it's one of the matches that's almost out of interest. It's expected though. Still it's football football football here.

Anyways , Win for Turkey.

for the stats , it's turkish but i'm sure it can be changed to any available language.

The Good

CIV , might be a really bad team but good to see that Turkey managed to win this by a great margin just by playing quite relaxed, but there was good signs about the turkish team. especially hedo , he contibuted and he seemed relaxed about not being the go to guy.

Sinan Güler made an impact , i hope he continues like this.

The Bad

Maybe he wanted to rest the players on the guards rotation but Tanjevic still played with 4 big men and zone defense. That's not when the Turkey team at their best.

Ender Arslan, should really stop taking 3 point shots over and over. He should just penetrate and pass, He needs to welcome his role in the team. He is NOT the scorer.

you will have a lot of problems tommorow if you play like this with Russia.

I don't think Tanjevic will give up to play with 4 big men.Unfortunately we will lose one day because his stupid decisions

i think Turkey will be different against Russia, Tanjevic is at least not blind (yet).
it will be a hard match tho

He is practising against big size teams like Russia and Greece after I think. same goes for zone defence maybe! He obviously knows what he is doing better than us...

He tries to play with 3 or 4 big men until last year.But when we play with 3 or 4 big men we are being unsuccessfull.He didn't see that yet and I think he won't see.Because he is being more stupid when he is getting older.What is Kerem Gonlum doing at small forward?
