This is the only chance to be first in the group to avoid Spain till finals: There is a lot harder road ahead if we are second!

First calculations are starting to appear in groups for Eurobasket after three rounds - there are two different paths for our national team - harder and easier, and we need help for easier and everything doesn't depend on us

There is already a match against Great Britain on Tuesday (16h RTS) after the important win over Turkey in the third round of group D of Eurobasket. However, many will watch the game between Latvia and Russia, because that duel will decide the placement of the first three teams in the group.

THAT IS THE REAL SERBIA! Eagles were great in the game, Bogdan and Jovic silenced Istanbul! (VIDEO)

The first place brings easier rival in the last sixteen and allows the team to avoid the greatest favorites, Spain, all the way to the finals.

Russia, Serbia, and Latvia can get the first place, and Russia is in the best position because they have all three wins from the first three rounds, while Serbia and Latvia have the score of 2:1. Serbia also has the better chances of being in front of Latvia because of the win in the first round with 10 points difference (92:82)

A possible opponent for that Semifinals would be first in group B (greatest chances go to Lithuania) and second place from group C (most probably Croatia).

And then the great finals with Spania...

AND WHAT IS THE PATH TO THE FINALS IF WE ARE SECOND IN THE GROUP?

If Russia beats Latvia, Serbia will most likely end up in the second place. According to the current situation in group C, with which we combine, it will most likely be Montenegro, if they justify the role of the favorite against Czech and Romania in the last two rounds.

Potential quarterfinals, in that case, would bring the duel against the first team from group A or the fourth team from group B. Slovenia and France will battle for the first place in the group A and everything is possible in the group B so far.

If the Eagles reach the semifinals, Spain would probably wait for them there, which has to confirm the first place in the group C against Croatia.

Possible finals would be the winners of the duels from the first places in the groups B and D, but Croats would have a role as well if they ended up in the second place, that is for sure.
