Slovenia will smash Bulgaria as they were really crucified from media and fans after loss vs Great Britain! They need one blow out win for the fans and their confidence!

slovenia is having huge problem with quick ball movement but what is even more worrying their defense is nonexistant..
Zdovc made no progress with that..
48 points conceded in one half..
like I thought before the preparations even started this team is too much for Zdovc to handle..

[rafal10]

but Slovenia is playing better. Bulgarians are all time shooting for three.

but Slovenia is playing better. Bulgarians are all time shooting for three.

they are shooting threes because slovenia's defence is allowing them to do that..
Dragič for example was twice late on the same position to defend three pointer (Videnov and Ivanov) and he fouled twice..
they are always late..
and offense is not perfect..
for them (and everyone else) everything should come from defence, but when they suffer defensively their offense can't create easy points..
and when playing 5 on 5 sometimes they look lost and don't know what to do..
there are hardly any well organized plays..
teams like Bulgaria they should "kill" with tight defence and finish off in offense..
so far they haven't done that..
to me this looks worst then under Pipan..
ofcourse it's just a friendly, but it's one of the last friendlies..
more or less we should be able to see how they will look like on EC..

edit: better defense at the start of the second..

[rafal10]

yes, Slovenia isnt playing good but it is not normal that Bulgarians arent playing ANY long actions and they have points. PS: You know why Jabbar wont play on eurobasket??

[Picek]

PS: You know why Jabbar wont play on eurobasket??

he as a muslim is in ramazan (Ramaḍān)..
and it would be impossible for him to play considering he is not eating during the day..

[rafal10]

Bulgaria starts play technical basketball and it is better to watching. Interesting end of game.

BTW: I thought that Slovenia is better prepare to eurobasket

EDIT: Will Bulgars play on Eurobasket in those attires?

[rafal10]

haha nice motion of Ivanov. foul??!!what??!!!

[Alyosha12]

Does anyone have a link to the Bulgaria : Greece game?
I really want to see if our defense really sucks so much or if Bulgaria is really that good from the 3 point line.

Also when we are at the subject of the 3point line lol, i wen't back to look at 8 games of Slovenia, all except the games against Croatia and Lakovic is shooting 7/33 for 3 and Nachbar is shooting 7/28 in 7 games.

Judging from elaj's first post, this game may not be televised at all..

[Gyroscope]

I can't even find a score box

Any help with that?

Has the game even started? - or a cleaners' strike has prevented it
