Partizan Mozzart Bet BelgradeMonaco head coach Sasa Obradovic surely wasn't happy with his team's performance, showcasing that in the post-game interview with EuroLeague TV.
"We didn't pick up with their rhythm. We didn't run and jump like them," Obradovic started.
"It doesn't matter if, on offense, you miss some shots without any big plan, but you still have to run. We did not have a single minute of underdog mentality tonight.
"We were just walking there. If you play like this against Paris, against this kind of team, you have no chance," Obradovic honestly claimed.
Monaco falls to a 3-2 record ahead of an away double-week against Partizan Mozzart Bet Belgrade and Zalgiris Kaunas.
Paris, meanwhile, increased their score to 2-3, awaiting games against ALBA Berlin away and hosting Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz next week.
