I wasn't sure should I make this thread, but why not, when so many other teams have their own thread.
First there is one bad news(or actually three of them): Teletović, Nurkić and Đedović, three best basketball players of BiH will not play on Eurobasket:
- Teletović said that Phoenix Suns are not happy with him playing on Eurobasket after his health problems in last season
- Nurkić long time ago said he will not play for national team because of his differences with the key officals of the basketball Association(caused mainly because of his unacceptable behavior), and he had knee surgery recently anyway
- Đedović took German citizenship and because of that he gave up Bosnian citizenship(you can’t have both) and right now dude doesn’t have a legal right to play for Bosnia. And don’t force me to tell what I really think about his move.
In the absence of the Teletović every decent power forward is welcomed in our team, both of Sulejmanović (1995, Barcelona) and Karahodžić (1996, Unicaja Malaga) would be considered as serious candidates for final 12, but because of reasons I wrote in some previous posts hypocritical FIBA doesn’t allow them to play for BiH untill they turn 21
Nedim Buza, best player of Bosnian U20 national team now have a really good chance to end in final 12 players for Eurobasket.
Edin Atić, best player of Bosnian U18 national team is in this situation also a serious candidate for a final 12, but he was injured yesterday in the last game on U18 European Championship and now even he is a questionable.
Even Džanan Musa, best player of U16 national team was an option to play for senior national team in this situation, actually it will not happen only because of timing of the U16 European Championship, too close to Eurobasket. And he just turned 16 and never played senior match in a life, maybe it’s a best demonstration how desperate we are.
American Alex Renfroe supposedly should play for our national team on Eurobasket, but till now there is no a single information that he is on preperations, and who knows will he even appear.
Some players were joined to preparations for Eurobasket in the last moment, such as Edin Bavčić (who retired from a national team couple of years ago, and he was on the bench for the most of the time even at his prime), Emir Zimić (he is 29 years old and now he have a opportunity for a debute in national team), Adi Zahiragić (PG of Bosnian U20 national team which was relagated from division A, and his 7/41 for 3 and 2.4 TO per game are one of reasons why).
We are screwed badly.
As much as I know those are players right now in the training camp:
PG – Nemanja Gordić, Muhamed Pašalić, Adi Zahiragić
SG – Marko Šutalo, Adin Vrabac, Marko Jošilo
SF – Nedim Buza, Dalibor Peršić, Milan Milošević
PF- Miroslav Todić, Stefan Glogovac, Edin Bavčić
C – Elmedin Kikanović, Andrija Stipanović, Draško Albijanić, Emir Zimić
For the end, one verse from an old song that perfectly fits for our situation:
Yes it's gonna be a cold lonely summer
