Still better than Portugal, 57 points against Poland (83 - 57) 

This is a sport I know for sure it's almost impossible for our country to do something with it, as we're a nation of "short people" comparing to most of Europe

high five

 

no seriously it´s still a mystery for me why we are so shitty here...we are actually not so poor in team sports, we are definitely able to skate pretty well we know how to use sticks, we are also pretty decent in running and kicking the ball...but somehow we just don´t know how to throw a ball in the air or just throw things in the basket

Well we managed to beat (theoretically)  weaker Portugal. Still I am not sure about our style of play, especially after we lost the 2nd quarter 13-19.

Well, never say never, after all even in basketball the most important team is talent I am sure there finally will be a pretty good, skilled generation of players in Portugal After all, you actually have had a decent team in the past (9th place at Eurobasket 2007), plus a little offtop but in volley where in theory height is very important too you had 8th place at World Championships. I think that the most important thing is to have THAT generation which will "break the curse" plus a good coach to popularize the sport and then any country might be good in any sport for a decent amount of time

Over 50 interfaith and advocacy organisations have called on the International Basketball Federation to lift its ban on religious headgear that bars Muslim, Sikh and Jewish athletes from competing on a professional level and "defies human rights norms".

 

I'll encourage them to create the Silly Hat International Basketball Federation (SHIBA).

At least you didn't concede 101 points!

Only us and Kosovo did so...
