KB Sigal Prishtina won the Balkan League trophy for second year in a row. The head coach Antonis Constantinides took over in the middle of the season and won all but one game - the last one. However the win in the first final was enough for his team to celebrated with the title. Here is what he had to say after the match in Bar was over

 

"First of all I want to congratulate the two teams. These two final were advertisement for the basketball and they showed the good level of this league.

 

I feel that we deserved this trophy. If we think how we played in this period and also before I came to the team, it′s fair to say that. Again, those were the two best teams in the competition and it was the best possible final of the season. Overall we were better than Mornar as a team. We have problems with our rotation but we found solution with our energy, with our power, with our confidence to finish the way we did. I congratulate my players and I feel very proud, especially after such a game. It was a very tough final for many reasons and this is why it makes our success 2-3 times bigger than it is.

 

We were prepared for moments like when Mornar went up by 13. We prepared a lot our mentality. We knew that if they go up by 14 they would have to had a clear mentality and we were prepared for it. That′s why any time they went up by 10 or 11 we came back. It′s not easy to survive with this team but we did it and we feel very very happy."
