Porzingis will not play for Latvia in Belgrade tournament. Big news. Probably puts Czech Republic and Puertorico ahead of them to be our biggest rivals. Although we still don't know our team or the other teams, especially will Vesely and Satoransky play for the Czechs or Barea for PR.

 

Also, it's an old news but Gobert will not play for France in Manilla tournament. He wants to play in Rio if they qualfiy but we will see what happens.

Turkey is pretty bad outside of Turkey and Canada, well, let's wait to see what happens who shows up for them. Canada basicaly had their full team in South America qualifiers and still lost to Venezuela.

 

Can you give me links for Batum and Fournier? Tony will play for sure, he already announced that.

CSKA vs Lokomotiv Kuban = Itoudis vs Bartzokas, 2 greek coaches

[nenad 443]

CSKA easy win vs Kuban and Fener overtime win over Laboral. Great second match. Obradović vs his longtime student Itoudis in the final. It should be a great final, two best teams.
