Well we better start learning to properly drain the three, especially on a wide-open shot without a defender. Spain today was scared shitless of Serbia's 3p shot, hence not playing much zone, and still they got punished. We can make mid-range shots, but need to implement that more into our game. Biggest annoyance throughout the years has been our crappy free throw percentage. It's really inexcusable for any NT player to be shooting free throws under 70-80% <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thudown.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thudown:' /> <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mellow.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

That's why Kazluaskas is such a moron. Greece has some outstanding shooters like Vasileiadis and Charalampidis, that are also very good players and they were not put on the team. We would have probably never even seen zone with those two on the team. You are talking about two of the best shooters in Europe. Instead players like Calathes and Vougioukas were on the team.
If Greece does not select Charalmpidis and Vasileiadis next summer then the management behind the national team is just hopeless. They simply refuse for whatever reason to put a shooter on the perimeter. If Greece had no shooters, it might be understandable, but as it is, choosing year after year to not take two of the best shooters in Europe into the team is just totally asinine.
