After a washy game in black-and-white Pionir in Belgrade the fans would like to see the brighter game against Partizan from the colorful stands of Megasport Palace...

A lot of changes happened since the game in Serbian capitol. Injuries sidelined first game hero Zoran Erceg (3 threes) and anti-hero Nenad Krstic (8 turnovers). The Grobari will probably miss their starting point guard Leo Westermann. At the same time both teams added to their backcourt: CSKA has hopes in Dionte Christmas and Partizan has to lay upon Nemanja Gordic to carry point guard duties.

"We are well aware of Partizan's potential after a very difficult game in Belgrade," - CSKA head coach Ettore Messina said. "At the same time we are making good progress this past week and we will prepare for the home game. We have some difficulties with Krstic out but I am sure that the other players will be able to help the team."
