Without lose Greece finished its games in Hamamatsu on the first round of World Championship in Japan and Dimos Dikoudis and all his companions have lots of reasons to be very satisfied. “We finished the first round with five wins in five matches, which is big issue on a World Championship” told Dikoudis, who was one of the best players of Greece during the matches on the third group in Hamamatsou.
Now Greece plays in the second round in Saitama against China and its star Yao Ming. “We faced China, which is a team, we can beat and pass to the quarter finals. We have to play good basketball, without giving to China any opportunity to claim the game. Our goal is to play better than the games on Hamamatsu, without mistakes. I don’ t think China has the quality to exclude us”. About Yao Ming, Greek player said: “Ming makes the difference, but I don’t think he can beat us”
