Podgorica, October 25 - Early in the game the Russian took short leads. CSKA had the control of the boards and thus could fastbreak and free its shooters. Buducnot had problems containing CSKA's speed, but held close with a final jumper by Igor Rakocevic, making it 20-28 at the end of the first period.
The music didn't change in the second period, when seven points in a row by Giricek gave CSKA a 25-38 lead after four minutes. The home team continued to shot badly from deep, but thanks to Radonjic, Buducnost was able to limit the damage at the break to 33-45.
After the half, Buducnost got a jump with two three-pointers by Radonjic to come within 39-50, but
their accuracy tailed off again and CSKA got easy baskets. Buducnost coach Zoran Sretenovic tried to change players to find the right line up but his team defense was too soft for CSKA.
