Hedo bricking 3s didn't help at all. Just be glad TP couldn't hit a 3 either or the end wouldn't have been close at all
TURKEY-FRANCE : FIirst game of the 2nd round
- Thread starter sepanol
- Start date
If we didnt get 6 pts in at the last min of 3rd quarter, the difference wouldnt go up so high neither. You cant say if in basketball, the game is determined by too little details, we could have hit a 3 in the last min if we didnt do that stupid mistake and win in ot while we didnt play so well. Anyway France deserved it but i dont think they are gonna be champions, they were too clueless last few mins, the game was almost slipping out of their hands. I just think, Turkey should do whatever it takes and try to get 2 wins because we have a group of good players, only missing thing is a legit pg.
Emir can play in nba right now? What do you think
I have concerns about his ability to defend NBA wings and he sure as hell can't play the 4. But he's a really skilled player with a great feel for the game. I could see him having a nice career in the NBA or having a great one in Europe.
no he is not a 4, he is a SF but can play 2 and sometimes even 1. Yeah he needs to bulk up, but he is very young and doesnt hesitate to take responsibility

Quite unrealistic for LT to lose 3 games at home. I think your better chance is to beat Serbia and hope they will lose their games vs Spain and LT.
That's kind of the silly thing, though. That's still a scoring rate better than most of the players on Turkey. Maybe I have my homer goggles on too tight, but Kanter just makes plays and his presence is felt. His D is second-best on the team behind Asik and he plays it without making stupid mistakes most of the time.
How a team's most productive, efficient, and consistent scorer; best rebounder; and second-best defender can't get on the court is beyond me.
Serbia always makes trouble for us. I dont think we can beat Serbia, from now on, i think our only chance is lithuania to lose 3 and we beat germany, otherwise it doesnt seem to be a way out. Serbia will be too concentrated to take the revenge of last year semi final game in world champ. It will be the most intense game in this tournament
He is too young, so he prefers Ersan over him, in Europe veterans are always one step ahead. Also Omer is too good defender as a C to be substituted by Kanter. And he never tries Ersan as 3, so he cant get many mins. Ersan sucked too bad today but still he got 10 points. Coach cant be sure if Kanter will put the same performance while he was away from basket 2 years. But i believe Enes deserves more than 10 mins at least because he proved that he is a real baller and i think he will get many guys fouled out in nba. He forces them to make contact, he needs more practise to perfect his plays that he does good, like post game and footwork.
