EuroBasket 2011 Gamethread GER-TUR

"Do or Die, Pt. 1."

In order to reach the Quarterfinal, Germany has to win today against Turkey AND Sunday vs the Host Country. In Essence, Dirk is playing for his career on the National Team. So it's 'No time to lose'.

Game starts 10:00 AM CT, boxscore liveticker at fibaeurope.com, streams per usual.

As luck would have it, i'll be busy during the game. Don't let me return to a flood of "These german guards make me appreciate JJ", "I never knew an entry pass could be that difficult", "Play Dirk 40 Minutes!", "Kaman sucks" and last but not least "Lol Hedo" Comments. Have Fun.

23:26 at halftime, hamann trashing his mates in the interview.
Dirk 7 shots, 6 points, Kaman 10 shots, 9 points
Ger shooting 34.5%, 1 FT, Turkey 39.3% 9 FTs

This will end well.

yeaaa good win

let’s hope lithuania wins against france,and turkey beats serbia.germany has the advantage that they will know the other results before playing lithuania

france has been escaping losing right at the ned of every game

suck it parker

by dimitrious on Sep 9, 2011 12:03 PM CDT up reply actions

yup...if lithuania wins they will be both qualified

and perhaps lith will give some good minutes or rest to their key players against germany

but the good news is they’re beatable gonna be a crazy game on sunday

by dimitrious on Sep 9, 2011 2:45 PM CDT up reply actions

it's to bad if france lost they would've had to play spain

and probably would’ve been eliminated

by dimitrious on Sep 9, 2011 2:47 PM CDT up reply actions

its all good actually

if turkey beats serbia, lithuania is qualified,and germany will need just a minimal win against them to advance.That’s because both Lithuania and Germany have won aganst Turkey.If Serbia wins it will come down to points differential between Serbia,Germany and Lithuania.
Lithuania-Serbia 100-90
Serbia-Germany 75-64
So in this case Germany will have not just to win against Lithuania,but needs a win with certain margin of points.
Go Turkey! :)
