20 points win! 41 points win! The strongest dark horse in the European Championship was born, and the peak showdown between Jokic was big and big

The group stage of the 2025 Men's Basketball European Championship is coming to an end, and the pattern is beginning to take shape, and some are happy and some are sad. Eight teams, Turkey, Serbia, Germany, Lithuania, Latvia, Finland, Greece and Poland, advanced to the top 16 ahead of schedule, which is a gratifying congratulations. Among these eight teams, only Turkey, Serbia, Germany, Greece and Poland remain unbeaten. Germany is the former World Cup champion, Serbia is the number one favorite to compete for the championship. The pressure on the competition between the Greek and Poland teams is less, and their winning streaks are in line with expectations; on the other hand, Turkey is in a group of death but remains unbeaten, which is definitely the strongest dark horse of this European Championship.

20 points win, 41 points win

This men's basketball European Championship, Turkey is in Group A, and the opponents in the group stage are Serbia, Latvia, Estonia, Portugal and Czech. This group includes the top favorite Serbian team led by Jokic, and the host Latvia team led by Porzingis. It can be said that it is hidden and its strength cannot be underestimated. The leading figure of the Turkey team is the Rockets' young center Shin Kyung. He has the reputation of Jokic Jr., but he does not have the brilliant resume and unparalleled dominance like Jokic, nor does he have the projection skills and defensive deterrence like Boss. The outside world does not believe that the young Shin Kyung can lead the Turkish team to make trouble.

What can be achieved? After 4 games in the group stage, the Turkish team turned into the biggest dark horse in this European Championship and frequently created surprises! In the opening game, the host Latvia team fought hard and started with a 20-point victory. In the Czech Republic, Turkey completed the reversal when it was lagging behind in the beginning, and won a 14-point victory. In the face of Portugal, Turkey only gave the opponent 54 points and washed the opponent with a 41-point victory. In the face of Estonia, Turkey won another 20-point victory.

Turkey is underestimated, and Shen Jing beats the record

4 group matches, and the Turkish team beats the opponent by 95 points, ranking second in all teams, second only to Germany (4 wins and 0 losses, net defeats the opponent by 134 points). In comparison, Serbia in Group A won all four games, with a net victory of only 71 points. There is no doubt that this Turkish team is seriously underestimated. They have height in the interior and their rebounding advantage is suffocating; they have shooters on the outside, and their efficient and stable three-point shooting is ruined. More importantly, Jokic Jr. has been perfectly upgraded, and his dominance is impressive and has won many records.

The opening match against Latvia, Shin Kyung scored 16 points + 8 rebounds + 7 assists alone. He became the first player in Turkey's history to score at least 15 points + 5 rebounds + 5 assists in a single game in the European Championships many times. Reversing the Czech Republic, Shen Jing scored 23 points + 12 rebounds + 9 assists; defeated Portugal, Shen Jing scored 20 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists after get off work in the third quarter; defeated Estonia, Shen Jing scored 21 points + 8 rebounds + 5 assists. According to statistics, Shin Kyung is the first player in the European Championship to score at least 20 points + 5 rebounds + 5 assists in three consecutive games in the past 30 years. FIBA ​​killers such as Antetokounmpo, Doncic and Jokic have not been able to achieve them.

The strongest dark horse in the European Championship was born, and the peak showdown between Jokic was

The Turkish team had a balanced internal and external offense and defense. Shen Jing's dominance on both offense and defense was far beyond expectations. This is why the Turkish team became the strongest dark horse in this European Championship. Both Turkey and Serbia remain unbeaten. They will stage a strong dialogue in the last game of the group stage, and the outcome of this game will directly determine the ownership of the top spot in Group A. What is unfavorable to Serbia is that captain Bogdan exited the European Championship early due to injury, but then again, Jokic was almost in the paddling mode in the group stage, only standing up and scoring 39 points + 10 rebounds when Serbia encountered a crisis against Latvia. Of course, this game is also a model showdown between Jokic and Jokic, which will directly test Shin Kyung's quality and the value of Turkey's record. If Jokic and Jokic can play a declaration-like game in front of Jokic, then this dark horse team will really have a chance to compete for the medal. Fans, what do you think about this?
