Greek NT 2024

Do not underestimate the Greek heart.

It looks like the roles have been reversed...

hahahahahahah When it comes to Greeks you always have to think the opposite way. Greek teams are the most dangerous ones when they are with their backs to the wall even though I think that it wont happen this time.

When the "nothing to lose" mentality clicks Greeks defend like there is no tomorrow. I think you still have that in you

[fasoulaki]

I am wondering if Larry Kobra.will be allowed to play tomorrow. I would like to see some trash talk with Dennis to let Dennis go crazy again.

Larentzakis could sacrifice himself by making both of Dennis and him receive disqualifie

[fasoulaki]

We will loose either way

[fasoulaki]

So the expected outcome. We will never return to the top any more.

You act as if we had reached SFs at Olympics before..

I don't know if Giannis will want to play with the players who will stay in the Greek national team for the next few years, what would the best possible squad look like?
By removing Sloukas and Calathes who won't last much longer but keeping Papanikolaou who seems to be playing hard for the national team

Dorsey-Toliopoulos
Rogkavopoulos-Kalaitzakis-Larentzakis (ouch)
Papanikolaou-Papapetrou-Charalampopoulos
Giannis-Mitoglou-Thanassis (ouch)
Papagiannis-Kostas (ouch)

Yes I think it doesn't look very good for Greece in the next 5-7 years, maybe in the post-Giannis period things will improve but Spanoulis won't be able to work miracles as a coach with such a team.


But otherwise good tournament from Greece, but there could not be a miracle, Sloukas was clearly missed, but reaching the quarters is not so bad.

This is why I said the expected outcome. Judging from the performance I saw I realize that Greece capabilities are not sufficient for the top.

I agree there is a lot of ouch in this team. But maybe Giannis enjoys to play with his brothers and this is sufficient motivation for him.

You also said: "We will never return to the top anymore". I would accept it if we played for Eurobasket and not the Olympics.

You didnt have to watch the game for this. I would have predicted a similar vision before the game :P

[tonia]

Vezenkov is said to have to come to Paris to watch the QF games of Greece and Serbia and the woman waterpolo game of Greece tonight.
If Serbia loses, he should really consider skipping the polo game..

I employ a mehodology named extrapolation. Which means that you take already existing results to predict the future.

Looking forward to seeing how the Greek National Team performs in 2024! With all the excitement, it's also good to stay connected. I came across a helpful guide on maximizing data for MTN users that could be useful during the matches. What are your thoughts on the team's chances this year?
