So Djordjevic was polite and politically correct, the hell I will do with that?:) Maybe Serbians love to eat in the streets and to prepare for the games in the yard, I don't mind. Diogen lived in barrel and people still quote him, I see your point here! As long as Italians and Georgians provides good wine, I wouldn't disagree!

He is just fucking with you. Djordjevic was furious since all the teams from our group had to board Charters at 2AM last night to go to Lille. Basically missing a night sleep. The second thing is that Teams get to have stadium for warmup only 45 minutes before the game, so they cannot do a full warmup with stretching which is unacceptable. Serbia is stretching in the Hotel etc.
 
For the first time in history the Eurobasket took place in 4 different countries. The primary phase is over and it is time to evaluate this model.

I personally think that this should be the model in coming Eurobaskets. One group per country resulted to filled arena's for the organizing countries. That means that every day at least four games attracted a lot of fans which is good for the organization. Also, organizing the Eurobasket in different countries gives the opportunity for countries like Estonia or Croatia to organize this event, whereas organizing the whole tournament would be less of an option for them.

Using this model, also countries like the Netherlands, Finland, Belgium will have the opportunity to host the event and promote the game. Since they have the necessary accommodations (arena's) to organize one group.

I agree. The multiple hosts model should be continued.

According to David Pick, Lithuania, Poland, Spain, Turkey and more NTs ramping up complaints to FIBA about poor hotel conditions in Lille.
Spain, Finland and Turkey had their dinners outside the hotel.
