Is it too early for any news regarding the team? I am geared up for another great tournament!
You're not too early. Don't really have high expectations this year for WC. Smodis is out, the Lorbek brothers are out, don't even get me started on Vujacic. I am just waiting for Beno or Dragic to cancel, maybe they both will. We don't have any front court that can play decent ball. We don't have wings, but we never had those anyway. All we have left are guards. It's gonna be fun that's for sure.
Well I hope we all follow the team in a thread like last year. It is one of my favorite parts of summer.
2 words: SMALL BALL
Hope it works!
In other news... Dragič is confirmed to play. Probably our best player besides Udrih.
Smodis cannot help the team anymore. He is no absence. He can barely even play at all. Vujacic is also no absence. he is just a cancer in the team. Domen Lorbek is not very good either and does not matter really.You're not too early. Don't really have high expectations this year for WC.

The only loss there is Erazem Lorbek. But I have to say that is a huge loss for Slovenia. With him they could have challenged for a medal. Without him I think quarterfinal would be good accomplishment for them.
When one of you has the time, would you please post a roster for me? I am glad Dragic and Beno are playing.

LMAO... This looks pathetic.
Dragic, Beno and Nachbar should play good. I hope Lakovič will hit some trees and Bečirovič can play better than he did in the club. But what the is a guy like Čebular even on the list. This is just pathetic. Even Klobučar suck ass, and couldn't do in Olimpija where he should play like a star. PF/C position is also bad. LOL Brezec.
I gues we can make it out of the group stage, but after that we'll see.
And I'm still pissed at the fact that Memi Becirovic is our coach.
Oh and, YOU Emir Prelđič, you moron.
And even Lorbek. 22 min. per game made him tired. Then what could Beno say.
I understand Lorbek... he played loads of games and just got a first child and he probably wants to spend some time with him/her.
Hopefully Brezec and Slokar play well...
Don't worry about Beno. He will have knie/back/ankle problems somwhere between 15. and 20. august.
I doubt, that I will see him play against Croatia and USA ...
... LIVE
This is the team I'd take.
I'd take Vidmar instead of Zupan. I heard he's made some progress in last few months. And I'd take Klobučar instead of Murić. But only because I have no idea who Murić is.
Klobučar can play SF.

Oh yea, I have totally forgotten how it was the last time.
With Beno anything could happen.
Yeah those would be my second choices. They aren't my first because Zupan seems more versatile to me, can play the 4 or 5 while Vidmar is a 5 and I still have memories of him being incredibly clumsy. Muric is playing for the SLO national team up to 20 years old and I heard he's pretty good. I'm just not sure Klobucar has what it takes, though maybe a second try would be good for him.I'd take Vidmar instead of Zupan. I heard he's made some progress in last few months.

European U-20
I would take vidmar over Zupan too, you can always push Nachbar to 4 (which we're probably do a lot anyway). Or maybe drop Murič and go with 5 bigs.
But didn't Nachbar complain about playing the 4 while in Turkey?
Official news, Dragič has a green light to play in Turkey.

No Sasha = No Hope
j/k.
Friendly today against Macedonia at 20 CET on slo2
Also live on the internet: http://tvslo.si/predvajaj/v-zivo-tv-...ija-2/tv.slo2/
Cool, thanks. Did you see Beno's interview? To me he basically subtly said that if doesn't get heavy minutes/starts he'll get injured again.

Udrih!
I hope he sprains an ankle and gets a herpes...
He just fell down to Vujačič level in my eyes. GTFO
you Memi Bečirovič. You'd rather play Lakovič. You stupid idiot. Lakovič right now can just shoot trees and nothing else.
you MEMI.
Why the do we always get pathetic coaches, why!??!
Oh and even Beno for thinking he's a superstar.
After the Euro Cup everyone said that they will play on WC, and then this.
First pussy Lorbek who is tired cause he played 20 minutes per game in 40 matches, now Udrih, Prelđič who wants to play for Bosnia and Turkey and all the others.
Now it's all on Dragič. Just great. Now I'll have to watch players like Čebular and Klobučar...
Every year same .

Oh I see, so I guess he's progressing (somewhere hehe), he didn't even have to get injured this time.
