It will be interesting...

a bunch of relatively unknown US players going up against the best of Greece.

[zizozain]

players to watch

Josh Jackson - Jalen Brunson - Harry Giles

I agree. From what little I have seen of Giles, he looks like possible NBA material. And he is listed as a PF, but I suspect that with a team that has a center with virtually no skills in Welsh, that he will get some time at the center slot.

Then we can see just how good Papagiannis is...albeit, I am not claiming that Giles will ever be a star in the NBA.

[zizozain]

Josh Jackson killed Greece last year in U17

[zizozain]

not a good start from both teams

[PAOK]

papagiannis already with 6pts

[LAZERUSS]

papagiannis with 8pts/4rebs/1stl/1blk

Looks like Giles is easily outplaying him.

[chips93]

so these american kids, are they going into college next semester or are they still in high school?

the best ones are heading into their senior years (giles, tatum, jackson)

some are heading to college (trier, brunson, swanigan)

the rest are about to become sophomores.

[PAOK]

49-46 with 3 minutes to go in the 3rd

Brunson with 18pts

Charalampopoulos with 19pts and 3 consecutive 3pts

[zizozain]

[chips93]

fun game to watch, much better than the summer league

[r0drig0lac]

Greece starting a reaction

[r0drig0lac]

3pt going in sequence, recalling 2006

[LAZERUSS]

3pt going in sequence, recalling 2006

Unfortunately...the FIBA 3pt line is shorter than the NBA 3pt line.

Put those guys in the NBA...and their percentage likely falls off the cliff.

[zizozain]

Childes is a chucker :facepalm

[PAOK]

onuaku with the rick barry FTs :lol :lol

[LAZERUSS]

How is "the #1 draft pick in the 16 NBA draft" doing so far?

[zizozain]

onuaku with the rick barry FTs :lol :lol

lol nothing but net.

why wouldn't bad ft shooters try this

[PAOK]

How is "the #1 draft pick in the 16 NBA draft" doing so far?

live stats are not available, but i think he has something like 10/6/2

[zizozain]

How is "the #1 draft pick in the 16 NBA draft" doing so far?
lol he has no future

he's really that bad

[LAZERUSS]

live stats are not available, but i think he has something like 10/6/2

So much for the 1st pick in the '16 NBA draft. Hell, if the Knicks don't take him, he might go undrafted.

Of course, he might go on to be the Euroleague MVP, though. Which, of course, is basically meaningless.

[PAOK]

big body, nice touch but he has some mobility issues

[zizozain]

what a block by jackson

6pt game 2 minutes left

[PAOK]

brunson just lost one contact lense, still made both FTs

[chips93]

its a shame bender isnt playing, we would have gotten a chance to see him play the top usa prospects if he was, presuming usa hold onto their lead here.

[PAOK]

this Giles guy kinda sucks.. is he supposed to be NBA material?

[zizozain]

Jalen Brunson is the best player in this game

4 pt play for greece

[PAOK]

and-1 for tatum, game over

[zizozain]

Papagiannis benched most of the 4th

it's over 81-73

Stats?

[Euroleague]

Just like I said, if Charalampopoulos was healthy, Greece would have won the game.

Oh, and Jeff needs to ban gabepizza's alt account "lazeruss" for 3 days.

[Euroleague]

It will be interesting...

a bunch of relatively unknown US players going up against the best of Greece.

Players projected to go in the lottery/NCAA stars = "relatively unknown"

And Greece is missing 3 of its 5 best players and both of its starting guards, with its 2nd best player playing with a bad injury = "the best of Greece"

Jeff, ban gabepizza (lazeruss) for 3 days. He has EARNED it.

[zizozain]

if Charalampopoulos would have been healthy, Greece would have won the game.

:roll: :roll:

btw did Papagiannis play?:roll:

A team of US scrubs whips the Greeks best. Just another example of the huge drop off in talent between the US and the rest of the world.

[Euroleague]

this Giles guy kinda sucks.. is he supposed to be NBA material?

He's supposed to be a one and done NCAA star and NBA lottery pick.

While according to this forum, Papagiannis will not even be drafted at all, and could never even play in the NBA.

Of course, Papagiannis completely dominated him on both ends of the court the entire time they were both in the game..........

It is clear who this "lazeruss" guy is. An alt account of gabepizza, the RACIST asshole that got banned from the forum for endless racist attacks against white and European players.

[LAZERUSS]

:roll: :roll:

btw did Papagiannis play?:roll:

The "#1 pick in the '16 NBA draft" to possibly losing any hope of being a bench-warmer on some middle-range US colleges.

[Euroleague]

:roll: :roll:

btw did Papagiannis play?:roll:

Did Giles play? He was getting his ass kicked the whole time him and Papagiannis were both in the game. So was Onauku. Destroyed would be more like it in case of Onuaku.

[Jon_Koncak]

Kinda sad for Greece that their best player was an american

[Euroleague]

You did not even watch the game.

I am contacting Jeff directly about gabepizza being back with an alt account and once again making racist posts.

[LAZERUSS]

Please provide us all here with their full stat-lines.

Really sad for you that you turned out to be just another racist piece of shit. As I have read all your posts at interbasket and you are nothing above a redneck son of a bitch KKK.

I bet you are a card carrying Golden Dawn member.

Anyway, I am out of the thread, and will be contacting Jeff directly about gabepizza the banned racist returning under an alt account and once again flaming and baiting with racist posts.

[LAZERUSS]

I didn't bother. I had the knowledgeable posters here provide me with all I needed to know.

And once again...gabepizza?

As for my "racist" posts...what, for telling the TRUTH. That the vast majority of Euros are pure trash? And that US rejects go to Euroleague and DOMINATE?

As for "racist" remarks...

here is my all-time Top-10, which I have posted MANY times...

1. Wilt
2. MJ
3. Magic
4. Kareem
5. Russell
6. Shaq
7. Duncan
8. Kobe
9. Lebron
10. Bird

BTW, I am WHITE.

[Jon_Koncak]

Relax i hate GD..in fact if you read interbasket you'll see how much i was in favor of Antetokounmpo when real racists were against him playing for Greece.But Dorsey is American.I wish there would be 5 Antetokounpos in greek NT..they are 100% greeks,born,raised,learned the game in Greece.Dorsey isnt,he was cut from USA U18 last year and got his passport one week ago.

Sorry Jon, but you are a racist piece of shit. Your posts at interbasket are disgusting. I used to think you were a solid and nice guy. Not anymore. You are not only a racist piece of shit, but you are also a hypocrite, which is even worse.

The fact that you could not notice that at interbasket (a site where only the worst assholes around post) the ONLY people that agreed with what you said were from Canada and USA (two incredibly xenophobic, nationalist, bigoted, and racist nations) should have told you something. No one from anywhere else agreed and hardly even acknowledged you at all.

But yeah, American and Canadian drooling retards sure did. That's great, to lump yourself in with the slime of humanity like that.

Hold on are you saying the Greek parliament keep bending over by giving Dorsey a passport.:oldlol:

Desperate times in Greece.:oldlol:

Though him and Giannis will be the future of that team:bowdown:

Papa G is nothing special, he's a lumbering big man who plod his way with some skills and good touch.:oldlol:

Give props to Dorsey:applause:

He decommits to his coach after he failed to make the USA roster

Then came up big with 23 points and keeping the Greece close.:bowdown:
