THE TAKE

Second place is up for grabs in Group C as BC Hemofarm Stada hosts Galatasaray Cafe Crown - with the winner grabbing the second spot. Head coach Miroslav Nikolic's Hemofarm comes into the game at 6-3 after getting upset at Hanzevast Capitals. The Serbian side was out-shot 47%-52% and Hanzevast forced 18 Hemofarm turnovers. Shooting guard Rawle Marshall and small forward Goran Jagodnik both scored 20 points in the losing effort while playmaker Nebojsa Joksimovic added 13 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 steals. Nikolic's men will have to reverse a 15-point loss at Galatasaray in Week 5, when Hemofarm shot just 40% from the floor and forced just 12 Galatasaray turnovers. Galatasaray meanwhile comes into game after beating Asesoft at home to improve to 6-3. Galatasaray was out-shot 43%-48% but committed just 13 turnovers to Asesoft's 17. Playmaker Dee Brown led the way for Galatasaray with 21 poitns, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 steals while small forward Charles Gaines had 15 points and 9 rebounds and power forward Chris Owens collected 14 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks off the bench. Head coach Murat Ozyer may be concerned that only six players scored at all - as shooting guard Robert Hite missed the Asesoft game. Ozyer's team could definitely use Hite, who has averaged 15.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.8 steals. Expect a closer game than at Galatasaray in Week 5.

Head Coaches

NIKOLIC, MIROSLAV
BC Hemofarm Stada
"We had three away matches in January and the team is exhausted. Jagodnik is injured and couldn't help us with his great international experience. Galatasaray is a better team and we couldn't follow them in quick play and good concentration. It's important that we passed to the next round and no matter if the rival is strong and weak team we can win if we are in good shape."
OZYER, MURAT
Galatasaray Cafe Crown
"We didn't play well in defense until the last period and couldn't stop players like Marshall and Joksimovic. We returned to the game in the last period when we played with two big players and dominated in defense and three-point shots. We had 32 points in the last period and that decided the match."
KAYA, MURAT
Galatasaray Cafe Crown
"It was an important game because we ended this round in the second place. We didn't start well, especially in defense and allowed Hemofarm to score so many points. In the last period we improved our defense and decreased the goal difference. We had 32 points and won."
