Rimas Kurtinaitis: "There are no weak opponents in the Champions League"

"We didn't have any illusions about the draw. We didn't divide the opponents into strong and weak before the draw."

Idman.biz reports that this was said by Rimas Kurtinaitis, the head coach of the "Sabah" basketball club.

The experienced specialist evaluated the Champions League draw. He stated that his opponents are strong enough: "Alba, one of our opponents in Group B, will play again under the FIBA flag after a 24-year break. This team has been a permanent resident of the Euroleague for many years. Its level is known. I think it is one of the favorite teams to win the tournament. "Nymburk" has previously been "Sabah's" opponent in the FIBA Europe Cup. It is a disciplined team with a squad of quality basketball players. Last season, they advanced to the 1/4 finals of the Champions League. There are also good teams among our potential opponents in the qualifying stage. I played as a player in the French representative "Elan Chalon". In short, there are no weak opponents in the Champions League. We are forming a competitive team. We can fight with these teams."

It should be noted that the regular championship in the Champions League will start on October 7.
