I´m pretty sure that we will see a much better Ege Akcay in the next years.
Yagiz Aksu took many 3 pointers even in U12 team, this was always his biggest advantage. He had a special shooting talent(we can see this for example on 13 years old Ömer Kutluay too) but now he lost this a bit. Sadly Lithuania had 2-3 more talented perimeter players as our best perimeter player Yagiz Aksu, this shows that our youth system has big problems. Yagiz Aksu is mature too but he is talented and his big plus is his good defensive IQ. Yesterday i watched the final, man what is this spanish Mario Saint-Supery(G) for a talent, just unbelievable, for Turkey it´s impossible to create a talent like this because you can find this talent bodywise but you wouldn´t let him play this way, therefore it´s impossible, very very sad.....

GOLD after 14 years! Ever since Valanciunas' generation. Fantastic summer! It even exceeded my expectations. And finally we took red hot Spain down

46:32 Lithuania leads against Spain in the final after 2 quarters. It's strange to see how our guards not only not worse than Spanish, but actually outplay them and out skill them. Special generation, guard presence clinics!

Lithuania win convincing win and ticket to the final! Really successful Youth summer for LTU. Now we should grab that gold, it's been a while. This generation can dominate in Europe in all next stages.

Lithuania leads the tournament in PPG, RPG (despite being extremely small), 3%, efficiency, second in assists. Total domination basically. But we somehow suck at FTs. Only 2 good FTs shooters, Laurencikas and Indrusaitis. IMO, those are 2 best players of the roster, closely followed by Jakucionis.

Based on/best of FIBA, LKF, MKL, RKL and basketnews.lt: Raupelis 204, Narvilas 200, Indrušaitis 198, Buteliauskas 197, Šacas 196, Juzėnas 195, Smirnov 194, Buika 194, Kreišmontas 193, Jakucionis 192, Laurenčikas 190, Žilakauskas 182

Man, we could win the game, it was so close unexpectedly from my side. I would definitely commit a foul at the end because their poor FT shooter Smirnov was holding the ball in last possession, plus the momentum was on Lithuanian side and that was so obvious they would have huge advantage in overtime. We chose to defend the last possession and they crushed us in OT. The case, Smirnov making only one FT and we get the last offense was not a worse scenario than the actual result that Liths wasted the last ball, but the game went OT.
Anyway, congratulations to Liths. Good game overall. Couple of promising players for both sides.

How Slovenia is able to produce so many elite guard prospects? It's pretty insane.
Here's Urban Kriflic. Been putting up big numbers and has some serious skills.

Damn, tough 4finals, expected easier ride, but Turkey played well. Our guys choked a bit, looked nervous, very talented generation, but not too strong mentally. Mainly Laurencikas' big cojones and creativity saved as, as well as Indrusaitis' scoring and energy. Jakucionis choked, he's a wild player. And Smirnov dude is hell of annoying dude. He's a scrub skills wise, but thinks he's Jordan
Demir Dogan is no prodigy as Toruko claimed. Far from it. Not with this Joakim Noah shot...

Coach Purlys is not coaching this team well. He doesn't set the hierarchy and allows scrubs to do whatever they want. We are coming back only when Laurencikas took matter into his hands with spot on facilitation. Lithuania is choking badly, missing all shots and even FTs. Turkey looks nice, moves the ball, very flexible. LTU's defence has been trash for some reasons though. Interesting second half ahead.
