THE TAKE

A direct fight for the first place in Group G takes place in Moscow, Russia, where Dynamo hosts Unicaja on Wednesday at 18:15 CET. Dynamo (1-1) broke its six-game winning streak last week with a 74-55 road loss against Benetton Treviso. Meanwhile, Unicaja (2-0) is the only undefeated team in Group G and is on a five-game winning streak in the competition. It will also be the first-ever official game between both teams. Above all, it is the chance to see a highly-anticipated matchup between two of the best centers in the competition, Lazaros Papadopoulos (15.9 ppg., 6.9 rpg., 1.4 spg.) of Dynamo and Daniel Santiago (11.5 ppg., 4.8 rpg.) of Unicaja. Papadopoulos, who earned Euroleague January MVP honors, has his perfect frontcourt complement in Antonis Fotsis (13.9 ppg., 47.3% 3FG, 6.4 rpg.), with physical big men Obinna Ezekie (6.3 ppg., 65.5% 2FG) and Yuri Vasilyev (3.2 ppg.) coming off the bench. Santiago will have to stay out of foul trouble against Papadopoulos, whose set of post moves and hook shots make him almost unstoppable when he is focused. Carlos Jimenez (6.9 ppg., 4.8 rpg.) will have an interesting matchup against Fotsis, while shot blocking ace Florent Pietrus (3.9 ppg., 3.6 rpg.), three-point threat Marko Tusek (45.5% 3FG) and hard-nosed center Iñaki De Miguel (2.4 ppg.) will be ready to come off the bench. Unicaja will have to slow playmaker Bojan Popovic (11.3 ppg., 1.9 spg.), who leads the Top 16 index rating at 26 per night, and who share Dynamo's point guard duties with Eddie Gill (6.7 ppg., 44.4% 3FG). Unicaja counts on a top defensive player like Carlos Cabezas (9.2 ppg.), as well as an outstanding floor general like Pepe Sanchez (6.7 ppg., 2.9 spg.). Both players are used to share some time on court, so Cabezas may test his defensive and slashing skills against Sergey Monya (3.8 ppg.) or Taquan Dean (8.5 ppg.). Both players are ready to step up and play quality minutes along Dmitri Domani (6 ppg., 43.8% 3FG) and Sergey Bykov (2.4 ppg.). Unicaja rounds his backcourt with do-it-all swingmen Jiri Welsch (9.9 ppg., 43.3% 3FG, 1.4 spg.) and Berni Rodriguez (11.9 ppg.), as well as scoring specialist Kostas Vasileadis (6.9 ppg.). Above all, the winners will take a crucial step towards reaching the playoffs, so expect nothing but intensity in Krilatskoe Arena. Tuesday, February 27, 2007 Euroleague.net

Quotes Head Coaches

IVKOVIC, DUSAN Dynamo Moscow "We have a very complicated situation before one very complicated game. In January, we had a complete team, including Miroslav Raicevic after three months, but now we are without Travis Hansen and Raicevic again, but also with problems for Ekezie, Trushkin and Domani. Ekezie felt again pain in his muscle, Trushkin has old problems with his heel while our captain Dmitry Domani was sick and he played in St. Petersbourg only the last 7 seconds. Domani will be ready to play, but not in optimal conditions, while for Trushkin and specially Ekezie I don't know and in this situation it's very difficult for me talk about the game. Generally, Unicaja is now in a very good moment. After the Spanish King's Cup they have won 2 games in the Euroleague and 2 in the Spanish league, they have more confidence and no doubt that it will be a very hard game."

Dynamo is also the only team in our Top 16 group that has won a game away from home, and as such, has taken an important advantage with respect to the the rest who have simply won games at home. We are aware of the difficult of our task, and we're trying to prepare ourselves in the best possible way to try to exploit our skills and battle in an away game following a series of good partidos played and won at home."

Head Coaches

IVKOVIC, DUSAN Dynamo Moscow “It was a very tough game for us. As you probably know, we faced several problems inside the team because of the injuries. It was hard to maintain the tempo and we did it only because of my players’ desire. Unicaja fought till the end – I can only congratulate my colleague with the nice performance of his guys. But we played great too, especially in the first half. I want to thank our fans – Their support helped us a lot. It will be great to see even more people in the crowd in the future. “

SCARIOLO, SERGIO Unicaja “Today’s game had two faces: A good start, but then a shock after Jimenez’s injury. While we were coming to our senses, Dynamo ran far away. When we got back to the game, after the halftime, we showed a completely another level of basketball. Bluntly speaking, we didn’t shay anymore to play and score points. But in the last 3 minutes, we made two fatal mistakes and allowed Dynamo to increase the lead. I am pleased that we managed to cut the difference essentially, but at the same time I am upset with the loss.”

Players

VASILYEV, YURI Dynamo Moscow "We won today because of our tough defense and fast breaks. A flaw at the beginning of the third quarter didn't stop us: we struck back with a solid and clever performance in the last minutes. For me, personally, it was difficult to play against Santiago. His four early fouls helped us a lot, though you can't say that remembering the third quarter. Popovic, Papadopoulos and Dean were our great main offensive weapons, but our team defense was an even more important key to the win."

FAISON, MARCUS Unicaja "Dynamo got a very big lead at the beginning and it's always very hard to come back after dropping behind by 20 points. Our coach didn't tell us any special words, he only pointed out that he knew we saw the picture of the game ourselves and had to change it. We couldn't play like that anymore. Well, we were able to return to the game but when it all came down to the small details towards the end, they made big plays, and we didn't."
