In the event of a tie, the team with the better point differentials will advance. CEZ Nymburk has never been this far in the Eurocup competition, good luck guys!
Bilbao's coach on Nymburk
“It is a different team that the one we faced last year, but keeping the same playing time, as they have the same coach as last season. Ron Lewis wasn't with Nymburk last season and he is an important player for them. He is a good scorer, either in one-on-one situations, fast breaks and open shots, a good physical player. They also added Phil Ricci, that provides consistency and toughness around the baskets. Nymburk also signed Pumprla, that adds athleticism, as well as Mike Lenzly as shooting guard and backup playmaker. He is an experienced player and a good shooter. We have to go out there to win the game without thinking on the second leg at home. People talk about an 80-minute game, but as face a tough 40-minute one tomorrow and our mentality will be to win it, not trying to get a good score."
