Which team will win Eurobasket?

I don't remember when did we have the worst team, this is the first time since 1997 that we aren't playing on EC,,,,

Yeah, i watched the matches. It wasn't so much about the quality of the players because Macedonia and Israel have the same quality as you do, but the team play killed you. You tried to do everything with individual actions.
Markovic was a hell of a player but he's totally opposite as a coach.
Macedonia and Israel deserved to decide the final traveler in a direct duel because they played better than Bosnia&Herzegovina.
I kinda liked Macedonians to go to EURO because they had two very good guards in Stefanov and Ilievski and it's a pity these two won't be at Euro.
But Israel got a narrow win and they'll play at the EURO.

Israel are totally chanceless against Greece, Serbia and Russia and they'll certanly finish last in the group.

Our bigest problem was our coach Nenad Markovic, he was great player (still remember his 5points in last 10second for win in Lithuania) but he isn't good as coach, this is his first coach expirience...

He was a great player, scorer, shooter i remember him a lot, in one game we beat you by a threepoint shoot out by Alvertis at the end.

Go Espagna the referees know how to kill the teams to take the trophy.

Congrats to Russia which is the new European Chanpion and also the winner is Stez who predicted the final winner .

I thought I voted for Russia tpp, but now I see I didnt.
Kirillenko is a great player and I knew it!

Congrats to Russia team. Job well done.

I was right, as usual

Actually there was zero logic to my decision to support them, i was watching Rocky IV and the Russian beast Ivan Drago was beating up Apollo Creed as i typed
