Eurobasket 2025

[Serbian_Layup]

Dreadful games from Spain and Germany. They combined for 11/46 from three with Germany shooting 29% from the field. You would think that Bulgaria and Belgium needed to shoot the lights out to beat them on a bad shooting day, but the thing is that both Belgium and Bulgaria shot just 32,8% and 35% from the field respectively and still managed to win. Spain actually had higher FG% than Belgium. Those two games were real brick festival. I think Serbia will join them tonight with similar shooting form vs Georgia

The UEFA EURO 2024 qualifiers began with a surprising result as Spain, the host nation, lost 1-0 to Latvia. This unexpected defeat highlighted the unpredictability of sports, much like how to train a mini goldendoodle, known for its friendly and predictable temperament, can sometimes surprise owners with bursts of unexpected energy or behavior. In contrast to Spain's stumble, other favored teams won their matches as anticipated.

The content provided on the Platicas Prematrimoniales Catolicas may cover various aspects essential for a successful marriage, such as effective communication, conflict resolution, financial management, family planning, and understanding roles and responsibilities within the marriage. Additionally, given the cultural context of Mexico, topics related to family dynamics, traditions, and cultural expectations may also be addressed.

In this system, three teams qualify from a group of four, and some groups include host teams who are already qualified for the main tournament. A surprising result came from tree removal in Milton area, where the hosts lost to Latvia. In all other games, the favored teams secured their expected victories.

On a side note. The Greek coaching staff is sidelinening almost all EL players against the Netherlands. .... Well, now we do have EL players and national teams decide to rest them. They are only used against the better teams. Which is perfectly understandable as one wants to integrate more players in the national teams.

If the qualification system allows the teams to choose different rosters from game to game or window to window I am strong in favor to give young or unexperienced players the opportunity to play. Maybe a good mixure of experienced players and young talented players can give the teams the maximum out of these qualification games in terms of team development.

Why is Spain losing so many matches? Really disappointed

[HendrikMG]

This is really exciting! So much has changed since the last season, and I’m sure even more will change before it begins. I just hope I can find the right betting site that suits me, so I can place my bets on the games.

[Kaitlynn]

Yeah, I'm definitely interested in betting on games too. A friend of mine mentioned that Stake Casino is pretty good. Have you given it a try?

[HendrikMG]

I’ve heard about Stake, but I haven’t had the chance to try it yet. Is it any good?

Yes. It's really good. You can read about them here https://mwwire.com/2024/11/05/ap-pol...s-of-the-year/ . Let me know what you think.

[Straight forward]

It's crazy 4 experts didn't mention Serbia among EB 2025 and 2 of them mentioned Slovenia. Makes me doubt they are good experts.


And finally, the big one: who is actually winning it all in in 2025?


IC: France. Do you really need an explanation for this? They have an Olympic gold to tackle at home before the next FIBA EuroBasket, they've got the most exciting youngster in a long time with Victor Wembanyama, and the fact they failed so bad at the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2023 could serve as a reminder to bring their A-game day in, day out. That's a scary reminder for the rest of the world.

DH: Early favorites? Well you still have the Olympic Qualifying Tournaments and Paris Olympics to add more storylines. But hard not to look at Spain, France, Germany and Slovenia as well as Greece with Vassilis Spanoulis at the helm. And if I had to pick one: when it doubt, go with Spain.


JT: As good as Germany have been the past two summers, I think they can be even better by EuroBasket 2025. They will have continuity, self belief and the experience of having reached the podium in 2022 and the world title triumph in 2023. Two other title contenders - France, with Victor Wembanyama, are going to be scary. Ditto Slovenia with Luka Doncic.

TT: Germany all the way. I know it is too early, but the World Cup winners are my favorites to win everything in the next few years. Amazing roster, players that combine many different characteristics, shooting bigs, versatile forwards, off screen shooters, physicality and some great leaders. What else could you ask from a team?

Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

What I think is that, assuming all teams come in full rosters, Serbia, Germany and France are class better than rest of teams and medals will be shared between those teams. But that's just theory, it doesn't mean it will be like that. Spain is still dangerous, as well as teams like Greece, Italy, Lithuania, Turkey, but it would take a real improvement from these teams and possibly playing well above their level to be a serious threat to Serbia, Germany, France and maybe Spain. I can't see how Slovenia is going to make a noise at Eurobasket. All their role players are pretty much washed up and not enough. When they add a few new quality players next to Doncic, then we can talk about them seriously. They have interesting young players/talents but still too young to play at Eurobasket.

My rough power ranking looks like this

Tier I
Serbia (if Jokic is on board)
France

Tier I B
Germany (Because of lack in the center position)

Tier II
Spain
Turkey
Latvia
Greece
Lithuania.
Italy

Tier III
Slovenia
...

Spain still has elements to be very solid but the country lacks top notch star players. We can debate about Turkey and I might lack utter objectivity but I dont care. Latvia is my dark horse.

About Greece: its all about Giannis. The team is too old and I dont expect Sloukas to participate.

Lithuania: they can give a good fight but the back court is too weak and they also dont have the skill set of the German team. But Lithuania is always Lithuania.

Turkey: I have a very good feeling with a ready Shane Larkin. I dont fear the offensive side but our defense was always a problem. I just dont want a group of death and no France in the group please god please.

If Turkey wins a medal in the Eurobasket 25 I will dance like the jiggly boy enthusiastically.
