TB Special:


Eurobasket Rankings: Part 1 (positions 19-24)



I like the rankings. I agree with France, that's a good call. I think the odds that I like the most are Turkey and Spain. Yes, I know that Spain is the favorite but they are so loaded that I would give them a 20-25% chance to win it all.

You were warned about this... now you will have nobody but you to blame...

How dare you copy TalkBasker articles on your website without a permission and associate our clean name with you?

If you don't stop copying our stories and don't delete everything you've copied so far, we will file a lawsuit... and that's a 101% fact.

Time to put TB co-founded Vilius' law degree to some good use... this has gone too far.

Source article + VOTE

^ Definitely suspicious as hell! The calls were non-existent in both cases, perhaps Ene did scream out? Possibly, that's difficult to tell, but Savas's 'foul' was non-existent. Kinda ironic that now Turkey is on the receiving end instead :P

So apparently Montenegran ref Sutolic has been thrown out of the Eurobasket because he tried to convince his colleagues to ref against Greece in the last Hellas-Montenegro game????

Everybody's doing the dirty one way or another to favour their team...

Anyone forget Eurobasket 2007 in Spain where the whole tournament was planned as such in Spain's favour, so that their NT could be rested as much as possible while everyone else was run down playing games constantly? Or perhaps how we were robbed in the semis vs. Spain, because they had an outrageously dishonest 'home court advantage' ? We all know what happened in the last world championship don't we? The list just goes on and on really :P

You think refs helped Spain agains Greece in that semis? You are wrong. Spain did not need help that time.. I watched that game, Greek players started dramatizing from the beggining of the game.

^ I watched that game live too, and it was the best game we played against the most legendary team Spain has managed to put together. We played hard, and we had their ass against the wall and their balls nailed to it.
