Thank you. It was a big help, because there were a lot of old datas.

And @all:
I'm glad that I can funtion as your NT manager again. Thanks for voting. Today I received also two messages from the new managers of Höstner and Ahlhult. Both will be trained towards the NT, so there will be two more prospects for our NT pool .

The first scouting round has ended. I took a look at around 100 players and eliminated a first batch of them from my list. After the training update on Friday, I will make the second round and update the NT database. After that there will be a big summary of the player pool.
The NT will be nominated on Sunday morning. The main reason is the game on Saturday. Because of a possible injury, I will what a look if the main players will be fit. The second reason is the game shape. Players with GS 6 or lower won't play. GS 7 is a border line. I will depend on the position and the tactic for the game. GS 8 and 9 are the desired ones and the players with these GSs will be prefered.

The tactic and line up is set. The first game of the european championship is against Armenia.
Let's see if we can start well tomorrow. Despite some problems with the game shape.

Damn we got lucky
Thanks to our incredible game shape (attention: sarcasm!) Armenia almost got us. With Sandbom and Mazzolini out because of GS 6, Tunggard and Tjädermo had to start. And these two delieverd an exellent game. 77,4% FG, 57 pts, 26 reb and 13 ast kept us alive. Martinsson had a bad shooting day but finished with 14 assists.

My biggest concern is, that with a low enthusiasm and game shape, we hurt ourselves very much. The defense is heavily influenced by these factors and our team is one which comes through thanks to the wide range of defenders. Armenia showed us what happens, if we cannot use the defense to its whole amount.

Take a look at the Czech Republic. They lost against Lithuania because of 1 point! And Slovakia has to play a second Overtime against Macedonia. If they lose, the two powerhouses will already have a problem...

Second win and that means:

1 - Italy 2:0 244:205 +39
2 - Sweden 2:0 219:195 +24
3 - Macedonia 2:0 279:268 +11
4 - Slovakia 1:1 287:271 +16
5 - Lithuania 1:1 217:235 -18
6 - Czech Rep. 0:2 221:229 -8
7 - Armenia 0:2 224:246 -22
8 - Cypres 0:2 180:222 -42

Italy, as expected, without a lose and with a strong performance. Slovakia is back after their lose during the first game day. And the two biggest surprises are Macedonia and Czech Republic. The first one sits behind us and is only because of the point difference third, and the other ones started with a 0:2 and face already elimination.

About our game:
A very nice minutes destribution and because of that we have really low ratings. But they doesn't matter. The important thing is, that we won with a strong defense and that we can move forward.
During his second NT game, Säfen finished as the leading scorer of the team. Birgersson had a really nice stat line too. So our first young prospects are moving nearer to the NT and hopefully, they will improve more and more.
The game showed again that some of the players could use a couple of skill ups here and there. But either they are already capped or to old. But with the younger generation coming closer, we should get a new quality of players...
