What they had to say:

Head Coach Alen Marcina

(On the team's preparations for Oakland...)

"Oakland, I know the coach obviously very very well being former teammates with Noah, I know he'll have his guys organized. They're on that playoff bubble, where three points really really matter for them, not to say it doesn't matter for us of course it does as well for us, for different reasons, but definitely going to be a playoff-type game. Something that we prepare for all year, since we have the mindset we play every game like it's our last game. So it won't be anything new for us, but we can expect that the intensity in Oakland's actions will be there from start to finish, based on them definitely needing the points. And it's a good team."

(On the differences since the teams faced each other in March...)

"We always go back five games and identify trends, trends from the game model perspective, trends from individual players that won't change and if they added new players what they bring. Like [Jaciel] Cedeno, that's a new player that didn't play against us [in March], so identifying his strengths, his weaknesses, making sure if he does play that we stop him. But they've been pretty consistent in terms of style of play."
