Honestly... honestly I'm really sad! because we could win two matches playing normal against Rep. Cec. and Rossiya, but I think that our enthusiasm could raise and we could finish this round better, but...

...but we could even win! Lost by 3 the first match and by 8 this one, but we were up by 2 on 98 (R) 100 (C) thanks to Kaikas 2 minutes left! 106-103 Rossiya... Ketikidis 1/3 from charity line... 108-104 Rossiya... Pararas 0/3 from charity line... 24/44 during the match (55%) is awful... well... we know that we could compete until the end of the match in Europe and all over the world.

Against Italy and Portugal is difficult to win, but we will play for try a victory, for sure!

I'm really sorry for the injury occured to Florakis (he was playing so good! 18points and 6rebs on 16'), but Ritsos try to do a great work as well.

MVP: Y. Kaikas -> 13points (5/13), 20 rebounds and the basket of our last advantage in the match, then he will not shot anymore...

We have a great national team at the moment, but why Atmatzidis plays with junior team?

Its a deal between the 2 NT managers that all the players under 21 will play for U21.

That was a clear loss today, we cannot expect to win them all...

Keep the good work going!

It was an amazing match! We (Russia) didn't expect you to resist so hard, so it was very nervous. Your team is improving every day and I believe you will be able to win much more than in recent seasons and strong teams will soon feel all work you have done with matches against Cyprus NT.
Good job, Steve Makis!

We are the ones who wanna play, always wanna go but we never wanna stay

Thanks maleshka, I think that I set up a good strategy and this maintain us on the game until last minute game.

We have a good team now and Atmatzidis and Pikoulas will allow better results (I hope!)
