Kings at Eurobasket 2015

After the game he said the team is feeling really tired. 4 games in 5 nights, and they are giving everything they've got in every game. I think it was just a matter of tired legs, and that can really be a problem for a shooter.

After all, Beli hit the shot who gave us the win, showing he's got attributes even in a bad night for him.

Sunday's game is at 7:30 am PST (for anyone in or around Sac). That's going to be a fun one! Going to suck for whichever team gets knocked out - knocked out of the tournament by your own teammate, lol. Beli vs Casspi!

Round of 16

Kosta Koufos - 13 pts, 9 reb in WIN (75-54 vs. Belgium)

Greece faces the winner of the Spain/Poland matchup in the Quarterfinals. This likely means we can see Koufos take on the Gasol brothers (or, if Poland upset Spain, he'll face Gortat).

---

Casspi/Belinelli face off against each other tomorrow, as stated previously.

Gasol brother, only Pau came this time and Ibaka is also not there... Greece is a better team imo in this tournament (KK was great in the first half today).

Based on talent I would say France is the best team followed by Greece than probably Serbia (who play the best as a team) the Spain team so far has been fairly unimpressive.

Omri's final stat line is not fair, he played well. He just didn't find the basket.
Belinelli had a marginal role because he's still injured, but he did his job perfectly especially in the first half.
Just to report, the match ended at the end of the third quarter. Last one was garbage time.

Omri had a disappointing game when they could least afford it (8pts 3-9FG), not that it would really matter in a 30pt blowout.

Bels was solid as Italy's #2 guy (14pts 5-10FG in 23min).

Two Kings are competing in the Quarterfinals of EC 2015, not bad! :D

This means AT LEAST one Kings will get a shot at the Olympics for next year (1-2 n Europe get automatic spot, 3-7 go through the Olympic Qualifying Tournament).

No, Italy is playing Lithuania, not Greece. Greece is facing Spain.
His comment is still correct, since 7 teams get a chance for the Olympics and 2 teams are featuring Kings players in the top 8- atleast 1 of them will be there (there being either getting a ticket to the Olympics or the Olympic Qualifying Tournament).

Was bound to occur Casspi has to be exhausted playing all out and playing literally everyday in high intensity games, Israels lack of depth has really hurt them they did well to get to where they were. Italy is a sleeping giant because they can get hot like no one else but at the same time there defense and ball movement in a number of games has been beyond awful.

He definitely didn't look like his usual self. Quite a bit less energetic than normal.
