it would be nice, yeah. spain plays attractive and is always nice to watch. i want to see gasol and smodis play against each other : )
slovenia looks to be much more confident than normally. it's strange really as the team is very young. appart from one or two, there's about 5 nba 'stars' missing this time around, and yet they're doing much better. im thinking they will top germany (though it's going to be a tight one) but lose against lithuania..

this place is full of americans who think nba is the only basketball in the planet, despite they dont seem to win lately... britain doesnt even appear in this kind of events, they are not a basketball country really (eventhough they do have some interesting players)
so we would need more balcanic people around also some russians, germans, italians in order to have some hot talk on the matter

germans basically didn't play deffense..and rasho was blocking german shots (including nowitzki) on the other side..seems like deffense is really working nicely for slovenia..i hope it stays that way : )

croatia did great but lituania is simply better... it is a shame slovenia couldnt handle the preassure in the last 3 minutes... they had it in their hands... I guess thats why greece are such big champions ... I fear them

haha slovenia vs greece game was laughable. all the games they won up until then don't mean a thing now..they showed they're a bunch of amateurs. how do you throw away 16 point lead in the last 5 minutes? you don't..specially if you have one of the most experienced playmakers in europe. he decided to take things in his hands and blew it completly. it's always been like that for slovenia. they win matches that don't matter (they won greece last time, when they became european champions), but when it came to decisive match they always fail..eventhough they're at least equal with their opponent up until that time.
now all they need is to lose against germany for 20 points hehe.
anyway, i hope spain wins now..should bi lithuania vs spain in the final.

slovenia looked great all tournament, but indeed preassue seemed to affect them
greece was tremendous today, but spain won at the end... it was close but I am happy... greeks could say referees were against him... well referees were indeed bad
spain is in the final... never before did I feel that my country was so good in any other sport, these are happy days for spanish basketball

they turned out to be the most naive team in the history of basketball. they play good basketball when they're not under pressure..but they don't have the confidence to win thegames that count.
anyway, nice win for russia, i guess they played better than spain last night. hard to win games when your fg shots for two points are 20 % or something..
