Today marked the end of the last group stage competition day. Spain has barely won over Germany,  in a match where the host had a chance to get to extra time, using free throws. Sadly for the home fans, Dennis Schröder missed the third throw, allowing Spain to win by a point (77-76). In the B group, Serbia took the first spot, by a fifth win on the Championship, over Italy.

Another proof of superiority for the Serbian National team. The players of Aleksandar Đorđević have proven themselves against a potentially complicated rival, with a victory of 91-72.  A match in which, Serbia lead by +22 points, by the end of the second quarter.

Reprezentacija Srbije dostiže svoju punu formu. U još jednom najavljenom teškom duelu, došli su do pobede sa 19 poena razlike. Izabranici Aleksandra Đorđevića, dokazali su superiornost u gotovo svim aspektima igre, a budnost plejmejkera i kapitena reprezentacije Miloša Teodosića, dokazala se presudnom razlikom, u četvrtoj uzastopnoj pobedi košarkaša na Evropskom šampionatu. Najkorisniji je Raduljica, sa 20 poena,a standardno odlični Marković, Bjelica, Bogdanović. Prava umetnost na delu.

Nakon završena prva dva takmičarska dana na Eurobasketu, sledi kratak osvrt na stanje po grupama. Uz napomenu da grupe B i  C sutra imaju dan za odmor.  Rusija je upisala i prvi poraz na šampionatu. Srbija je pobedila Nemačku, a Španija  dokazala superiornost nad selekcijom Turske, i to najubedljivijom pobedom na dosadašnjem toku šampionata. Grčka je porazila Hrvatsku, u veoma napetom meču, dok je Slovenija savladala selekciju Gruzije. Litvanija je lako savladala Letoniju, nakon jučerašnje veoma neizvesne utakmice, na kojoj je odlučio samo jedan poen.

After Serbia’s fantastic win over Spain (80-70), here are some of the best moves we had the chance to see, this afternoon. Truly worth watching again. All of this is part of a Eurobasket special, that will showcase the best and most interesting elements that European basketball has to offer, during this championship.

Nakon fantastične pobede Srbije nad selekcijom Španije, sledi podsećanje na neke od najlepših poteza utakmice, koje svakako vredi ponovo pogledati.

Después de una increíble victoria de Serbia contra España, aquí están los mejores momentos del partido.

The Serbian basketball National team has managed to establish dominance and win their first game of this year’s Eurobasket

Both teams entered the match by testing the field. The players of Sergio Scariolo began with caution, missing points that they normally would have no problems scoring. A series of Serbia’s mistakes has pushed them into a fast rythm, and a solid scoring streak.

Serbia ends their Eurobasket preparations on a high. With another win against Slovenia, this time by 95-88, after overtime, and various intervals in which the victory could have gone both ways.

Banjaluka’s  Borik hall was over capacity, as the crowd was ecstatic to finally be able to see the Serbian National Team live. Almost five thousand spectators sang the National anthem, as one.

An interesting game for Serbia, against Slovenia, as part of the Eurobasket preparations, and an excellent night for Nemanja Bjelica. The Serbian MVP has scored 19 points, with 4 rebounds and an almost perfect score at free throws and 2 and 3 pointers. Another proof that the forward will undoubtedly be on the final roster. 

Alen Omić, Jaka Klobučar and BC Red Star’s Jaka Blažič were noticed, on the host’s side.
