PRE-GAME QUOTES

Dusko Ivanovic, BC Khimki head coach:

"I think that Bilbao Basket is one of the best teams in our EuroCup group. They have talent, excellent shooters and big experience in players like Mumbru. They play very well with huge support of their fans that gives much pressure to the opponent side".

Marko Todorovic, BC Khimki forward:

“Of course, it will be a special game for me. This is the first time I will face Bilbao Basket after the time I was in that team. Now it’s different. We expect a tough game because I know the atmosphere at their arena as it’s very difficult. This year they have shown they can beat big teams like FC Barcelona in the Spanish League, so it will be tough. We have to prepare and play as we did in last two games. In this case, we’ll have big chances to win. They have great players in Mumbru, Hervelle and the players with good energy in Dejan Todorovic and some young guys”.
