President of the VTB United League Sergei Kushchenko shared his prediction for the final playoff between UNICS And Lokomotiv Kuban .
The United League final playoff series begins on May 6 in Kazan.
I’m not a fan of predictions. Predictions can be made after two or three games, because something will be clear. As we said above, there must be heroes. Dimitrievich is the undisputed leader who fired UNICS in the semi-final series. Loko can try to simply knock him out of the game with the help of the defense. And the other players have to be ready for that – Macon, Reynolds or someone else. This endgame chess coaching story will be on a whole new level. Both coaches are ambitious, the leaders are ambitious. In the final there is neither last year’s champion “Zenith”, nor the long-time favorite of CSKA.
Basketball will be nervous, emotional, there will be pressure on everyone – players, coaches, referees, managers. In any case, it will be basketball of the highest level. Everything is played out here for the first time. Any team can win gold in VTB League and Russian Championship for the first time. There is a lot at stake. Every little thing will count, from the work of the club driver and massage therapist to the decisions of club management and players. This is the level we’ve been waiting for a long time and hopefully we’ll get the beauty from the very first game of the series, – Kushchenko official quotes website leagues.
You can follow the progress of the first match of the series between UNICS and Lokomotiv-Kuban on Saturday live on the channel, as well as on sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru. The broadcast starts at 1:30 p.m. (Moscow time).
