My hat is off for Pocius - he was a key player during a comeback, both with his defence and ofence. Extremely fast and really annoying Spanish guards with his agressive style.
I was seriously doubting whether Kemzūra was right to choose Pocius over Lukauskis - well, it's obvious now I was wrong with that. Pocius adds different dimension to our team, when everybody else is strugling. He just doesn't settle for jumpshots, but attacks the target - and his defence was perhaps even more important than ofence!
P.S.: Superb atmosphere in Vilnius' streets after the win! Some crazy guy was shouting from his car "We'll be the champions!". It's still highly unlikely, but at least this team has shown it can beat anyone any day. And that's already something.

Seriously even if we end up knocked out without a medal,I wouldn't mind if we beat Spain."The worst part is wondering how you’ll find the strength tomorrow to go on doing what you did today and have been doing for much too long,where you’ll find the strength for all that stupid running around,those attempts to escape from crushing necessity,which always founder and serve only to convince you one more time that destiny is implacable,that every night will find you down and out,crushed by the dread of more and more sordid and insecure tomorrows.~Céline

I mean, sometimes, hear yourself, if it is joy to you that our NT win titles facing competition who don't have good players then I don't know what to say...
I wish to all other countries that their players are not injured, fully fit and willing to play, same as I wish to my country, so we can have a good championship, good basketball and well deserved winner.UZEO SI TROFEJ MACVANE MACVANE MACVANE!!!

You´ve got to search in very old archives to see 2 losses in a row (USA & France) and after a victory lose again (3 of 4)...and hoping not to fail again tomorrow!!!!!
Last quarter was simple unacceptable, we don´t have bench at all, with only 6 players at a decent level you can´t win a match....¿Who are Fran Vazquez and San Emeterio? I´m really dissapointing right now
Now, if we can reach the eight finals is really a hard way ¿Turkey at home? ¿Greece and its power?
This is the end of an era I´m afraid
3/9/2009--94:72 exhibition lost to Lithuania (ironically) in Vilnius
7/9/2009--66:57 opening match lost to Serbia at the Eurobasket Championship in Warsaw.
As far as three of four losses, you've got to go back five years to the Belgrade Eurobasket...
18/9/2005--85:77 lost to Israel
23/9/2005--101:85 win over Croatia
24/9/2005--74:73 lost to Germany
25/9/2005--98-68 lost to FranceLast edited by Federoy; 08-31-2010, 09:40 PM.
