PRE-GAME QUOTES
Rimas Kurtinaitis, BC Khimki head coach:
"Strasbourg is a good team that has played well so far. They have a good coach in Vincent Collet who also heads the French National team. At home the French play fast, which they showed in the last game, defeated Monaco by a margin of 25 points. Like each team in our group, Strasbourg is a dangerous opponent who may score a road win. Everything will depend on our attitude and us but at home we have good self-discipline and have to beat the French as we want to enter Top 16. We had a good experience against Crvena Zvezda last week and want to maintain it".
Tyler Honeycutt, BC Khimki forward:
"Strasbourg is a good team. It’s a Euroleague game and we know that every play is very important. Our group is pretty even as everyone can lose a game. We are still in a good position and want to finish regular season at the top place".
