Post-match reaction after the NBA's Boston Celtics top Olimpia Milano 124-91 in NBA Global Games Europe pre-season game

Script: SOUNDBITE: (English) Brad Stevens, Boston Celtics Head Coach:

"The number one thing that please me is our energy, I thought we played hard. I thought we made a lot of mistakes - but that is to be expected. I thought we tried to play together on the offensive end of the floor. As far as Jonas (Jerebko) goes we will play him at both the three and the four. Our depth, especially in the pre-season is probably going to create more opportunity at the the three. As we get into the regular season I anticipate him - especially against smaller line-ups, playing a lot at the four."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Brad Stevens, Boston Celtics Head Coach:

(on Alessandro Gentile)

"Yeah I have said this for a long time and I will speak more in general terms because that is, you know, not something I can speak about directly. There is a lot of players that can play in the NBA and there are a lot of great players across the world. From his perspective...and from our view he is extremely difficult to play against. We knew that coming in."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Robbie Hummel, Olimpa Milano

"I think with your first game you are a little bit rusty but they, to me, didn't really look like they had a lot of rust. I think you can attribute that to them having played together for a long time. Obviously you add David Lee, but the core of the team is pretty much the same as last year, but I was impressed with the way they moved the ball. I think at half-time some of us said it reminded us of the Spurs a little bit. Not maybe to that level but that is kind of what they were doing out there in their ball movement and their action. I was honestly really impressed. I think just looking at their team they are deep with their bigs, they are deep with quality Guards. I think we were all pretty impressed with their squad."
