Played for BC Kyiv (2007–2008)

There are several American players. The best one is MaCalebb on Macedonia. Russia had one good guy back in the day too. Pretty much if you play in their country, preferably non-EU country, then it is easier to get neutralized. Also depends on the country's laws.

I believe McCalebb never even been in MCD before he was naturalized.

Spain destroying Croatia. Big fail from Turkey against Findland.
Jonas facing today Krstic. They battled against each other in 2011 Eurobasket now Jonas is two years older.

Damn Spain just whopped Croatia.

Rubio looked like he polished up his shooting being able to nail the pullup jumper now with rhythm.

Play of the game was Fernandez's reverse alley-oop. That play was too nasty.

Macedonia vs. Montengero amazing game. Vucacic has been ok. Rice from Boston College is beasting

1 pt difference 10 seconds left...

MONTENEGRO (edit) wins after bad no call (guy hung on the net)... crazy game. Macedonia was winning by 7 with 3 minutes and shouldn't have put themselves in that position nevertheless.

Been watching Spanish friendlies, Rubio's mid range pullup was looking really good.

That was a beautiful P&R at 1:01. Anyone know his final stat line for this game?

2011 game? 18/5 20 minutes. Krstic finished with 21/4 28 minutes. They faced each other number of times back in 2012, that was the best European center rivalry for me. I think they felt that too, you could see the conflict and contest. Always looking forward to see Jonas vs Krstic.

What? Montenegro won by 1 according to official box score. Am I blind?

He meant Montenegro. Obvious mistake, just look at the following sentence.

Ideal result for me will be Serbia wins showing great chemistry and offensive balance but JV drops 40-20.

That would be interested. How bad a team should play if they lose a game in where one of their players drops 40-20?

Now you're on to something.. What is the all-time best performance by 1 player in a losing game?
