tapēc, kad viņi ņem uz papīra 9 eirolīgas spēlētāji + Rikijs Rubio, bet mums Rihards Lomažš, Gražulis ir vienīgie, kas spēlē top līmenī Eiropā. Takā uz papīra Spānija pārāka, bet atsūkāja Japānas trešās līgas spēlētājam. 🤣🤣🤣
I am Greek but we are keeping our heads low. Unfortunatelly no Greek national team has reach the greatness of Papaloukas-Diamantidis-Spanoulis team. Every Greek national team lives in the shadow of this great team, Giannis cannot compete with FIBA rules
Giannis cannot compete with Fiba rules. Meanwhile he was arguably the best player of the tournament being 1st in scoring and 1st in efficiency. Almost 30 points per game and he couldn’t even compete😂😂😂
@no It's always easy to blame the best player, although some of Giannis's flaws are more visible in FIBA's competitions. He's still a beast. His teammates in your national team are very questionable. It's not easy when you're doubled or tripled and you have to throw the ball to wide open Brick Calathes.
@@NK-dj7noin the last Eurobasket the team was a mess largely because of him. No systems, the only system was "give him the ball". And he shot 20% on 3pointers. So the important are not the stats but how he impacts the team as a whole.
@@aftastosk6016 he was the first scorer of the tournament and the more effecient but you mentioned that he had 20% on 3 pointers, something that we know he is not good at and he does not even need to. Το ασπρο μαυρο. Οτι να ναι πραγματικα
guys check out on euro cup because Toliopoulos is not just the last two months that he is performing he is in good shape both in Greek league and euro cup and we speak about a player that will have his next step and already has experience in euroleague
Nice video i respect your knowledge and love for basketball. In my opinion i think something good is going to happened with the Greek National team. Spanoulis knows very well what we have been missing all these years (15) and is an inspiration for the players. And even if the team does not have a classic shooter, they can make it... Remember that the best Greek team of all times 2005-2006 also didn't have a classic shooter (maybe except Fotsis). We will see.
Donatas my friend. The Spanish coach always manages to put together a team that is very homogeneous and everyone knows their role. That's what makes them so strong now. Always peppered with exceptional players.
Donatas do not want to disrespect Spanish basketball team and clubs. But he consistently does it and they keep proving him wrong (I'm starting to suspect that it's because your main followers base is Serbian and Greek). I'm surprised that a Lithuanian goes for France knowing that we always beat them because they can't play as a team and have big egos. Just like Lithuania always punch above it's weight, Spain does too.
Common i will try to simply explain, if we bring second team sky is limit! If we merge second and first team and take this sirously we will win everything! So our problems is if get everything sirous and have time to prepare this guys willl be dominate. Problems comming from injury, time, and willl! Its difuculty on this schedule make all dice have on the way how we woht, but we always have that kind situation that second team is better for this commpetiton! Whitout stars, whitout predictions!
Why do you dislike Collet? Is it because of the 2023 world cup results or is it also for other reasons? As a french man, my pov of him is that he is a good basketball technician but a bad leader. Would love to hear actual reasons from people here as I feel like the french media don't want to talk too much about him negatively so they can keep interviewing team France's staff.
I dont count any country who imports foreign players in national team. Thats patetic. As Serbian, if Serbia gets any into national team, I will stop watching them.
So brother by your statement , Walkup is a wuss per se ? Especially when he , himself , has admitted he feels Greek ? And more importantly when he decided to choose to receive Greek citizenship by his own volition ? I do believe his performance in the match against Czecia on Friday when he was named the MVP was more than enough proof that he actually CARES about the Greek NT and is not after any publicity stands . Many naturalized players should take his attitude as an example for what to strive for when choosing to represent a country .
@@panoskakkavas4022 he felt Lithuanian and said it many times, but Lithuania federation even did not concider to begin procedures.. When you pay money for American to play in Greece N. team it shows smth. And does not matter what Walkup says. Greece is rather big country compared with Lithuania and Latvia the countries which do not cheat.
@@toddmobby1595 Paid money to play ? You believe Mitsotakis gives 2 cents of a dollar about our national team ? Hardy har har . Not even the Aggelopoulos brothers would even consider it to be precise . Thomas made the decison on his own and he told Bartzokas who then told Olympiakos presidents who then contacted the Greek goverment about 2 months after . So tell me exactly where you see the importing here ?
@@panoskakkavas4022 officially you won' t find such info. But you could ask why american wants second citizenchip? Not to be treated as foreigner in Greece league, get bigger money and safely stay in same team for more years. So money interest is there even in this case.The super fast naturalisation process showed that Greek federation wanted him to be in NT immediately. Also directed money maybe in agreement to pay bonuses when team would win medals in one or another tournament. Interestingly enough you did not comment on 2.5mln polulation counties which manage not to naturalize Americans. Turkey example is poor example.
@@toddmobby1595 Politics in sports is something I wash my hands clean off . Although I must admit that I never pay attention to such details , for anything concerning club owners in Greece as well as our Federation is certain to be tied to personal favors and even worse , I do stand about my original comment here . And if anything , the man in question has proven his value on the court as well as in his words and merit . Thus , I will stand by my decision and support him for making this decision and trying to be as diligent as possible about it .
what an arrogant bullshit talk - Germany may not have the best individual players but by far the best team spirit. and the fact remains - the strongest team wins
you guys are crazy... Serbia #1 they will win olympics , look at this potential roster : Jokic, milutinov, bogdanovic, kalinic, nedovic, avramovic, pokusevski, N.Jovic, N.Topic, MILOS Teodosic, S.Jovic, Petrusev, Marinkovic, Dobric. We are so stacked with the best talent and team play and off course the legend PESIC
Avramović didn't get injured against Milan, he straight up died. This now is a no balls clone that can't do anything. Avramovićglazing needs, tostop, absolute sham of a player, a glass bottle in the freezer would last longer than him in a season.
You have to look at the condition and financial support of the nation you are evaluating!!!🤔 France and Spain have much greater possibilities that Serbia have, and they didn't make any bigger results on the contrary!!!🤔😉🙆👍😎😎😎🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
@@uvajzadunjeutuzakinje Yeah Serbia beat Canada by 9, Canada team trained for over 2 weeks, Serbia have over 3 or 4 years playing the same squad. Now it will be different

