Nurk is playing in Eurobasket this year (1 Viewer)

[Fairly-Hard]

Fairly annoyed by your hate tbh.

Let him prove me wrong. I'm all for it!

Nurk may be out of Eurobasket but another Blazers LEGEND remains...

Greece has a couple more.

The GOAT

Thought about it some more and realized all of those players are still playing. Maybe that is why Nurk isn’t on there.

Either way, the sample size is so small the list is kind of useless. I mean as much as I am pulling for Tyler Dorsey to catch on with an NBA team, I have my doubts. Is he really better than Sabonis?

Looking at this bracket and the way teams have been playing, I won’t be surprised to see a showdown between the NBA’s most recent MVPs with Greece and Giannis playing Serbia and Jokic

Greece would move on to play Germany in the quarters, and then the winner of Finland/Spain/Lithuania in the Semis (predicting Finland to win and advance to quarters)

Serbia would face Slovenia in the semis

PK of Espoo Honka Playboys fame! “The Finnagler”

They are incredibly valuable players...

(Check out Miro Little for Finland - he's going to be a high lottery pick pretty soon.)

Rudy went insane in the 2nd half. Vintage Rudy Fernandez having a great Vintage Rudy Fernandez game.

Kind of hilarious that three of the top five players in the NBA all failed to make the semifinals, and it's the old guard (France, Spain), the hosts, and... Poland?

Spain v France for the Eurobasket championship on Sunday.

What makes Spain good? They don't have NBA stars

They play the beautiful game the way its supposed to be played.

Must be something in the Polska Kielbasa

And of course, France, with the two legit NBA starters, loses badly to a team whose stars are the journeyman Hernangomez brothers...

This Eurobasket really has shown the value of teamwork and program legacy.

(Having said that, I can definitely see "Spaniard" Lorenzo Brown get another shot at the NBA.)

Name a more iconic duo than Vincent Collet and Losing in the finals

Can't expect any less than that from Bo Cruz.
