One of the better things happening for Italy was all these guys being out, you wouldn't had same production from Mannion if Belinelli is playing not to mention two key players Polonara and Fontechio. 

yeah, I agree with you...

 

but I think we need at least someone else to play the atypical 4-5 role in Tokyo, because Melli and Tessitori alone aren't enough...

 

so, I think Gallinari and Datome should be back (as said, Datome is the true captain of the team and he will be back for sure if he's healthy)...

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,

For tokyo, will be back for sure GAllinari and BAnchero. Datome and Belinelli? I don't know. Hackett not.

Banchero is in Duke's hands...I'm not sure they will release him, especially if he has to complete some classes to be eligible to play the next NCAA season (which is the only thing that counts for Duke and for him)...

 

Belinelli must stay home...he clearly didn't trust this group's chances and his presence in tokyo would destroy the locker room's atmosphere...

he's another Sinner...he doesn't deserve a place with our National team as a man more than under any technical point of view (and frankly he's not that useful to the team on the floor, too after we've watched Mannion and Pajola do what they did this week...I'd rather invest on Spagnolo replacing Spissu, but it won't happen, not with Sacchetti as a coach at least)...

i'm agree, but... Italy is a fantastic team, with too few players. In Belgrade, only 6-7 men was really in play. Spissu, Abass, Vitali, Moraschini, are about nothing... we can give 4-5 players? I think is impossible. So, welcome GAllinari, welcome Banchero (who had choosen Italy. Why, if not for Olympic GAmes?), and welcome Datome. More doubt for Belinelli, stop for Hackett.

Before the tournament, I expected Brazil to lose at some point, but after reaching the final and against Germany, among all teams, I suddenly had big hopes for Brazil qualifying. It looks like I shouldn't keep my hopes up when it comes to Brazilian basketball. 

What do you mean with „against Germany, among all teams“?

are Italy and Germany going to add some big names to their squads for the OG ? Belinelli, Hacket, Datome, Galinari ? btw Schroder was the main cheerleader in Split. what about him ?

 

or maybe too early to ask , they just qualified tonight :d

For Schröder the insurance was too expansive, he also won’t be in Tokyo. Germany will probably be without Schröder, Theis, Kleber, Hartenstein, F. Wagner, Pleiß and Zipser.

      Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.

      Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.

      Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig

      2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.

      Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.

      Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
