September 11th news: Finland defeated Georgia 93-79 in the European Championships of the Men's Basketball Team. Finnish player Markanen said in an interview after the game that FIBA games may be more intense than the NBA.
Speaking of the comparison of the score ratio in the NBA and in the FIBA, Markanen said: "I think this problem has two sides. Every NBA team has the best players in the world, with longer plays (12*4), so there are more opportunities to score. In addition, the NBA rules such as three-second violations in defense and not allowing the ball to be shot on the basket, making the points relatively easier and the game smoother. However, NBA game referees will pay attention to the details of physical confrontation, and sometimes you will get a call. But I think overall the FIBA game is definitely more intense!"
In this game, Markanen made 7 of 12 shots, contributing 17 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 blocks.
