In the last round of the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 European Qualifiers, Serbia won 97 – 76 (+21) against Israel in a packed Pionir (also known as Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall). Aleksandar Đorđević’s squad, from the beginning, demonstrate their power against a direct opponent for the ticket to the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 in China . In a “to be or not to be” game, the home team won in all four quarters (26 – 18, 23 – 15, 18 – 17 and 30 – 26). For the hosts, on the court were all the twelve players the head coach Đorđević selected to play against Israel (Miloš Teodosić, Marko Simonović, Stevan Jelovac, Milenko Tepić, Dragan Milosavljević, Miroslav Raduljica, Stefan Birčević, Vladimir Lučić, Nikola Milutinov, Ilija Đoković, Aleksa Avramović and Đorđe Gagić) and all, except Gagić, managed to score.

@FIBAWC: Milutinov and Lučić with Serbia, Micić questionable (Israel in Belgrade)

The Serbian national team will face Israel in the most important match of the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 European Qualifiers (for both teams) in the Aleksandar Nikolić Sports Hall. After the surprising loss against Estonia, in Tallinn, with a score of 71 – 70, Aleksandar Đorđević’s squad is facing with the possibility of not to be in China this September. A «Minimal defeat» (even by 21 points, as you can check through this link) can also take the Serbian team to China, but then they will depend on the other match, so it is better to say that in order to play the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019, the home team needs to win against Israel. In the game, in Pionir, Nikola Milutinov and Vladimir Lučić will play and help the team in order to fulfil the goal, and also Vasilije Micić is in Belgrade too, but his participation

@FIBAWC: Estonia surprised Serbia, “winner takes it all” against Israel in Belgrade

0

The Serbian basketball squad didn’t use their chance in Tallinn to qualify for the World Cup in China because they lost against Estonia with a score of 71 – 70. The Match against Israel on Sunday from 16:00 h. in Belgrade will be crucial for Aleksandar Đorđević’s squad. In Tallinn, the Serbian team was leading during three quarters and at the first minute of the last quarter the score was 49 – 57 (+8) for the guests. But then, the home team woke up and got closer. Đorđević’s squad helped the hosts with a lousy defense and postponed the decision about the last participant of the World Cup 2019 from the Group L (Greece and Germany already qualified). The Estonian squad scored four (from a total of 9) three pointers in the last quarter. That was the punishment for the guests because they didn’t used the given chance to lead

0

In the last FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 European Qualifiers window, Serbia will face Estonia in Tallinn and Israel in Belgrade. The Serbian squad needs only one win (or, maybe, noone) in order to become one of the participants in the World Cup 2019 that will take place in China, and the first match point will be against Estonia. Aleksandar Đorđević decided which 12 players will play in the first game and one of them is Miloš Teodosić, who recently (on February 7, 2019, just 14 days ago) was waived by the Clippers. Besides Miloš, the other 11 players who will play in Estonia are: Ilija Đoković (Borac Čačak), Milenko Tepić (PAOK), Dragan Milosavljević (Málaga), Aleksa Avramović (Varese), Ivan Paunić (free agent), Marko Simonović (Zenit), Stefan Birčević (Bonn), Stevan Jelovac (Bamberg), Miroslav Raduljica (Jiangsu Dragons), Nikola Jovanović (Trento) and Đorđe Gagić (Partizan). Maybe Nikola Milutinov and Vasilije Micić will help

The National team of Serbia won 84 – 61 against Greece in the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 European Qualifiers in the “Aleksandar Nikolić” Sports Hall (also known as Pionir), in Belgrade. It was the first defeat for Hellas in these Qualifiers. Before the game, Greece had already Qualified for China due to its 9 Victories. On the other side, if Serbia wants to participate at the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019, Đorđević’s squad needs to win one of the two remaining games in these Qualifiers: against Estonia or Israel. Those games will be played in February. Stefan Jović was the top scorer with 22 points for Sebia. The Point guard from Munich also had 4 assists and 3 steals but 7 turnovers. Two of his teammates finished the game with 13 points each one of them: Miroslav Raduljica and Vasilije Micić. The EuroLeague MVP of November also had 6

The Serbian basketball team is playing against Greece in Belgrade and before that match, the head coach Aleksandar Đorđević made a comment about the game against Israel. Serbia lost in Tel Aviv with a score of 83 – 74. “We reacted very well after defeat against Israel. We know where we made mistakes and, also, why. We analysed some things, talk about them, the way we always do and after yesterday recovering practice, today we are on the court again to get ready for Greece. We need to forget the match against Israel ASAP. We learned something from that game and now we need to focus on Greece. They won’t feel any pressure.

@FIBAWC: Đorđević’s squad on the rocky road after defeat in Tel Aviv (@FIBA)

0

In the first game of the November FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 European Qualifiers Window, Israel won 83 – 74 against Serbia in Tel Aviv and ruined the first chance for Aleksandar Đorđević’s squad to book a ticket for China. After the defeat in Israel, Serbia will take the harder road in order to go to the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 and try to defend the silver medal from Spain they won in 2014. During the whole match the national team of Serbia was searching for its own game, and both teams were leading during the match. At the end, the last quarter decided the winner, and, in that period of the game, the guests were clueless against the excellent home team play. Guy Pnini was the top scorer, with 18 points and 3 rebounds in Israel. His teammate Jake Cohen added 14, while two players finished the match
