You could order Giannis' official Greek NT shirt from the following site, from September 7, when they will release them.

http://www.sportarena.gr/en-us/eur/gr_nt_basketball_kits/gr-national-team-basketball-kits?product=21118

The thing is though that Giannis changed his number from 13 to 11 for this tournament and the the current photo in the site is with the old number. They will probably fix it until the day of release but I wouldn't do a pre-order before asking them about that yet. :wink:

Edit: Forget it they mention it with grey letters down below "Player number is indicative and will be finalised as soon as team roster for the Eurobasket is announced." so your are good to go. :)

Edit 2: Before you ask. No they won't release the white version from yesterday's game in this store. I read that in their facebook page. You may find it from some other store after the release day though. The store I gave you is the only one that takes pre-order atm I think.

my takefrom these three games (only watched a bit vs Turkey)
he played well (great?) vs Czech and Bosnia and struggled vs better competition.
I have to see more in next games vs turkey, lithuania, russia.
Is it Russia today?

For me I think Giannis looks good and basically a man among boys. Using speed, length and athleticism to dominate lessor athletes.

I like that he is gaining confidence and more control over himself, even if it is so far against minor league type competition. He has such free reign due to his physical prowess that he gets to effectively practice his moves against live competition. This will go a long way towards his development.

But, we really need to reign ourselves in a bit here it would seem. I look at this much like I look at players playing in SL and DL for the NBA. Fun to see. Top prospects should dominate. Seldom does that translate to the NBA other than signs of their potential and growth.

Giannis still has a long way to go against NBA level competition and I would gather he will not look as dominate against top competition even in this tournament. Heck the one on one ISO's he's doing in this tournament for the most part have been shut down by NBA teams. He needs counter moves / consistent jumper to open that back up.

Giannis will be a star in this league. This year my guess is he has more and more shining moments and continues his rise in the NBA but all-star Giannis may be a year or 2 away.

I have zero doubts that Giannis will become all star this year.

Spanoulis and perperoglou out for tonight.
It seems more rotations form the coach and hopefully more minutes for Giannis.

Yeha it seems Giannis slow start and struggle with defense and some screens .
According to commentators Giannis will get focused at 3 in order to try and improve his weaknesses .
