Superb news
Now I don't know who would I prefer to battle in the final - France, which is on the rise, or Spain - the only other team, that haven't lost a game in a tournament

Lithuania and France reached the golden medal game. Although I would prefer Spain, because Liths have a bad tradition while playing with more athletic black guys I think if Liths won't involve into a run-and-hit game, they'll have quite good chances to take the first place.
BTW. If you would like to bet here, in Lithuania, bookmakers give a better chance for Liths.

Now I'm scared, but not because of the france, but because according to following article linas kleiza is playing for Lithuanian U18 NT, and as far as I know he's 21 years old and we could be disqualified

Congrats to Spain for winning the bronze medals! and rest in piece Guillem...

Congrats to France. Final score is 72 - 77, we made too many mistakes and they just outrebounded us by 17 balls
They are just too athletic for our kids... But anyway, silver medal is good enough I think
Let's go for beer!
