Coach Banchi: "We open this first EuroLeague double-round against Zalgiris aware that we have to play a determined and focused game, against an opponent that knows how to exalt itself in transition and on the dribble and pass thanks to the versatility of its quintets. We have a great desire to achieve the first European seasonal success that only a high level collective performance will guarantee."
Achille Polonara: "It will be a tough game but we play at home so we will have to put even more energy, taking advantage of the warmth of our fans. In a game like tomorrow’s it will be crucial to start well unlike what we have done in the past few games. Zalgiris has experience and a core of players who know each other and have been playing in Kaunas for a long time."
