Turkey - Serbia, best game in tournament so far. Unbeleavable Sengun and Larkin duo scores more than half of Turkey points and delivers win and 1st place for their team.
Germany destroys Finland 61:91 and takes 1st place in group. It's their lowest scoring game and first time when they didn't scored 100 points.
Lithuania survived against Sweden. Without Jokubaitis we look so poor. Like it's not enough, Normantas got ankle injury in first minutes of game. I'm afraid that in 1/8with Latvia our tournament will end...
I'm probably the only one who can't think of it. Do you think the score of the Montenegro-Great Britain match was normal?
How could Great Britain possibly beat Montenegro? They say anything is possible in basketball, but I don't think it's normal for Portugal to beat Estonia and Great Britain to beat Montenegro. When I see the betting odds, other things come to mind.
I saw both games and these outcomes is so unexpected. Before tournament I was sure that Portugald and Greeat Britain will be last in their own groups, but now they're in the next round. So, you can lose against powerhouses by 30-60 points, but it's enough to have 2 decent games against direct competitors and you have historic achievement
Maybe I'm not surprised that much about Montenegro loss. They looked poor in all games and their only win against Sweden was achieved in last seconds
I was talking about basketball in Europe in last 20-40 years in general, not about Euroleague or Eurobasket in particular. I did not want to go so in past in history, as basketball was way too much different than it is now.
Ok, I got it
