Eurobasket 2022

[Soprano76]

Giannis is playing, Greece should aim for a medal. I suspect France are the favorites.

[Dutch Eagle]

Tournament starts September 1st. Final is September 18th. Greece plays in group C and starts against Croatia on September 2nd.

[Dutch Eagle]

First win is in the pocket: Croatia - Greece 85-89.

Dorsey and Giannis top scorers: both scored 27 points.

[Soprano76]

Good win. Croatia has had Greece’a number for several years. If PapaG can come back healthy and Sloukas plays to form then Greece are in good shape.

[Dutch Eagle]

Greece - Italy 85-81.

Giannis 25 points and Dorsey 23 points.

[Alphonse]

Big win in Milan

[Dutch Eagle]

UK - Greece 77-93.

No Giannis today. Sloukas 21 pts. Papagiannis 17 pts.

[Soprano76]

Sloukas and Papag being healthy will be the X-factor for Hellas this tourney. Another game vs Ukraine today. 

[Brklyngrk]

They played very well. Moved the ball around really well, great team defense.

99-79 win.

Giannis 41 points!!!!!

[Brklyngrk]

Saw the first half, they were really rough with Gianni.  Only way to stop him I guess...

[Soprano76]

Team played like s%$#! in the first half. Gianni turned it on in the second half.

Estonia tomorrow and the likelihood of 5-0 in the groups! 

[Blackhawk]

Easy win against Estonia, but Giannis left the game injured.

Next game is knock out against Czech Republic.

[Dutch Eagle]

Greece - Czech Republic 94-88. 

Some upsets at the last 16. Croatia losing against Finland and Serbia against Italy.

Quarter-Finals:

Germany vs Greece

Spain vs Finland

Slovenia vs Poland

France vs Italy

[Alphonse]

Germans any good now days?

[Brklyngrk]

They have some players plus it's in their homecourt...

[Spartan1]

Germany's best player Franz Wagner is questionable with an ankle injury. Without him, Germany could struggle. 

[Alphonse]

Cool, thanks guys

[Spartan1]

?? How do you go from leading 4 points at halftime to losing by +20 in the end?
Greece made Germany look like Team USA. ?

[Alphonse]

Got demolished in the 3rd quarter, unaccetable 

[Brklyngrk]

Germany just kept hitting 3s....we obviously could have guarded better but they just got on a streak..
