Tahjere McCall: “Game #2 will be much tougher”

The Lokomotiv Kuban guard told how the team is preparing for the continuation of the quarterfinal series against Uralmash.
What is the main thing to do before the next game?
Recover and try to imitate what we did in the first game. We know it's going to be a tougher game, so just play defense and rebound. Give yourself a chance to win.
What can you say about the toughness of the first game?
You expect that in the playoffs. I think it was a normal playoff game. Everything matters, everybody fighting for something. So I think it was good.
How different will Uralmash be?
We got to see. Adjustments, different players play differently. It's going to be a different game for sure, but we just have to focus on ourselves and do what we do. And hope to take care of the rest.
And how different will Loko be?
I don't know if you can say different, but we're just going to try to do what we do and try to keep getting better every day. And hopefully we better win them.
What can you say to people who may be hesitating to come today?
Yeah, come. We need y'all. It was a great atmosphere. I think it will be a little bit better. But everyone helps. The love that we get, it helps us a lot, even if you don't know it. So come out, show love.
