With the threat of an NBA lockout, and the cancellation of Summer league, Eurobasket just got more exciting. Only the top two teams are guaranteed spots in next years Olympics, and only the top 6 will remain in contention to even qualify. With only one or two of those teams actually getting spots.

Here are some of the announced Squads.

France is coming strong.

Tony Parker
Roddy Beobois
Mickael Pietrus
Boris Diaw
Joakim Noah
Ian Mahinmi
Nicalos Batum

Spain is the defending champs and has to be the favorites

Ricky Rubio
Rudy Fernandez
Pau Gasol
Marc Gasol
Victor Claver
Calderon
Navarro
Serge Ibaka
Felipe Reyes
San Emeterio
Sergio Llull



Italy will be raining three's with..

Bargnani
Gallinari
Belinelli


Host Nation Lithuania announced a preliminary squad of about 20 players.. Some interesting names included..

Šarūnas Jasikevičius
Jonas Valančiūnas
Darius Songaila
Donatas Motiejūnas

Will this be our first chance to get a good glmpse at Valanciunas and Montiejunas?

Serbia is filled with young talent that was on exhibit last year at the world championships

Miloš Teodosić
Nemanja Bjelica
Kosta Perović

Slovenija with a core of
Dragič - Lakovic
Ožbolt - Z.Dragic
Nachbar - Jagodnik
Lorbek - Slokar
Vidmar - Begič

is looking for a medal.. Again some players decided not to play for national team - Udrih, S.Vujacic, Brezec, Rasho ( NT retirenment)


...much more to come

Who will show up for the Turkey team? Will Kanter play? Kanter, Asik, Illyasova, Turkoglu, Erdin and company could be a very tough squad to beat.

Will Dirk play?

So many questions! I can't wait!

What is your expectations ?
