Lithuania NT 2010

[straight forward]

Vladas Garastas told to lrytas.lt that the goal for NT is to be among top 8 in Turkey. He also said that Šiškauskas and Songaila won't play for sure (nothing new) and that Kaukėnas is very doubtful (just as I thought).

Once again we go to WC with low goals. If next time we fail to qualify directly, FIBA should think twice before giving us a wild card 

Of course there is a slim possibility that we could still do well but I highly doubt that.

I don't trust Garastas anymore The official goal will be announced in march 25 while this is only Grastas' opinion. Anyway, a lot of speculations will come in the media while the season will be over and players will tell their word.

It's also clear that second NT will go to China (again).
