After the draw of 16 strongest teams in Euroleague, CEO of CSKA Sergey Kushchenko commented its results:
- There are no weak teams and no weak groups in Top 16. This season the level of Euroleague teams has grown up greatly and it’s hard to predict the result of many games. The competition system of Top 16 let the winner be defined in one game and any of 16 teams can concentrate for the key game. So to discuss what group is stronger is senseless now. Not a single team will have an easy way to Final Four. Top 16 is a separate competition where former merits are not counted, the winners will be the teams better ready for it.
