FIBA Eurobasket 2017, 31/8-17/9

Greece-France is obviously the game I worry about today. If we win we can play the rest of the games with the confidence of the favourite. If we lose, the doubting might start.

French squad has more inner questions than your squad. Sometimes, in team sports with the ball (except handball), the French nat. teams just flame out regardless of their talent. Lets call them chemistry issues. I don't sense that from Hellas.

France played OT vs Finland. Diaw 35 mins. B2B

With some good individual play from guys, we can make it happen

Androslav this is true. If there is something I appreciate in Greek teams is that they are composed and able to punch above their weight. But IMO France has more talent in this tournament.I'm also worried about Greece's offensive black outs.

 I think the odds in this game are about even.

Yeah, the French team's back is against the wall and it remains to be seen how Tony Parker's "heirs" (De Colo and Fournier) deal with it. As a French supporter, I'm not feeling really good about this game but I expect it to be close through the end.

Calathes is our best guard. Let that sink in.

Having said that, Thanassis looks good rn. We have to play fast and he is prolly our best finisher at fast breaks.

[greece66]

Ederson, any chance you get me an autograph of this guy?

[greece66]

69-77

Greece still in the game

Update: we double on Diaw, he passes the ball, basket. Already happened three times.

.........from Diamantidis, Spanoulis, Papaloukas, to Calathes being our best guard.... jesus

Unfortunatly my tickets are on the other side ....

In all seriousness it was more entertaining watching the fans than the actual game.... The Greek NT looks a lot like the three years ago celtics. Lot's of good secondary pieces but no leader. And Missas is no Stevens  to make ti work .....

[greece66]

Yesterday's results. Russia looks good.
