PRE-GAME QUOTES

Dusko Ivanovic, BC Khimki head coach:

“I think it will be a very tough game. We'll fight for a win because at the end of the season all results will be important. At the moment Tsmoki-Minsk has strong inside players; they play with big guys many times. And of course, they have a pair of two good American guys in Gray and Joyce. They are good shooters and play quickly; good on pick and rolls and situations one on one”.
