Coach Ivanovic’s statements on the eve of the EuroLeague match<\/strong>: \u201cI think that right now ASVEL is probably one of the best teams. They play very well, with great confidence, with great athleticism and they can count on very good defense. Maledon and De Colo are very important players and leaders who can create and drag their teammates. We will have to play a very good defensive game to try to contain them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Achille Polonara’s pre-game<\/strong>: \u201cA complicated game awaits us, Asvel played a very good first round in the Euroleague. They are a tough, young, very explosive and athletic team. We will have to be very careful with their 1vs1 and their counterattacks while on offense simply playing our basketball, as we know how to do.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
