If Teodosic against France play like yesterday against Germany(9 reb. and 9 ast.)We should not worry <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Volko-volko(you'll know what I mean if you watch the games through balkansport.info)!! We've beat Croatia and are first in our group! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Also, mega win for Turkey today beating Spain 57-65. Very unexpected <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

FACEPALM slovenia. f*ck up a game againsta such a mediocre team as russia. Hopefully our players wont do the same mistakes in the 1/4finals
Too bad we almost ruined our great first half performance.
Anyway, we won but in order to make it to knock out games we MUST improve our shooting!
* Turkey outscored Spain in the last quarter(2-16) and won 65-57. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I admit I didn't see that coming... huge win!!

Yeah, an almost triple-double performance, awesome!!!
In the other hand though, if has one of his 30 point games, they should say the same thing!! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I'm glad to see Kalathes is trying 100% balls out to improve his game, and it's starting to show. I'm quite fearful for Zisis, his shooting percentage is in the brick percentage range <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> He MUST start making those short range jumpers again that we really need! Bouroussis seems to be recovering from his illness well, and luckily Fotsis and Vasiliadis have been shooting out the lights out. Still, it shows our immaturity as a team when we blew away a +21 point lead with Croatia to then be struggling to seal the deal until the dying seconds of the game <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mellow.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I also can't believe we lost against Poland. But referees clearly effects to teams destiny. If Great Britain didn't beat Poland, although we deserve to go through, we would be eliminated.
Now Turkey took the advantage back and carried a priceless win to second round. Emir Preldzic continued to make incredibly good jobs.

You can't blame referees...
Ok who will win guys Serbia or France? I'm guessing Serbia!!!
The French usually don't perform well under strong pressure, so I'll say Serbia will nab this.
France will win but they will lose in the knock-out round.
They are losers.
This year MAY be different though...
Teodosic VS Parker is the key matchup!

sure you didnt watch the game. Referees were really awful.
Turks should not blame referees for anything for the next 5-10 years. Just remember how privileged you were last year.

I was betting on Serbia having a stronger backbone too. I underestimated the French. Overtime!
Great great game and hats off to France that won with just one three pointer(in OT)!!
France deserved the win!
Serbia played the hole overtime without Teodosic but they have to feel lucky that Batum missed both free throws in the ed of regulation!

What a game!
What a simple miss Savanovic made for an easy bank shot and bucket- he just flinched somewhat and his shot came up short allowing France to walk away with a valuable win!
