How is it ever going to improve if you stop funding?  

 

I've heard our NOC boss talking like this: "These and these sports (swimming, equestrian, judo) disappointed in Rio, we might give them less money"...that only makes it worse

I mean only for mens, we really don´t need it. our mens basketball sucks as heck...it´s  not that we are not competitive in this sport...we actually never was. since our independance we barely win some matches. The second thing is that because our stupid laws about the sport state funding, which say that the amount of funds of the state for each sport is literally determined by the popularity of the sport in the country. and since mens team doesn´t interest anyone but really anyone, really it´s probably the less popular mens team in the country. most suffer of it the womens 

 

No seriously if you ask me it´s about a long while that I´m persuated that is Better to dissolve the whole mens section (at least for some years and TRY to keep working only with juniors) and move the whole focus and support to womens which deserve it much more.

That sounds a lot like our men's basketball a while back, the decision to stop the national team was even already made..until some magic happened and all of a sudden some good stuff came out  

 

Wanna borrow some magic?

Looks like Doncic is going to pay for Spain

 

are they going to kick Mirotic or what?

 

this becomes funny when Spain need to naturalize players

Spain What a joke. First Mirotic, now Doncic.

Serbia applied for women's EC 2019 and men's world championship 2023.  Well, Im not sure that we have chance for WC. For EC chance is not bad at all.
