PRE-GAME QUOTES
Georgios Bartzokas, BC Khimki head coach:
“We need to play much better than in the last two games and play really well in this environment to win. Right now, Maccabi is playing better. They changed a little bit the way they play, I mean not so much uptempo, trying a little bit to control the game and set up their offense. Anyway, it’s a forty-minutes game and we need to follow our game plan”.
Charles Jenkins, BC Khimki guard:
“Another tough EuroLeague game. Two teams at the bottom of the standings fighting to stay in the playoff race. Maccabi has always been a really individually talented team; they always had guys who could score the balls very well and they continue to have this season, I mean Scottie Wilbekin, Tarik Black, Johnny O’Bryant as well as other guys who can score for them. I think, it will be another tough environment for us to be in, and an opportunity to make some steps trying to get some wins in the EuroLeague”.
