In 1947 Yugoslavia made their EuroBasket debut and finished in the 13th place.
Since then, step by step, they made it to greatness.
Today, 60 years later, under the name Serbia, they find themselves in a similar situation. Israel beat Serbia 87-83 in one of the most intense games in EuroBasket and qualified to
Since then, step by step, they made it to greatness.
Today, 60 years later, under the name Serbia, they find themselves in a similar situation. Israel beat Serbia 87-83 in one of the most intense games in EuroBasket and qualified to
the next round in Madrid.
Both teams fought to survive and while at first it seemed Serbia had the upper hand, Israel showed great character and took over the game in the second half.
"It's all my fault and I take the full responsibility. I picked the players so I can't blame them," said the Serbia coach, Zoran Slavnic, to the press after the game.
Those players he picked were very tired from last night's overtime battle against Greece, and couldn't match up the intensity of the Israeli team.
Serbia took a small lead early in the game, and after Milan Gurovic connected two from the line his team led 23-16 at the end of the first quarter.
Milos Teodosic scored four points in a row at the end of the second quarter to give Serbia their biggest lead of the night, 33-45, but Yotam Halperin who kept his team in the game throughout the first half, answered at the other end with a three-pointer that sent the teams to rest with a nine point difference between them.
Israel, who missed the injured center Erez Markovic, watched Yaniv Green make two quick fouls in the first half when he played only 7:40 minutes.
That allowed Serbia to shoot 63% from two point range in the first half.
"At half time we spoke only about defense," revealed the winning coach, Zvika Sherf, and it showed on court.
When the second half gong sounded Israel stormed out with bigger intensity.
Their defense was much more aggressive and slowly the difference got smaller and smaller.Green was in full control on the boards and matched up Darko Milicic, as Israel took the lead 61-60 in the last seconds of the third quarter after Green connected two from the line.
Milicic gave the lead back to Serbia only to see Guy Pnini combine seven points in a row to give his team a 68-62 lead.
Serbia came back to minus one but never took the lead back.
Israel, who shot 88% from the line tonight, connected on seven of their last eight free throws in the last 21 seconds to secure the win, and send Serbia 60 years back.
