Igor Kokoskov: Baskonia is a tough team. They are physical, very strong and they play hard for 40 minutes. We have to compete with this team and match their energy and intensity. Whatever they do, they do it at 100 percent. They are very talented so they can play this style of basketball that Baskonia is playing.

Ahmet Duverioglu: It will be the first leg of the double-game week in EuroLeague. We could not execute our plans on court in Barcelona and the game ended with an unwanted result for us. We have to start this game with much higher energy, and we have to be determined from the start. We know that they are a good team. They have effective guards in Henry and Vildoza. They also have very good players in their big guys, especially in rebounding. We have to defend well as a team and we have to minimize the second chance points for our opponent. Both teams need a win so I expect a very tough game. Away wins are very valuable in Euroleague and we want to get a win here.