Counting on Toliopoulos's form this season to boost Greece's shooting and scoring
As always, its really hard to choose the best teams, especially from Europe.
For me :
serbia-greece-spain with every team able for both 3 positions 1,2,3
Greetings from Greece
Guys just wanna say once again that you are doing such a great basketball content.
Thank you!
I guess those "experts" from Lithuania have no clue where Latvia is.
Petrusev has a key role lately in Oly ..... especially in Greek league cup final 8 but in Euro league also
Petrusev will be one of the future stars in the team of Olympiacos.
I'm French and I agree that I don't trust Collet anymore
Why are you guys leaving 🇱🇻 out?
In fact they just beat Spain 🎉
tapēc, kad viņi ņem uz papīra
9 eirolīgas spēlētāji + Rikijs Rubio, bet mums Rihards Lomažš, Gražulis ir vienīgie, kas spēlē top līmenī Eiropā.
Takā uz papīra Spānija pārāka, bet atsūkāja Japānas trešās līgas spēlētājam.
🤣🤣🤣
Spain is not the same team anymore, new players without much experience, it will take some time

Thomas Walkup💪🇬🇷
Donatas my friend. The Spanish coach always manages to put together a team that is very homogeneous and everyone knows their role. That's what makes them so strong now. Always peppered with exceptional players.
Italian coach? Americans Lorenzo Brown, Ibaka, Montenegro guy Mirotic those exceptional guys. Get a life.
@@toddmobby1595 hahahaha moron 😂😂😂
Don't forget that Okobo, Fall, Tarpey, Causeur, or Beaubois were not even selected for this window. Allez les Bleus! 🎉❤😊
Braļukas.. Spain #1? When are you going to start taking Latvia seriously?
Donatas do not want to disrespect Spanish basketball team and clubs. But he consistently does it and they keep proving him wrong (I'm starting to suspect that it's because your main followers base is Serbian and Greek). I'm surprised that a Lithuanian goes for France knowing that we always beat them because they can't play as a team and have big egos. Just like Lithuania always punch above it's weight, Spain does too.
About Spain, why did Mirotic play for them and not his actual ethnic background? Also, why isn't he still playing?
serbia should be 1
In full roster,for me top5 in the world are USA,Canada,Serbia,France,Spain
🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

Spain 💤😴
what an arrogant bullshit talk - Germany may not have the best individual players but by far the best team spirit.
and the fact remains - the strongest team wins
Teams made of Fiba competition players without NBA players
Why is Germany not here or do I not get the purpose of the ranking?
No players from NBA only Fiba competitions
@@dzoniii aaaahh okay thank you
Germany got 2 tournaments well and all of sudden they became "gods" they will be gone soon,not a powerhouse and was never one
they have no clue about strength off teams my list from EU 1.Latvia 2.France 3. Germany 4 Serbia 5. Lithuania
Serbia played without EL players: Milutinov, Kalinic, Lucic, Jovic...
Guys.... can you be more wrong? :D
As a Serbian, I guarantee that Serbia is not in the top 3 with this line-up.
Srbija je sa svakom postavom medju 3

Very simple. World Cup 2023 :
1. Germany
2. Serbia
3. Canada
4. USA
5. Latvia
The end.
Greece had the wrong Ami as neutralized player...they need a 3 point expert.... grayson allen should have a greek great great grandfather
Don’t forget spain won the eurobasket with its B team
just because of Mr. Brown 😉
**The real MVP of Eurobasket 😅
You do not win a Eurobasket with Brown😂 That’s just saying the other teams are shit
Bulgaria beats Germany 2 days after this video.
Bullshit...everyone knows the best team at the moment - Latvia!!!! Look at winning %

Druze radi se o sledecim utakmicama. Nece nam igrati icraci iz nba a nece ni milutinov
Sadly not even half of these guys is going to actually play
win Olympics? lol remember what happened last time Serbia made the Olympics and met USA in the gold medal game?
pardonnnn drug@@motmi2356
Ako Teodosic dodje da igra onda necemo ni do cetvrtfinala da dodjemo

And best teams are Latvia and Estonia 👌😂🤣😁👏

No Latvia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
