"After starting the season with two wins, we're facing Turk Telekom, team we appreciate. We got a good team, and we want to stick to our main goals in order to have a chance to win in Ankara. We come to this game after losing in our domestic pre season tournament final, and we need quickly to face the challenge ahead of us."
"We are coming after a loss to our biggest rival in a final game that was close and went to overtime. It's never fun but I'm sure we all came out stronger and that in the long run it will do us good. Ankara is a very good and talented team, space the court with efficiency, they have players who can shot the ball really good and we will have to control the rebound, be aggressive and control the tempo to come back to Israel with the W."
