greek team gave a great performance in this game, its bad that they couldnt keep it together in the last quarter :-( but spain as well showed their quality and will to defend their crown, we have to admit that. All in all, the loss to Turkey took as to a difficult path; the way the team played against spain, showed that we deserved a much better rank in this tournament.
this was the last game for one of the best guards of Europe the last 10 years and the best defender also. Dimitris Diamantidis retired after this turnament. This is more important than the defeat from spain(which is a good team but we will beat them one day, i hope).Now greece has 5 players retired and 2 injured, the hopes arent high for this year but the positive is there are many young players with potential. The young greek nt won 1 gold & 1 silver in euro U21 and 1 silver in world champ U21

@TeoK87gr The year we organized the European Championship, it was a shame, i admit we got helps from referees there. But even spanish press and tv news were critizising the referees because we don't like to win in an unfair way. I do admit we got helps that championship, same as most of host teams get helps when they organize tourneys.. which is bad. But on this last game i didnt really see any help. Anyway, sport should be to UNIFY, and not to SEPARATE, that's my main point. Good luck Greece.
The difference is that the greeks are tentative in talking shots and sometimes passes too much while the spanish guns it all the time and they have better shooters that is why they almost always beat the greeks.
@@ejcmaestro6520 Good point. Nevertheless, I greatly admire the Spanish team, and it is never a dishonor to lose to them. We are pretty much used to it at this point.
@thaN0s1993 i wrte it -> " but the positive is there are many young players with potential." they have potential and they will be great players but it will take 3-4 years. They cant jump right in and play like diamantidis, papaloukas and others.
@victor1984 i can admit spain is the best team in the world along with usa, but in my opinion this time they didnt deserve it...many fouls were not given to us, most of them giving free throws.but its ok no big deal...our biggest problem now is the retirement of diamantidis.he is our best player and he will be a great miss.he is the best defender in europe
All in alll we dindt show that Greece is one of the best! i am very sad that we lose in 16-final!i hoped a lot ! the akropolis tournament was so good! Sometimes we ddindt play so good but at this tournament the referees are bad very bad! and the best is always when the refereees are wrong the dont show a replay !they show us always some points but not the disscused things!

oh yeah i forgot you didnt won because of the refs on 2006 no but you won because you deserved the oscra golden cup of theatralical play in basketball well i dont have no words but you know someday you will phase us much stronger then we will see the team wasnt motivated this year and i dont think that this coach will last long in greece so we weill meet again
@andresin1985 who spoke about five times in a row?we are talking about yesterdays game...and yesterday you spain didnt deserve to proceed to the next stage...as always referees help spain...we all know the dirt in which we have to play
@1905GALATASARAYY dont wanna sound ethnicist cause i really dont give a fuck about greece but dont fool yourself. that guy diamantidis can destroy almost every defense in the world,can block shoots and can score 3pointers.few players can do that.and i'm not even a panathinaikos fan.
@andresin1985 five times in a row but referees were really gruesome for one more Spain's game. Greece was depressing though in a hostile atmosphere from the beginning of the tournament
@ONO285 We do play fair in basketball, do you really think we want helps from referees? Sigh, you are just mad because your team lost, and the way you take it, it's ridiculous, insulting. Learn to lose (again). The only thing i agree with you is about the bullfights, but if you were better informed, 90% of spanish people is against Bullfights, it has already been forbidden in some regions. And yeah, that must be stopped, it's a shame.
Δυστυχώς τα παιδιά βάλανε το "εγώ" τους πάνω από την ομάδα και χάλασε το κλίμα, εξού και η αποχώρηση του Δ.Δ. μετά την ήττα. Σε εκείνη τη διοργάνωση έκλεισε ένας μεγάλος κύκλος επιτυχιών για την Εθνική μας ομάδα.
@@KkKk-dk9ml Όχι!! Δεν σταματάς στα 30, σε καμία περίπτωση. Η αποχώρηση του Σπανούλη από τον Παναθηναϊκό αλλά και η αποχώρηση του Διαμαντίδη από την εθνική εκείνη τη χρονιά λέει πολλά. Το κλίμα είχε χαλάσει στα αποδυτήρια και φάνηκε στο τουρνουά του παγκοσμίου κυπέλλου του 2010.

@@KkKk-dk9ml Έλα ρε φίλε, σοβαρεψου. Ο Διαμαντίδης μια χαρά έπαιζε και στα 36 του. Μόνος του πήγε να γυρίσει την σειρά με την Λαμποράλ. Μην τον δικαιολογείται. Οπως και ο Παπαλουκάς, σταμάτησε στα 31, ο Σπανούλης στα 33, ο Σχορτσιανίτης στα 26-27. Δεν είναι μόνο ο Διαμαντίδης. Σίγουρα κάτι παιζόταν στα αποδυτήρια. Η αγωνιστική επίδοση της εθνικής αλλά και του Παναθηναϊκού το 2010 είχε πέσει πολύ.

@efamilos hm ok....i Google it! BUT i read same books the Armenia duds killed all so Turkish people ...but anyway its all history --- all countries have a bad story history peace for all
we only lost because we gave everything a few days before to america to just scrape a win against them and we were to tired for the finals, which was sad because i thought we would have had it easily, because if we could beat america we could beat any country, aw well at least we made it to the finals...

hahahaha 3 last seconds hahahaha Serbia won!!! And now spanish actors must ask from FIBA to give them some movie to learn how to acting better "fouls"!!! Btw you desirved to lose coz you wanted to some our players be disqualified coz stupid fight with greece hahahaha scared actors! Next is Turkey!
And we are trying to organize with little help from others, Greeks blame Germany,the EU, foreigners, immigrants etc. like basketball, you should blame yourselves. Greeks are lost, economy is in shambles, but they worry about Macedonia stealing their historical identity, this is what they argue in front of EU. btw the macedonians are right! but Culturally economically, scientifically what has greece contributed in 4000 years? no Picasso,no Dali, etc
