Blatt: “Final Four should be played in İstanbul; sport must win no matter what”

In the seventeenth matchday of Turkish Airlines EuroLeague, Darüşşafaka Doğuş got the 98-89  home win over Saski Baskonia. In the press conference that took place after the game, Daçka’s head coach David Blatt voiced his opinions regarding to the ongoing debate whether İstanbul should remain as the host of Final Four and one of the hosts of EuroBasket 2017.

US-born coach explained his position on the matter by saying the following:

All these problems aren’t happening only in İstanbul. Even if we play somewhere else than İstanbul, there is no place that isn’t vitally dangerous. In spite of inhuman threats, sport must go on. Final Four is awarded to İstanbul and should be played here; nobody should worry about this.  Sport must win no matter what. In France, Germany, in all over the world, these events unfortunately occur.
