On the eve of the game with Milan, coach Sergio Scariolo spoke: “The match against Milan is always extremely difficult due to the very high level of the opponent. We know it is a special game for our fans, who will not fail to support us with great energy and presence, as they have always done in all the games this year. We must be ready to defend for all 24 seconds of possession, because Milan is a team capable of using them all, and we will also have to try to capture most of the defensive rebounds. On offense we will have to play with intelligence, trying to put the ball where we have advantage, limiting the number of useless dribbles and circulating the ball well to find high percentage shots, which against a good defence like our opponent’s is not easy. We will therefore have to have a high level of concentration and patience.”
