Group F scenarios

By Aris Barkas/ barkas@eurohoops.net

The second round of Eurobasket will be completed in a few hours, the quarterfinal couples will be set and the final standings of Group F will be decided. At this point however only Finland is eliminated from quarterfinals.

There are six different scenarios with Spain being in danger in only one of them and Greece hoping for a miracle. To be exact the only case in which Spain will be eliminated and Greece will get the fourth place of group F is for the Greeks to beat Croatia, then Italy to beat Spain and Slovenia to get the win over Finland. In this scenario, Slovenia will finish on top of the standings, Croatia will be second and Italy third.

If Croatia beats Greece and Spain prevails over Italy, then Croatia will finish on first place, Slovenia, even after a defeat by Finland, will be second, Spain will be third and Italy fourth. If Croatia and Italy wins, then the two top spots will be the same, but Italy will be third and Spain fourth.

If Greece, Spain and Finland get the win, then Spain will be first, Slovenia second, Croatia third and Italy fourth. Slovenia will get the top spot, leaving Spain second, if they beat Finland and also Greece and Spain get their wins.
