The (World Championship) Qualifications are irregular. This is one huge bullshit, but we’re all in the same shit, so we have to accept it. There’s nothing we can change. -Klemen Prepelič

Dončić takes Slovenia to the Semis
2017-09-12
Slovenia beat Latvia 103:97 in a tense match closed by 18 year-old Luka Dončić. Tonight’s match was a true treat for basketball fans, with a total of 200 points scored.
The prodigy scored 27 points, more than any of his team mates.
Despite a slow start, Latvia went full on in the second and third quarter, taking the lead. Their experience, both individual and group seemed like enough insurance for a ticket to the semis.
Nevertheless, Slovenia wasn’t about to simply pass off the opportunity to get a step closer to a medal. Thanks to a great 3pt performance and a cool head in the final two minutes, they are meeting Spain.
The aggressive approach on both sides made it nearly impossible to simply pick a favorite. Undoubtedly one of the best Eurobasket matches so far.
Eurobasket: eight-finals
2015-09-10
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.
Eurobasket – rezultati / The Eurobasket results
2015-09-06
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.

Jaka Blažič – za i protiv
2015-08-31
Borbeni, 196 cm visoki bek Crvene zvezde Jaka Blažič, pod znakom je pitanja za novu sezonu u crveno-belom dresu. Naime, padovi u formi tokom većeg dela prethodne sezone, naveli su brojne navijače da ga još početkom godine “otpišu”. Ipak, ne mogu se zaboraviti njegova borbenost i tvrdoglavost na terenu, kao ni brojna efikasna izdanja. Pamte se derbiji, te Budiveljnik, Cibona, Panatinaikos, Laboral Kuća… Brze kretnje, sjajni prodori i zakucavanja koja izazivaju delirijum hiljada navijača.
Dve godine, sve dobro i loše, svode se na pitanje da li bi Slovenac trebalo da ostane u Crvenoj zvezdi.
SRB – SLO (95-88)
2015-08-29
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.
SRB – SLO (79-70)
2015-08-27
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.
