Igor Kokoskov: One of the most talented and deepest rosters in Euroleague. This team is built to be a contender, to win the championship this year. They are playing aggressively and well. I think they feel good about themselves especially when they are playing at home. We have a lot of respect for this team, for this roster, but I think we have enough time to get ready, to get focused, to reset ourselves to play the best game and give our best shot against this team. Very deep team, they have a deep roster. We have to play focused for 40 minutes.

Jan Vesely: It's the first game of our tough road trips, so we have to take a rest and prepare mentally for it. It is going to be a very difficult game. They have a great roster, with Calathes coming in. They have great players in all 5 positions, so we have to play hard from the beginning until the end and we have to focus for 40 minutes. That is going to be the key, because we cannot rest even for one second against this kind of a team.
