Can Serbia win Eurobasket?


A Serbian win against Czech Republic propelled them to the semifinals of the 2015 Eurobasket. Even when players who have NBA experience have a hard time facing the Serbs, who went out with passion and fiery all the time. What I saw through their games is simply a testament of their continued hardwork on the court.

Miloš Teodosić is the clear leader of this team. Setting up plays for teammates and has the range anywhere on the court, it's also the task of the likes of Miroslav Raduljica, Nemanja Nedović, Nemanja Bjelica, Bogdan Bogdanović, veteran Zoran Erceg and the rest, with team effort and superb unselfishness.

The last time they won the Eurobasket Gold is way back 14 years ago, who were having Dejan Bodiroga, Peđa Stojaković and others coached by legendary coach Svetislav Pešić.

It now depends on Miloš's efforts to avoid another Silver medal, since his playing career he never won the gold medal or in professional leagues, championships(only has VTB League championships though.)

But if this unit can make it all the way to the gold with Sale Nacionale Aleksandar "Saša" Đorđević coaching with passion and fiery as well without prioritizing what his predecessors did(Dušan Ivković notably), they have a better chance to win it all.
