People in Europe care only about winning, not about having the best stats in RS. He for sure isn't the best player in Nba. But he can have the best stats in RS for a decade.

I'm joking man, we've been through it before

Who has the better supporting cast?
I would say Slovenia. They have great shooters, great ball movement, some extra star power with Goran, and a reliable big in Tobey. Greece has a good coach and some reliable vets and some rising talent, but doesn't really have a second player who could have a decent career in the NBA. Maybe Dorsey will become that, we'll see.

You need to watch a lot more games from Slovenia lol... We would have lost to Belgium already if Luka didn't play huge minutes. Our offense dies when Luka goes to the bench and we only have 1 real center who is now also injured. Our coach brought like 5 guards and he already more or less benched one while the other two basically haven't even played so far. Our national team this year is more or less a disaster.

The question is who plays better team basketball, I believe that is the key. Not sure of the answer, though...

So Pozzeco is like Roberto Benigni of basketball.

This is a Eurobasket with 3 superstars: they have to play every game, every minute! So no foul. And if this is no foul, this is flop ^^ Think about Giannis' clutch alley-oop versus Croatia (he pushed with both hands his def), Luka's fist showed to a ref versus France, and now this flop is simply normal

Bro... your coach almost choked a referee. Did he got any punishment?

Because he lost this game his not? Everyone cares about winning, having great stats is a good thing.

I try to tell people here, he will be good this upcoming season.

It would be funny if Markkaneen and Fontecchio in Utah have a better season than Mitchell and Gobert in CLE and MINN.

Don't worry. Won't happen. I have heard there is a tankanatis -virus spreading in these European championships, so there is a good chance that they will catch it and will be on injured list 4 months.

Serbia badly needed someone like Bogdanovic. EL MVP was so meh.

Greeks and Slovenians arguing now which team is worse without their two stars. :lol:

It was a question from 1 person and was answered from 2 in good faith. Don't be so dramatic.

Why the **** did Jokic only play 29 minutes?

Biggest upset of the tournament so far.
Grats to Italy.
