This is what Coach Luca Banchi had to say this morning at the Olimpia’s practice before Real Madrid “We could call it an impossible challenge to play against an unbeaten team like Real Madrid. Bu we’d like to stop at the fascinating aspect of playing against the best. We’ll try hard to raise our level of play and we’ll do that in an ideal scenario because our house is going to be packed and up for the challenge of competing against the number 1 candidate to win the Euroleague title and to find out if we’re going to be able to play well and with the energy we had in the last few home games”.

CJ Wallace, who competed in Spain against Real Madrid while playing for FC Barcelona: “To me, to have a chance against Real Madrid you have to control their fast-breaks, don’t allow many easy baskets and offensive rebounds. But against a team like that it’s far easier to say than to do it. And still we want to play well and try to compete”.
