PRE-GAME QUOTES

Georgios Bartzokas, BC Khimki head coach:

“There is no doubt, both games in Moscow were very difficult for us. At the same time, they gave us an opportunity to become a better team because we played against so many talented players. It’s important for us to be consistent and stable in our game plan; to keep on playing. Wherever you lose your concentration and have little time you don’t execute well, you’ll pay for it. So, it’s very important to be focused on the game. We will try hard at our home court to win this game”.

Anthony Gill, BC Khimki forward:

“We just have to focus more. The situation now is if we lose this game we’ll be out of the EuroLeague. Nobody on the team wants it so we want to continue and go as far as we can. We have to focus on little things and cut down our mistakes. I, think our hustle can decide the game. I mean, how much we hustle, how much passion we have in the game. I’m excited about our home court because our fans always support us and bring energy”.
