Thanasis botched the pass (after an excellent steal, to be fair) but, thankfully, Giannis is Giannis.

Calathis was a disaster tonight.

Sloukas injured. Great. Just before the eurobasket.
Great.

Dominant win by Slovenia. This team just looks scary good.

Imagine being the best player on Earth and having to rely on old-man Calathes and tunnel-vision Dorsey to get you the ball in crucial moments.

Sucks to hear about Sloukas. He looked a step slow. And for Kosta, too, who has been playing really well.

Micic was a tough loss, too.

40 points for Giannis and a monster game by Jokic.

Aside from Papagiannis and Kostas Greece also needs a good Sloukas in the future games. Giannis is a machine anyway but he needs help scoring the when they can't feed him in the paint.

Serbia needs Milos Teodosic if Micic is out for a while.

That was a clean steal from Giannis and an easy dunk.

I think Calathes and Dorsey play for Greece though, not Serbia...

To each their own.

Why even have Calathes there?

Watching Giannis playing with Greece scrubs hurts.

Man, that's awful. Is it serious? Will he be ready for EuroBasket? He looked awesome this month.

Sloukas normally would be PG but he's hurt. Dorsey has the court-vision of Stevie Wonder.

Yes, but you had 24 seconds left, just needed a guy who can run the court and shoot a 3 if he gets open or semi open, or just get the ball at a 3 point line.

Who will win 2022 Eurobasket?
