Turkish team is playing really bad on this tournament. As I said in my previous previews, they are the most undisciplined team, they are playing without desire to win, and although they have great talented players in the names of Turkoglu, Okur and Kutluay, they are playing like bunch of amateurs. Main factor for this is poor management of coach Tanjevic and cause of all of this is bad dressing room atmosphere. But, although they won only against Czech Republic and they are on the last place, they still have chances to advance if they beat Italy and France until the end, but to be honest that is mission impossible.

Italy played decent basketball so far, but on some matches their luck run out. Still although 0/3 so far, they have chances to reach the quarter finals with beating Turkey today and Germany in the last round. They will try to win this match to keep their chances alive, because if they lose this match and Germany wins against Slovenia, Italy is going home. I rate Italian team much better than the Turkish one, with more team spirit and with much better dressing atmosphere. I believe that Italy are more than capable of winning against the low moralized Turkey.
