Slovenia is our real problem, because without winning against them, playing against Lithuania is not real :p

You will probably play against LTU in semifinals

Very good draw for Germany. They should field the strongest team in their tournament (especially with Wagner, Bonga and Hartenstein all being one year older), but if they underperform like they did this year, then every other team can beat them. Serbia should be safe (although Italy also has a pretty good team), in tournament B it could be close between Lithuania and Slovenia (but only if Doncic will play). Tournament D is absolutely brutal, Greece and Canada (if they play with their best team) would have been favorites in all other tournaments except for tournament A and Turkey also has a decent team (at least on paper). In my opinion Canada clearly has the 2nd best guard rotation in the world (only behind the US), but their big man situation looks pretty dire, maybe Greece (Giannis) can hurt them there, but Giannis hasn't been spectacular at FIBA level and Milwaukee is very likely to go far in the postseason, so if Canada will play with at least 2 or 3 of their top guards (Alexander-Walker, Murray, RJ, Gilgeous-Alexander, Lyles, Wiggins) they should win their tournament. Only Murray should go far in the postseason, so all the other guys probably will have no excuse to not participate. I would say tournament C is by far the most unpredictable, at least 4 teams could win that tournament.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Yes that's the result of the "out of the court" rivalry panathinaikos - olympiakos. Olympiakos is complaining that federation is favorable to panathinaikos regarding the referres in the matches between them. Last year Olympiakos withdraw team from 2 matches against panathinaikos and according to rules relegated to 2nd basketball division of Greece. 

Anyway, from the 3 players above only Printezis would be a loss

So, New Zealand pulls out of Belgrade OQT citing financial reasons and basicaly admitting they don't have a chance to qualify. What happens now with this spot, remains unocupied or someone gets a chance to qualify?

The spot has already been given to the Philippines as the next best Asian/ Oceanian team from the FIBA Rankings.

 

New Zealand also withdrew from the 3x3 qualifying tournament, but that spot has yet to be reallocated (FIBA is waiting for confirmation from the invited NOC)

    • looks like the agreement is the international federations are in fact hosting the event, not the AG organizers, so everything is up to them to make it happen.   Teqball is now confirmed to have 5 events (singles and doubles) does it mean easy 5 gold medals for Thailand ?   Padel is not 100% confirmed yet. I assume there are still talks ongoing between the IF and the Japanese organizers.
    • I feel like this year's Eurovision is more wide open than ever 😂   There isn't a clear favorite, and that makes everything more exciting. Finland is looking strong, sure, but Ukraine always knows how to surprise people and connect with them. I was checking out the odds a bit, and I was struck by how quickly they're rising.   By the way, I found a site that compares the odds pretty clearly: https://casasdeapuestaseurovision.com/   It’s nothing special, but it gives you an idea of how things are shaping up before the semifinals. Although we all know how this goes… at Eurovision, everything can change in a matter of minutes  
    • Learned that Tigst Assefa  in London also lowered the women-only Women's Marathon time.  (I learned they have a women-only record, and a mixed record, to avoid pacemakers...also nevermind that she was running along with other men in the men's marathon, which had started first.)
    • Anyway, a piece of history has been written today as  for the first time ever topped a preliminary round group at the U18s.  Was about time as well though      Quarterfinals schedule is also on - The Relegation direct match GER vs NOR is schedulled also on Thursday morning at 10 AM in Trenčín

    • Kids playing huraah-hockey  zero defensive ambitions and coaches facepalming the whole 2nd period.   This was pure entertainment for sure haha
    • I really don't like U18Worlds schedule....  Finland's QF game against CZE is at 1pm our time lol PS. Hey @hckošice, That Finland - Slovakia game was PRETTY CRAZY?
