THE STAKES

Lokomotiv Kuban is chasing a win to stay perfect at home and stay on track to reach the next round; Fraport is still winless and cannot afford another loss if it is to have a realistic chance to advance. In this first-ever matchup, both teams are guided by very experienced coaches: Lokomotiv’s Bozo Maljkovic, a former Euroleague winner, and Fraport’s Muli Katzurin.

THE TAKE

Lokomotiv has power under the boards and ranks second in rebounds with 43 per game, which presents a major challenge for Skyliners’ lack of size up front. Specifically, the German side will also have to worry about Lokomotiv’s athletic forward, Jeremiah Massey. But the hosts have also been struggling from downtown, hitting only 29% of its three-point attempts. Keep an eye on the duel between guards Roderick Blakney and Michael Thompson, both of whom can control tempo and put up points.

Quartez Robertson drilled 15 for the visitors, Jermareo Davidson and Johannes Herbert netted 11 apiece and Michael “Juice” Thompson added 9. The gusts took a 21-26 early advantage in the second quarter, but a 15-0 Lokomotiv run late in the quarter changed the momentum of the game, with the home team leading 42-33. Another amazing 13-2 run late in the third quarter closed the game with the hosts leading 60-43 entering in the last quarter.

Traore scored 6 points and Massey the hit a three pointer of 15 unanswered points of the home team to lead 42-33 close to halftime. A jumper by Robertson made it 42-35 at the break.

Massey converted an offensive rebound to gain a double-digit cushion 47-37. Herber answered from beyond the arc, but a 9-0 run capped by Traore with a jumper from the top of the key gave a 56-41 cushion to the hosts. And after a jumper by Jermareo Davidson, another 6-0 spurt with a big dunk by Massey made it 60-43 at the end of the third quarter. Danilo Barthel and Marius Nolte fueled Skyliners early in the last quarter to 64-47 before Chalmers from downtown made it a 20-point game.

Head Coaches

MALJKOVIC, BOZIDAR
Lokomotiv Kuban
"At the beginning of the game we used the pressing around the court. The opponents showed fast attacks and very exact shots. Having had a timeout we started defending seriously and succeeded in offense. We also controlled rebounds. We made mistakes but they were not serious enough to affect the course of the game. We have no high three-point shots’ percentage but surely we will improve in the next games. Tonight game is meaningful on the condition that we go on to win some road matches."
KATZURIN, MULI
Fraport Skyliners
"First of all I would like to congratulate Lokomotiv Kuban on the victory. The opponent played better and they deserved this win. We had a good start and we found the way to withstand the opponent’s force. We were in the game thanks to several easy baskets. The burst of Lokomotiv of 15-0 was the turning point. The second half was distinguished by proper Lokomotiv defense and our 23 turnovers affecting the outcome of the duel. Besides, the opponent’s bench was much deeper. Therefore they had more chances to use fresh players we didn’t have. Also we missed John Leuer. John got injured in the first half of the game. We are looking forward to meet Lokomotiv again in Frankfurt."

Players

BLAKNEY, RODERICK
Lokomotiv Kuban
"We beat a strong team tonight. Everyone played well. Our defense helped us to gain the win. This victory is the result of the team effort. At the very end we were especially serious. We were fighting for every point being extremely concentrated. Because in the future these points can be meaningful for us. We won by 23 points and that’s a good result for the team now. When I came to Krasnodar I faced inexorable pressure from the media. The team helped me to be adapted."
THOMPSON, MICHAEL
Fraport Skyliners
"In my mind we have done good work. We began well. But unfortunately we didn’t continue the second half in the same way. We seriously failed both offense and defense. We were slow and let Lokomotiv take many offensive rebounds that affected the outcome of the game."
