Barcelona is a great team, leaders of the Euroleague and one of the contenders for the title. They probably don’t have a good selection of players in Europe, but they do have the best. Together they are playing for the second year and they have a great coach Jasikevičius, who brought the whole team together, ”said Kurtinaitis before the game.
The Chimki strategist also highlighted Jasikevičius’s work with both the players and the team in general.
“He pays attention to both the individual abilities of the players and the discipline in the team, and all this is reflected in the results. We have nothing to lose and we are ready for the game. We’ll see how it all ends, “concluded Kurtinaitis.
Forward Devin Booker said he was facing a tough opponent at the time, but believed his team’s chances were.
“They are a great team with a good coach. Barcelona starts with defense, so it won’t be easy for us, but I think we can do our job. We have a group of great guys who are motivated and ready to win, “Booker said.
