Europe's top NBA players once again carried their national teams on a shock-free second day of the 2011 European Championships as holders Spain, hosts Lithuania, Germany and Turkey came up with convincing wins. Los Angeles Lakers star Pau Gasol poured in 20 points to lead Spain in an 87-73 blasting of Portugal to remain perfect at 2-0 in Group A in Panevezys. "We used a lot of our players in order to give others the necessary rest before tomorrow's (Friday) very difficult game (against Great Britain)," said Spain coach Sergio Scariolo. "Overall we reached our goal which was to have two wins after the opening two games." Lithuania cruised past Poland 97-77 with Mantas Kalnietis leading the way with 19 points while five others scored at least eight points. Turkey are also 2-0 following a 90-61 mauling of Great Britain with Emir Preldzic's 15 points pacing four Turkish players in double figures. In Group B in Siauliai, France's San Antonio Spurs star guard Tony Parker collected 21 points to lead Les Bleus to an 85-68 victory over Israel while Nicolas Batum added 15 for the 2-0 French. "We are happy to have won this game. There could be a trap game after a win. But we were really focused and took this game seriously," said France's Charlotte Bobcats forward Boris Diaw. Germany used a 14-2 run to close the game and remain perfect, staving off a tough Italy side 76-62 with NBA stars Dirk Nowitzki (21 points and 12 rebounds) and Chris Kaman (17 and 17) both collecting double-doubles. "What can you say about Dirk? He just did his thing again," said Kaman, who collected 10 points and eight rebounds in the fourth quarter. "In the fourth quarter we finished the game strong. Dirk had a good all-around game and I finally got it going a bit in the fourth quarter. We got a good win." Also in Group B, Nenad Krstic and Dusko Savanovic combined for 42 points to lead Serbia to their second straight win, a 92-77 decision over winless Latvia.
