Today at 8:00 am the opponent of Moscow army team in the final series of play-off UNICS Kasan came to Moscow by the regular flight. Team is living in the nearest hotel to USH CSKA – Aerostar. In the evening Stanislav Eremin team came to home arena of CSKA to have 2-hour practice. Players of both teams met each other near the exit of arena. Players greet each other by the friendship way. Both coaches also greet each other but were too concentrated in tomorrow games. Before the start of the practice Stanislav Eremin agreed to answer several questions for our site:

Championships of other countries have another scheme of the final of play-off. Which of them is the most optimal?

- I have read the discussion about it in today sport press. But now all my thinks are about two road games. I think that the scheme we have now is the best for us.

What can you say about the advantage of the home arena in the final series?

- It could become too important for us. UNICS play at home better then on the road. But players of CSKA already have shown that they can play very good on the road. Sometimes they play sat home worse then on the road.

Which tournament was the most important for you this season?

- At the beginning of the season I said that we have to move to three finals. This task was not fulfilling at all. We could not move to the final of Cup of Russia.

What is the reason of your loses in Perm? Is it really amazing support of local fans?

- Perm is really separate place in the question. We won many road games against serious opponents. But CSKA also lose in Perm like we. Moscow has its own specific. Here peoples come to basketball plays as show.

Will Zukauskas play in tomorrow game?

- We came here in the full squad. All our players are in the good health. If team will need his help he will play.
