Spain 2014 FIBA World Cup

Only watched teh 3rd quarter, but Exum is playing like a *****. His body doesn't seem to move that efficiently and he is scared to attack the rim and draw contact. He has no mid-range game either, so he is practically unable to score from anywhere on the court currently.
 
65-63 Brazil wins, deservedly. Interestingly both Gobert and Neto didn't play in the second half much.

Haha. We were trying to say the same thing more or less in a more kindly way but you just spoke it straight out. But, I always liked your bluntness so, I can't object it.
 
Weird game going on in Lithuania-Mexico game. Everything goes in but Mexicans are the ones who managed to score more so far.
 
45-41 Lithuania leads at half. Both teams shot lights out. Mexico slowed down towards the end of second Q. Gutierrez and Cruz hurt Lithuania a lot.
 
I haven't seen Exum much in these FIBA games, but in the little I've seen and what people are saying here, he's just not a very good basketball player right now. He might become good, due to lack of explosiveness I don't ever see him becoming a star, but he could certainly become a good PG at 6'6" with good vision and passing ability. Extremely high bust potential.
 
Lithuania has shooters everywhere but I don't like how they not utilizing their biggest strength in the post. They need to mix it up a bit more.

Agreed. They have big advantage inside but they play the opponents style. They should go inside almost every position.
 
I am very impressed with Motiejunas lateral quickness on defense - he has excellent rotations coming out on perimeter and dropping back in the paint. Not missing a step at all. For 7 footer that is just fantastic.

DMO taking huge steps forward. He might have improved this summer more than the total that he had previous years.
 
JV with effective 8/8 shooting and 17 pts/5reb in 22 minutes. Lithuania wins 87-74. Mexico will be fighting Australia for that 3d spot in the group.
 
Strong second half by Lithuania, an easy win overall.

No problem. I now could log into it with a different browser but still can't watch a thing. Can you stream the USA game?

The only thing I can really say about Exum is that he has vision.

Though, does he look so good at passing (at times) because he is literally focused on doing nothing else on the court?
 
How did the usa do today?
Anybody post a box score?
 
Anybody trying to watch the games at livebasketball.tv today? not having any luck today either :(
