For the Poruguese friends I would like to say that if their team wins Latvia and Israel with most players being some kind of amateurs, then good things are coming if they can take advantage of some of the young kids they have at their youth teams. As a matter of fact I saw a game of the previous U18 Fibaeurope competition and I really liked Claudio Fonseca although he seemed a bit afraid of physical contact which I could not understand because he has strong body. Why was he not at the men national team?

Still, women basketball in greece is way way behind (sadly).

Well, not exactly. The italian federation renewed the Recalcati contract a couple of months before the Euro Championship (probably thinking we would qualified at least for the pre-olympic tournament)... 2 years @ 800.000 euros...
So, even with the recent failure (the third consecutive after Belgrade '05 and Japan '06), they can't go Recalcati home (because of the high payed contract)... they were blind to give him a new contract before the EC and here in Italy we're ALL angry...
BTW Belinelli just said next year he could not play for the italian NT (and so Bargnani) if his NBA team wants that...
