You left from the team – the Euroleague participant…

Jerome, who frayed the BC Khimki coaches nerves became the player of yellow-blue team…. — journalists addressed to Kestutis Kemzura.
— I am happy with the fact what Jerome will play in our team. Now our opponents will face the same problems which we have in matches against “Joventut”: difficulties under backboards. Jerome is very athletic person; he seems to cover all 3 second zone.
— Jerome Moiso is player on demand, — said Victor Bychkov. – He can choose among great clubs, where he wants to play. We needed expressive center. Last season we failed such person. When we had lost to “Joventut”, we decided that this guy should play in our team.
— Now our aim to create the real team from our great players – added Kestutis Kemzura and showed №6 on the jersey of Moiso. – And you should do 6 slamdunk each match.
And Moiso is sure that this number will be lucky for him and his team.
— I like to dunk. – Moiso smiled. After it journalists bombarded the newcomer of BC Khimki with questions full hour.
