Damn, never seen a guy so arrogant as you. That's not confidence ozziem, that's arrogance.
All in all, I think Spain is going to win. They are getting better and better with each game, even if they have a bum for a coach.
Don't underestimate the power of the greek lobby. We can make any team lose in this match. Just tell us who do u guys prefer.

Confırmed...
About the match, toughest opponent for Turkey for sure...
I am very optımıstıc about the chances of Turkey to beat Spaın... Gasol doesnt scare me at all cos we have a better guy ın the paınt whose name ıs Omer Asık. Absolutely an NBA calıber gıant... Omer and Sınan can lock Navarro and Fernandez at anytıme. Rubıo doesnt ımpress me so much. We r very lucky that Calderon ısnt here. I hope Ersan wıll be the key factor. I guess he wıll have a great game. He ıs too quıck for Reyes and a better fıghter as well. I guess a close game but ımo our confıdence ıs hıgher than Spaın for now. And they wanna crown the success tıll now by beatıng Spaın
1st in EUROLEAGUE IBN PREDICTION GAME 2009-2010
Turkey seems very solid so far. I vote for them.
U convinced me, I'll vote for Turkey...Because you sımply do not search....

GERA ELLADARA MOU!!!!!
ozziem I will cheer for Turkey in this game, just to bring your theory, that Greeks and turks can never support each other, down
Oh, and because I dislike Spaniard internationals (not fans here ).

Ozziem, you are really getting annoying. At least try to use "i" not "we" while you are talking about your own bullshits.
Anyway, Turkish NT is exceeding the expectations so far and with the contribution of Omer Asik it is really getting inspiring. But we'll meet better teams at the next stage, considering that Lithuania wasn't performing as expected. Hard to predict, it will be a tough game...
To be fair, our group was easy as hell(or should I say heaven?).
Turkey always had tough times against top-tier European teams like Spain or Greece.
Still, the way Hedo and Ender played thus far really gives me confidence. If we win the battle of the bigs, we may very well win this game.
Spain has to be the favorites, though. I mean Gasol has been a key ingredient for the NBA champs, Navarro still plays at a high level, and last time I checked, they still have a little kid called Rubio playing for them, right?
I think Spain will take this one. Simply because I think they are still the best team of the tournament.
Both Spanish and Turkish players know each other from the Euroleague and I think that Spain, knowing they usually match up well against Turkey, will take the game.
Not completely sure though, Turkey have impressed me so far. It's a game to watch and I think that Turkey would love the underdog position on this one.

May be you are jelaus of our team
Because you sımply do not search....
No, I have searched , arrogant countryman, now I can't see my predictions.
Thanks for supporting us and understand my theory
wHEN I use "we" , it means Turkish national team. It doesn't mean I and Marko Milic, ok no prroblem now
And I forget sending technical comment about this game. I can't imagine know. The moral is very important for our team. May be after 2 days, some of our player became ill and team atmosphere may break down.
In normal conditions, Spain squad is a bit better than us. But now we are team. Spain can't show his potential because of not being a team. If they keep like this, We win. But this match isn't in our hand so I can't say clearly we win. We win if Spain play like this.
If we look at the physiologic area, we are more advantage. We don't afraid of Spain. If the difference is close, we will win. I think we are better in mentality.
As a result, I think we will win by +2 or +5 points. After this matches, we are starting to show first bare king

Spain will probably win this one, they can't keep on playing bad for ever.
Wow, it's strange to see Spain losing in the poll by such margin.
You suck
Sadly, I think Turkey will win this game.
Spain has been playing far from their real level, with this stupid coach we are playing awful
Plus, we have very bad players like Garbajosa, Mumbru, Cabezas, Raul
Insted of them We should have brought Saul Blanco , Carlos Suarez, Sergi Vidal, Ribas, Sada, who are younger, fresh, and much better
Turkey is going to win this one. Spain is showing inconsistence. No defense. Bad free shots. And Turkey is playing really good.
SCARIOLO GO HOME!!!
After the game against Slovenia, Spain showed a better performance, but they still have some lapsus like the one that let Slovenians to neutralize a -13 or equalize the game in the end.
One of the changes comes from the bench, Scariolo didn't rotate bench so much as before and let the players on fire to stay in the court, that made them feel more comfortable.
I must adit that i didn't watch any of the Turkish NT games, didn't have enough time, though i don't see their 3 victories so strange, but nobody expected Lithuanian performance... just like Spain.
Before the game i would say it's 50:50, but the Turkish have more choices if they neutralize Spanish PG's, sometimes they have problems handling the ball under pressure in this championship. López is good and reliable but it's not so creative as before; Cabezas is much better than he seems until now but he's quite insecure, and finally Rubio lacks some patience sometimes, he's not 26 or 27 so tends to try the beautiful movement before the practical one.
If Scariolo had chosen Ribas and Sada before López and Cabezas, now we would be complaining about it for sure. Mumbrú is not ok, but Suárez is not ready to join NT yet. We always remember other players when things are going badly.
Who?
