Coach Banchi: “There is a great desire on everyone’s part to prove ourselves up to such an important appointment. For both of us this game will be the appetizer of the play-in. This is the time to take care of every little detail and control our emotions. Baskonia plays at a high pace, in Madrid they played high scoring, with lots of possessions and they showcased their ballistic ability. They are a team of physical size and athleticism that, by characteristics, can play very aggressive defense. It will be a tough and demanding game but we are preparing for it in the best way possible.”
Achille Polonara: “We want to close this Regular Season in the best possible way to prove that we deserve the post-season. Baskonia is talented and runs very well on the counterattack: they won in Madrid and on other difficult courts. We have to start as always with defense, which will be the key to limit their strengths.”
