Rimas Kurtinaitis, BC Khimki head coach:
— In terms of the tournament settings the game with Igokea will decide nothing, but as usual we will play for win, as at home we have no right to lose. Now we are on a good wave, and despite a number of injured players, we have enough experienced guys who have to show themselves in such plays. I think there is no psychological pressure and increased responsibility, however, I'm sure that our opponent won't surrender without a fight. The game in Bosnia was not easy, as our road from Belgrade to Laktasi took about six hours, so in the first half we were boiled, and in fact started to play just after a big break. Igokea plays well, but I wouldn't like to point out anyone as they show really good team game.
