I wouldn't worry about it. Greece has a very high amount of sport newspapers and sites, and everybody is into sports.
They have to write something. So if at a 3 hr training they decided that he should sit out the last 15' because he went to hard f.ex on an exercise, they will write something about just to write.

If it was serious then they would probably have 10 articles by now, interviews of the leading orthopedics each with a different opinion, interview of a neighbor who watched him limb, interview of a highschool schoolmate who kicked him on the knee 10 years ago, and so on.

You are absolutely right. I could not find any injury updates today so there is no Problem I assume.

(But to be honest: That personal therapy with Spanoulis Thing did not come out until 2 days before the the team lfet for Belgium.
Nobody told the public that Spanoulis did not practice with the team.
Sometimes the greek reporters hide the truth to keep good relationship with the Federation and the coach)

I don't think there is something serious though

Spanoulis has always been good in P.R. :lol: he might even dictate to them what to write. Giannis is too innocent.
I read that he did the practice and stopped for the discomfort. Jankovic did personal training that day so maybe it was something worst. We will know for sure in a couple of days in Turkey.

Η ενημέρωση της ΕΟΚ:
Η Εθνική Ανδρών ετοιμάζεται να δώσει συνεχόμενα δυνατά τεστ στο πλαίσιο της προετοιμασίας της για το Ευρωμπάσκετ 2015.
Το πρώτο θα διεξαχθεί 14-15 Αυγούστου στην Κωνσταντινούπολη, το δεύτερο 21-23 Αυγούστου στην Ξάνθη και το τρίτο είναι το «Ακρόπολις Eurobank» και θα φιλοξενηθεί στο ΟΑΚΑ, 27-29 Αυγούστου. Και τα τρία τουρνουά θα καλυφθούν τηλεοπτικά από την ΕΡΤ.


For the majority this might sound greek (and it is), so:

The Greek Basketball federation has agreed with ERT (Public TV Provider) for the live broadcast of the 3 friendly tournaments:
14-15 Aug in Istanbul, Turkey , 21-23 Aug Xanthi, Greece and Akropolis Tournament Athens, Greece 27-29 Aug.

The Public TV ERT has a lovely site (in Greek) : http://www.ert.gr/ , on the top black panel options, there is an option in English called WebTv. Which if we are lucky will show the game without country restrictions since it is friendly. If not since it broadcasted by ERT it will be widely available from other sources.

Cheers,

Alex

Next game today 14th Aug against Bosnia Herz in Istanbul, is at 17:30 greek time = 09:30 CT.
It seems that www.ert.gr official stream will be only in Greece from ERT2 http://program.ert.gr/Ert2/ (tha'ts what the Web TV GR symbol means at 17:30). It should however be available at other sources.
Unfortunately at that time I am at a damn meeting at work which I couldn't get out of...

Ok you win. I'm still not staying up. Also surely the Internet can help with that assignment.

It's starting in 5 minutes guys!
In case http://webtv.ert.gr/ert2-live/ works outside of Greece and you are busy atm you could actually watch it later since it's a "the last 24 hours" stream. So you could watch it tomorrow at the same hour the latest if you want.

If its geoblocked try using hola with either chrome or firefox.
