Great job Mexico. Russia needs to beat Germany by 7 or more to go to semis. But, Germany looks favored to take no1 spot in that group. Going to be interesting now in Split between Croatia and Brazil,

Schroeder will become free agent this summer and declined a contract of 84 million for 4 years and hopes for more...

An injury at the Olympics would be a desaster for him, so the insurance is really expensive and the German baskeball did not want to pay...

On the other hand it seems that he wants to play, so in the end he could pay the insurance by himself to have the chance to compete at Olympics.

When you have dominant team, it's easier to be a good coach, it's that simple. Not everyone can do it even with the great team, so you have to have some knowledge obviosly. However, as the head coach his next adventures in Phoenix and Fenerbahce and now with Serbia have shown me he isn't that level. His teams looked like shit. Even with the bad team you have to avoid giving Italy 100 points at home. Even if you play against Efes you can't lose by 40pts when you have a team like Fenerbahce etc. I think he is a good development coach for younger players especialy guards but he lacks skill to be head coach especialy in motivating players to be at their best.

Czechia is gonna win the gold medal at the Olympics just to make me look bad for dismissing them as a team that either Greece or Turkey should beat easily xD

Turkey won but looked absolutely terrible against maybe the weakest team among all the tournaments.

 

 

Some crazy trivia: it was Uruguay's first official game against an european team since 1986 :yikes:and we're talking about a team that used to play WCs and olympics regularly for decades.

Another ugly Uruguayan trivia: we didn't host any international basketball between 2003 and 2017.

      Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Simulation

      By avlar · Posted

      I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?

      And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.

      Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.

      hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?

      If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota?

      Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.

      Russian athletes that have changed nationalities

      By avlar · Posted

      We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.

      AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
