach Brad GREENBERG’s comments from thrilling win versus Murcia en la Cancha:
«Finished our competitions against Spanish ACB teams with a hard fought 62-58 win over Murcia. Had a comfortable 17 point lead after 3 but Murcia made some 3's, drew some fouls driving it hard to the basket and forced us into some mistakes to make the final score close. We had some good moments at both ends of the floor and I am proud of finishing 4-1 on this trip with wins over Manresa, Barcelone, Joventut and Murcia. And we played without Malcom Armstead in 3 of our last 4 games. And without Jeff Brooks as well in our lone loss to Zaragoza. We now have a short break to catch our breath and then it's the real deal with Khimki on Oct 4 in Moscow. Heading back to Russia tomorrow. Adios Espana!»
