Do you agree DeColo is a very overrated player? He is never good at important games. 0 hustle.
Slovenia - Latvia is a VERY must watch game. Both teams play really offensive and no prediction is safe.
Spain is a favorite against Germany but it's not going to be that easy.
Nobody cares.
>>78218931
Haha. Of course you cared until the match against Greece!
>>78218931
>lithuanian
>not caring about apehoop
>>78218931
You were pretty sure for the vicrory against Greece, werent you?
>>78218969
>talking about the most brain-driven popular sport.
>apehoop
What is your sport of choice?
honestly this is the most boring eurobasket ever tbqh
>>78218996
Can you beat Spain? I think you can.
españa

Not really. We stopped being a basketball country like 6 years ago and most people don't even care about group stage nowadays and start watching when they hear from news/friends that lithuania is "decent" and "might win medals" this year. Not even joking and funny thing is if we had a football team that played in Europa League atleast, football would be 10 times more popular than basketball here. Even today when zalgiris plays qualifiers to europa league we have full stadium (12,000). Now compare to last few lietuvos rytas seasons when we played in Eurocup, not even 2k fans per game, they even stopped playing in siemens arena and started playing in old lietuvos rytas arena that has only 2500seats.

>>78219079

>>78219083
No I'm butthurt about Russia. I enjoyed the match against Spain even if we lost.
>>78219100
o, i didnt know u lost agains russia. shame tb.h a spain-croatia final would have been great
>>78219036
Jokic, Teodosic, Raduljica, Kalinic, Nedovic, Bjelica, Simonovic all out. Gagi Milosavljevic in. Yeah, our chances are pretty good.
But seriously, I'm hoping we can beat them with sheer team spirit.
>>78219109
It's not a shame that we lost. It's a shame that we played like pussies.
>>78219162
Reunite with Yugoslavia in order to be great again.
>>78219227
No thanks. I don't wanna be poor.
>>78219243
How about joining the Austrian empire then?
>>78218802
that's not a proper OP for and Yurobasket thread to be desu
>>78218814
clearly overrated as a clutch player
landing clutch shots in irrelevant games is, well, irrelevant
the fact is he keeps choking in games that matter
>>78219286
Surprisingly, an average Croat wouldn't kiss as much as as right now. But nah, don't wanna lose our national identity either.
>>78219319
as much ass*
>>78219227
they would murder each others, it wouldn't work
>>78218802
Latvia or Slovenia?
>>78219341
pretty even to be desu
We should start making EuroLeague threads when the season starts.
>>78219387
Why not Eurocup?
>>78219400
Yeah, that too desu
Even some domestic leagues like ACB.
>>78219387
that german guy try to do it sometimes but it always end on page 10 with 7 replies from 3 different posters (one of them being a Murrikan greentexting about European basketball) within an hour
people just don't give a fuck about games that don't involve their own team, especially when EL is basically 25% Istanbul and 25 Spanish teams
>>78219387
Maybe just a general thread for all euro basketball competition, sort of like /motorsport/ ?
>>78219424
Yeah, that would be better actually.
>>78219424
How would we call it /eurobasketball/ general?
>>78219465
Something like that, we will figure it out as we go. Hopefully it won't die during the american hours.
>>78219503
barely more than half a dozen guys are not enough to let a thread alive
soon
IIHF > FIBA
thenks bye.
>german press already calling schröder the next nowitzki
>Latvia
>Smaller population than Slovenia
>Poorer than Slovenia
>In the corner of Europe
And yet they are still better than Slovenia in team sports.
latvia win
>>78220867
What? You are better than latvia in basketball (except today) and football and their hockey is also not impressive at all.
Their best ever finish at the World Championships was 7th place in 1997, 2004 and 2009. At the 2014 World Championship the team finished 11th.
