It doesnt look that bad. Youll have a tough game under the rim but you have a better backcourt IMO

Yesterday we won reboynd's battle but we'll lose in the court and off the court

Luca Banchi is an overrated coach, he disn't understand iceland's playbook.

Take on the court together della valle and tessitori have destroyed every chanche to put in a good defense

Akele won't join NT

Banchi to replace him , have named 19 years old Elisee Assui, former under20 european champion with Francesco ferrari

@Toruko with this roster we'll lose even against Iceland

Your prediction proved far too accurate.

But Italy will be desperate tomorrow so the Lithuanian team better not complacently assume an easy victory.

So it wasn't even a victory at all for Lithuania. Italy showed far more composure than Lithuania did in the second half. Italy's deadly shooting from the free throw line also proved to be key for their win.

Procida and Mannion finally have shown up their Great talent

Now next window will be on february-March against Great britain, two though games

I hope to see new players, della valle showed that these type of games are out of his skills, expecially on the phisical side

We have young players like Diego Garavaglia, Giordano Bortolani, Elisee Assui, that can replace him

On the spot 4 i like Francesco Ferrari, our little jewel, but we need someone that help him: Akele, Grant Basile or other name, because Sasha Grant is more a SF that a PF

I'm very surprised about our big man Luigi Suigo's impact,:he's only 18, sky is the limit for him. I think Mega Leks has been a very smart choice for starting his career

How do you think about Suigo?

I agree with you... but i think Ferrari is more a PF than a SF and can play there (a lot of maturity for him, i was surprised). He just needs to be more aggressive on offense because he has the skills...

Suigo very confident and matured despite his age. Great call by Banchi... with another coach he would have left at home. He has still years to go before be a finished product but i see a lot of promise... finally for a italian big man.

Just one request for Banchi: STOP call Della Valle, please!

In the next window on february we have to add at least one pg if Mannion will miss(Flaccadori or Spissu(, at least one Pf(Akele or Grannt Basile), then i hope to see Caruso,Bortolani, fresh legs

If we want have a chance to qualify, we have to win the next two games against Great Britain

In summer against full roster Lithuania,, even at home, Serbia, Turkey with full roster will be very hard for us
