Damir Grgić, trener: »Tokrat smo se kot četrti uvrstili na zaključni turnir, ko smo ključni zmagi vpisali v zadnjem delu rednega dela sezone. Polfinale pričakujemo povsem sproščeni in brez pritiska. Naredili bomo vse, da domači dvorani prikažemo tisto najboljše. Verjamem, da lahko odigramo zelo dober turnir. Naš prvi nasprotnik bo Beroe, ki ima odlično ekipo. Redni del tekmovanja je končal na prvem mestu, vendar to zdaj ne bo pomembno. Zaključni turnir bo zgodba zase. Prav vsaka ekipa bo naredila vse, da pride do konca. Želimo si, da bi bila dvorana na naših tekmah polna in da bi bili gledalci naš šesti igralec. Vsem udeleženim ekipam sklepnega turnirja čestitam za doseženo in želim, da se v Celju odlično počutijo ter tekme odigrajo brez poškodb.«
