PRE-GAME QUOTES

Andrey Maltsev, Khimki Moscow Region interim head coach:
“Crvena Zvezda is a well balanced team that is playing Yugoslav type of basketball. They have experienced coach Radonjic who knows the taste of the EuroLeague. Also, they have good foreigners in the roster who are leaders of the team and take upon themselves much responsibility both in the offense and defense. We have to keep the same attitude as in the recent games against Real Madrid, three quarters against ALBA Berlin and the last game against Zenit in VTB United League”.
Errick McCollum, Khimki Moscow Region guard:
“They are a trong team defensively. They play aggressive and physical basketball. They play good at home as well. We just have to come out and bring the same energy, matching their intensity defensively. If we do that I think we have a chance to come out with a result we desire”.
