Head Coaches

LUKIC, ZORAN
Nizhny Novgorod
"There is nothing much to the win except the final result. We spent the first half playing on a very good level, but in the second half, once again, we failed from the functional point of view. My players were so slow to make decisions on the court that it resembled to some basketball games from 80th. We will try to understand the situation, because in the future we should expect more experienced rivals."
FRADE, CARLOS
Alba Fehervar
"It was a very significant match for our team. Nizhny Novgorod is a very strong team, which has almost beaten the Euroleague club Lietuvos Rytas a few days ago. I think that my players have not yet adapted to the new conditions for themselves, because our Eurocup rivals are very different from those who play against us in the Championship of Hungary. We got a good lesson and we should improve our performance in every aspect of the basketball game."

ANTONOV, SEMEN
Nizhny Novgorod
"With all due respect to the club from Hungary, it was not a serious rival for our team. On the other hand, even in this situation the game of Nizhny Novgorod leaves much to be desired. We allowed 64 points, and it’s a lot, especially if we recall the previous match. I don’t know why we played so poor in the second half. I can only speak for myself, that because of performance in the National team, I'm not 100 percent ready to play on my highest level."
HOBBS, BRAYDON
Alba Fehervar
"We faced a serious opponent. I think that BC Nizhny Novgorod is one of the favorites in our group. As for our team, we all made today too many mistakes. If you take a look at our statistics, you can see that we made 15 turnovers. It wasn’t the best match of Alba Fehervar both on defense and on offense, so we still need to work hard."
