So Vasilopoulos/Koniaris or Mitoglou/Athinaiou.
After that I think that Skourtopoulos should keep Koniaris for his youth and then I do not find him any less good than Athinaiou.
After Athinaiou is the only 2, he surely has an advantage as Christodoulou says.
Regarding Mitoglou I think he is a better shooter than Vasilopoulos, but a less good defender, so it can be useful to play with Giannis, but I think the coach will choose Vasilopoulos.Gold medal at 2016 olympics prediction game

I feel that the squad vs Italy today will be the final one.
Athineou is needed because he is more experienced and can play easily at 1 and 2. Vasilopoulos is a better option as the final forward as he's a better defender, shooter and has a higher IQ than Mitoglou currently. Vasilopoulos has been stellar in his time at Kifisia, Aris, AEK and Peristeri. He's respected by everyone because he's a really fighter on court and in life.
Calathes and Giannis will make magic happen in the WC. Can't wait for the official games.Mi imamo svoga boga, on se zove Bodiroga.

Mantzaris is back. You can't get rid of him that easily!
Assuming Sloukas sits out the first round matches, the team will look something like this in first round
Calathes, Koniaris
Papanikolaou, Larentzakis
Papapetrou, T. Antetokounmpo, Vasilopoulos
G. Antetokounmpo, Printezis
Bourousis, Papagiannis
Given that Mitoglou didn't play at all today, I assume he will be cut before the team leaves for China.
Mantzaris will play in remaining friendlies and if Sloukas is able to play in WC, he will be cut again.

I get a feel that Koniaris will be cut and not Mantzaris. Koniaris is not ready for this level. Mantzaris has the experience.Mi imamo svoga boga, on se zove Bodiroga.

When Serbia employed a 3 and 2 zone when Giannis had the ball we didn't have a clue what to do (esp. when Nick was on the bench). Hail Mary 3's by Thanasis (he'll never do 5/8 again). Most nights we would lose by 20 points.
Skourtopoulos should have taken someone like Vasileiadis who can punish zonal defence.
Serbia did a great job shutting down out transition which was a key feature vs Italy and Turkey.
To say the truth I don't expect anything different from an average coach like Skourtopoulos. Giannis, Nick and Bourousis are going to have to play out of their skins if we are to reach the semi's.Mi imamo svoga boga, on se zove Bodiroga.

Not broken. Chipped.
That's why some play with mouth guards.
