    I think we have some chances in Puerto Rico if we'll show this game's defence
    And if 3s will fall...

    Yeah but played some time as PF with Melli as 5... all in all a good game by him.

    Melli-gallinari-caruso
    Not a single true big man (apart Melli)... we'll suffer a lot under the basket as usual.

    The 2nd one...

    In Italy sport media just talks about football, tennis (especially now with Sinner Number 1), athletics, etc... basketball is not among the top of the chart.

    Tessitori out again... we can't say coach Pozzecco is his best fan!

    So we only could have just a pure center (Diouf, also recovering from injury) with Caruso without PT in Milan... so in the end we'll see much minutes from Melli @ 5 spot with Gallinari and Polonara as PFs. Not a great idea against a physical team like Lithuania...

    In my opinion this Will be our line up.in Puerto Rico
    It may be very well that at the end... The only doubt could be Diouf who is back from a serious injury and the Poz idea of having another perimeter player (Bortolani?) instead of a big man... we'll see.

    So Simone Fontecchio is officially OUT because of a small surgery (i think he decided with Detroit not to play)... bad news for us.

    You're overestimating our 3p%... it's very unlikely we shoot well if other team can play difense (see our last tournaments).

    For LTU NT news Valanciunas come back home and said in interview that his chances playing in qualification is * interesting *....and that it doesnt depend from his wishes.

    He added he wants play but he is free agent and nba free agency starts from July 1st at that time semifinal/final games in qualiifcation will be played. Insurance for nba player without contract is very problematic according to him.

    So right now looks Lithuania wont have Valanciunas for qualification tournament
    So we have the same "problem" since also Fontecchio is free-agent... and Lithuania plays better with Sabonis as center in Euro (and Valanciunas just backup).
