Jonas Kazlaukas will announce his preliminary squad in some days, here is my guess:



Diamantides

Papaloukas

Spanoulis

Zisis

N. Calathes

Vassileiades

Pappas

Pelekanos

Papanikolaou

Kaimakoglou

Perperoglou

P. Calathes

Fotsis

Tsartsaris

Printezis

Mavrokefalides

Bourousis

Vouyoukas

Mavroedes

Big Sofo (?)

If you are saying Glyniadakis and Vasilopoulos should not be there because of the seasons they had, then Pat Calathes, Nick Calathes, Kostas Tsartsaris, Loukas Mavrokefalidis, and Kostas Papanikolau should not be there either.



If it is based solely on the performance during the season not one of them should be anywhere near the national team.



If a guy is good enough to make the team, he can make the team though, regardless of the season he had. I don't know about Vasilopoulos and Tsartsaris being good enough anymore to make the team at the positions they are in. But Glyniadakis could still handle being a third string center with no problem at all if he's needed.



I don't get everyone's fascination with Nick Calathes. Sorry, but I just don't. There are better and more experienced guards that should be invited over him such as Manolis Papamakarios and Marios Batis and especially Kostas Charalampidis because he can shoot, unlike Nick.



I just don't like how the Greek federation has moved to this NBA style of picking the teams now, while other nations are still simply sending the best 12 available players, Greece is doing like the NBA and hand picking guys regardless of whether they are good enough or not.



The fact is at this moment Nick Calathes isn't as good as Igor Milosevic is, yet somehow Nick just has this free ride to the national team. I don't get it. The same with Papanikolau. I think PAO and Olympiacos influence is taking some kind of precedence over the national team and that's just ridiculous.
