Sergey Karasev on Lionel Hollins, Andrei Kirilenko, his future and his wedding

Like Bojan Bogdanovic and Mirza Teletovic, Sergey Karasev has spoken to local media in his home country. In a lengthy and wide-ranging interview with R-Sport, a popular Russian sports site, Karasev was asked about everything from his coach to his wedding.

Like Bogdanovic, Karasev admitted to a somewhat uneasy relationship with Lionel Hollins, but one that he saw, in the end, as mutually respectful.

"Actually I wouldn't call his relationship with any player straight-forward, because he tailors his coaching approach to each individual. He plays his cards close to his chest but he's a top class professional.
