Ulm - Khimki (90:95)

Ivanović: We can beat Khimki only with good defense

  • Published:

This is the Germans' last chance to stay in the fight for the quarterfinal, their current score is 0-2

The Germans played the All Star this weekend, there were no league games, so Ulm's last official game was against Lietkabelis in Lithuania. That game was a big blunder, Ulm lost a lot of things they were winning. Their score is now 0-2, and that compromised their chances for the quarterfinal. Considering they lost a home game to Berlin, if they lose to Khimki, they won't have a chance to fix it because it's not really realistic that they can beat the Bavarians and the Russians on the road. 

- To have a chance against Khimki, we have to play our best basketball. We showed a few times this season that we can do it - the coach Thorsten Leibenath says.

His team were up by 14 points in Panevezys in the third period, and the fact that they lost is quite surreal. It's not like they tend to be inconsistent. They had a perfect season so far, with 17-0 in the national league, and a fall like that, nobody saw it coming. Leibenath kept warning about K. Lavrinovič before the game, and he turned out to be right. He hit 19 points, the veteran Lukauskis added 20, the Lithuanians had 12/24 three-pointer shots.

- We didn't have three important players, and only had five turnovers in the first half, but 15 in the second. That was just too many - the coach said. Besides Günther and Olbrecht, Leibenath had to do without Da'Sean Butler, too. 

Olbrecht will definitely stay out, and the news before the game said that Günther could play today, but Butler is still a mystery.

Khimki have 1-1 score. Their first road game in Germany ended with a convincing win against Alba. The second one in Munchen ended with a debacle last week. The coach Ivanović complained about the defense that sucked against Bayern a few days back as well, and allowed 115 to Zenit. They needed to change something there against Astana in the VTB league this weekend. They played like the coach wanted them to, allowing only 66, and it was an easy win.

- We analyzed Ulm's game and realized they're playing very fast, they might be the fastest team in Europe. They've got great shooters and are playing small ball well. They've got good transition - the coach Ivanović pointed out.

- We expect a tough game, I hope we can play good defense for 40 minutes because that's the only way to win this. 

Evans is questionable, he's been injured and missed the last few games. He hit 23 with 11 assists against Astana, and Todorović played the game of the season with 15 points and 18 rebounds.

- With didn't have enough chemistry on the floor in München, we didn't keep to our style. We got back to our game against Astana, the game we're used to - the point guard Markel Brown made an interesting point. The Russians will obviously do whatever they can here to stop the Germans.
