Veljko Mršić, Cedevita head coach:
“We have been preparing ourselves for this period throughout the season. Unlike Partizan NIS we have had a bit more turbulent period this season from the start. They have held the second place from the beginning and then fell to the third. It was opposite with us. The thing that we beat Partizan NIS twice does not mean that we are a better team. We will try to prepare ourselves for the game as good as possible and to improve the things that we haven’t been doing quite well before. We will try to play a good game and to win in the first round of the semi-finals.
Miro Bilan, Cedevita player:
“We are all looking forward to this period of the season, the players, the fans. We will face the team that has been playing well throughout the season and has not had many downs throughout it. On the other side, they are in a specific situation since they have had many problems with injuries and illnesses lately, so I believe that this could be our advantage since we are in a better physical shape. The team that will want the win more and that will put in more effort in order to win it will come out on top in the end.”
