[...] of mostly lackluster play, Turkey displayed a complete game against Lithuania, which may have been slightly overrated in some quarters; Hedo Turkoglu naturally led the charge, but Team Turkey managed to outshoot the cold Lithuanians [...]

Greece: missing pieces NONE?!
Dimitris diamantidis, papaloukas and vasilopoulos are none?
That’s three starters in final4 teams, and two of those are considered 2 of the best pg europe has ever produced. And vasilopoulos is the most capable defensive stopper on the wing on maybe any european team. I guess these are missing pieces at a crucial spot on the floor…especially defensively d3 and vasilo are terrible losses for the greek team. Also these are clutch players who always come through in tight spots, which can’t be said for every other backcourt player in greece.
But hey, we’ll see…

Hey, appreciate all your work, but you should double check the greek section of the piece.

Greece will play without Papaloukas (Olympiakos) and Diamantides (Panathinaikos), the team’s two best ball handlers, wing defenders and players overall. Also, Vassilopoulos the defensive specialist from Olympiakos will be absent. Overall, this Greek team will rely heavily on bigs for the first time in its history.

Other than that, thanx for the great work
