In an unusual stance, Rimas Curtinitis avoided for a second consecutive day to speak to the Greek media ahead of the big match between national basketball and the Lithuania In view of his quarter -finals Eurobasket.
Although all the players and executives of both national Greece and Lithuania have normally made statements to the press representatives, the Lithuanian coach kept his “papers closed” towards Greek journalists, in a strange behavior.
Indeed, on Sunday night (7/9), Curtinitis spoke without a problem with Lithuanian reporters, but as soon as representatives of Greek media appeared, turning his back on and left, without making any statement!
Something similar happened today Monday (8/9), just a day before the crucial quarter -finals. His refusal to answer questions from the Greek side has raised questions and commentary, but no official explanation for his attitude has been given.
It is recalled that Greece faces Lithuania on Tuesday (09/09) with the aim of qualifying for the Eurobasket for the first time since 2009.
