With two wins in the pocket our team went to Bilbao to fight for the third one. Army men will continue the Euroleague quarterfinal series on Wednesday and (if necessary) on Friday.

“Game 2 was different from Game 1 and we’ve already explained why”, - CSKA head coach Jonas Kazlauskas said. “Bilbao showed that it is dangerous and it can be even more dangerous at home, on their arena which is probably one of the loudest in Europe. From the other side I think we should not be as nervous as we were in parts of previous game. We will prepare and focus better.”

If Bilbao played the ACB game on Sunday, defeating Sevilla in two overtimes on road, red-blues continued their preparations in regular mode. All 15 players are healthy and ready, therefore nobody was left at home this time.
