i dont like basketball :(

Not good :( In Lithuania basketball is our religion :D

:D :D i know

do i understood you correct? You write that Latvia will be in next group as 6th team but Lithuania as 1st. Or is it your prediction that both of our National teams will qualify to the next group?

It dosent mater 1 or 6, i puted these teams by Fiba reiting ;)

It will be really good, if Latvia will be in next round...I think that Latvia has good team this time, but if we look back on previous EC, than there are no reason for celebration now.

Latvija just need to beat Portugal and they will be in next round :) So they should be there ;)

About Latvijas chances i can say something :) If they win today against Crotia and later against Portugal they would be in second place in B group and would have 2 victorys in second round, in next round they would have to beat Serbija or Russia and it would be big chance that whit 3 victories Latvija would go to 1/4 finals :)

Ju hUUU!!

L-A-T-V-I-J-A...L-A-T-V-I-J-A !!!

By the way a thread name you wrote correct. Well, almost, instead "Eiropa" you should write "Eiropas". Although you can freely write in english here :)

Well at least i was close ^^ Todays Latvijas game will start at 20:00h, our baltic time :) I hope that yours Tv3 or other chanel will show this match, shoud be very good and inportant game. I wish that Latvija beat Spain, they didnt lost 23 games in a row, over 2 years so it would be about time to take them down, Juan Carlos Navarro wont play against you becouse of small leg injury, and Garbajosa is in bad shape he joined team just yesterday if Latvijans will play calm and dont rush things, and will be good day for 3 pointers maybe they will have chance :)

Latvija - Crotia 36-36 at half time, intresting game :p

Yes, interesting, but I am pesimist this time

Germany won just after overtime agains Czech ^^ We could say Nowitzki won against Czech, he scored 35pt and made 11rebounds. Latvija now in front by 6 points at end of 3rd quarter. Latvija 3pt shooted 7 out of 10 =)
