2010 FIBA World Championship Turkey USA B Team Official Thread

[Archie Moses]

Brazil completely collapsed in the 4th quarter offensively....or this game wouldn't have been close! USA team is made up of a bunch of hoppers with the hopper mentality! They are in BIG trouble!

You sound like a racist American.

...I'm pulling for ANYBODY but the USA....and I'm a racist American??? Go figure.

The Abercrombie guy for NZ looks pretty good. Wonder if he is available. Would like to seem him brought in to compete for the 5th wing spot.

 

[NCJazz]

Spain loses and goes to 1-2. Still should make second round, but playing well below their potential right now. Perhaps they will start to take the first round seriously.

Actually it would make you nationalistic or possibly anti-american- racist must be based on a race. And as everybody knows Americans are from many racial backgrounds.

As for the team I enjoy watching them play. They turn the ball over way too much.

From the games I've seen Splitter >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Tomic.

Begin flame.

 

[honz]

Splitter is also older and more experienced than Topic.

 

[NUMBERICA]

Splitter is also unanimously viewed as better than Tomic. In just about every way.

 

[NCJazz]

Splitter was viewed as the best big man outside the NBA so not really a big controversy there. Tomic is also a few years younger as mentioned. As we all know Tomic still needs to add some muscle to become a really good player in the nba. US playing Iran today. They are actually keeping it close. Obviously the US will blow them out in the end, but the Gold is up for grabs.

 

[NCJazz]

Tomic better today against the mighty Tunisians 7-11, 15pts, 9rebounds in 17 minutes.

The Tunisians' mens or womens team?

Either a pathetic attempt at a joke, or a glorious display of nba knowledge fail.

Oh man. Trying to call someone else out for lack of NBA knowledge and displaying your own lack thereof in one post, biggity-bam.

You sound like overconfident American

It's impossible to be overconfident as an American.

Unfortunately, it was the soccer team, so hard to judge Tomic from this one.

 

[NCJazz]

Great game for anybody who had a chance to watch it on tv or internet between Serbia and Spain. Teodosic for backup PG for the Jazz? Unfortunately he would want way to much money. Serbia could very well be the US's opponent in the final.

I wouldn't want to play Turkey with their home court advantage.

Yes, they were quite impressive against Slovenia today. They have got a big team with Turkoglu, Illyasova, Erdin, Asik, and Savas. Their backcourt is not as good as their frontcourt and if we do play them our guards really need put a lot of pressure on them.

 

[NCJazz]

Tough win against Russia. Thank god for Durant. If he had not played I think we would probably be about the fourth or fifth best team. Probably play Argentina in the semis. Scola has carried the load for them.

Whoooops, Scola stunk it up. We play Lithuania in the semis. Man, we are in the easy bracket.
