Spain beat Lithuania and Poland now is win

Spain will play the pass to the quarterfinals of Eurobasket 2009 against the host, Poland, a group that in principle should not be too difficult to win, but the pressure in the stands, and in arbitration, as well as the ghosts that hover this year's selection, they can spend bill.

With the team that had the selection for the European Championship is very strange that he has reached this situation, especially after leading since 2006 not to get off a final international tournament. But the way things are, and Spain was only worth the victory, before a Poland that win, will be among the eight best in Europe.

Our other three rivals have already qualified, as Turkey, Slovenia and Serbia. There is only room for one, and should be for Gasol and company. Yesterday before Lithuania became a bit of what the choice should never have ceased to be, but it was a crouching rival, which has its defeats games (minus one) and he was depressed. Tomorrow, Poland will be killed, with his public favor and in the hope of reaching the quarter-finals.

In the other group, if Russia beat Macedonia, which presumably will, the will of Germany classified - Croatia, accompanying Russian, Greece and France, which is the sensation of this tournament with Turkey.

One thing is clear: we should not reach another tournament with José Luis Sáez as president of the FEB. Many people are unhappy with him after what happened to Pepu and Aito. And nobody swallows Sergio Scariolo, who leaves office in October. They should get new times for the Spanish Federation of Basketball.
