PARKER, DE COLO, Gelabale, Turiaf and Diaw starting line up
Too bad ryan richards pulled out of the GB National team.
De Colo starting with Parker, now Parker on the bench he is running the point.
Not seen him attack the basket much, made some decent passes though
He wouldn't start ahead of pops and Freeland anyway.
De Colo with an early three pointer Parker seems to be ok
too bad Noah is out for the Olympics
Diaw is getting pretty skinny these days.
How often does France start Parker and De Colo in the backcourt?
P.S.
Box score anywhere?
yeah I'm looking for the boxscore, hard to find live boxscores for friendly games like these
Surprised France start with De Colo at the 2 when they have Pietrus. Do any Euro fans know if De Colo play the 2 a lot?
Parker gone to the locker room before start of 2nd
Nice find
Not sure if allowed on here (sorry if not) but its live on ESPN in UK and firstrow has live streams
Diaw we could have used that against OKC, drive and dunk
The Pietrus on FNT is Florent Pietrus, Mickael older brother. He is a PF.
De Colo has played as much PG than SG in the past 3 years.
Pietrus is the older brother an is a 4
Why isn't mickael pietrus playing? Will he be at the Olympics?
France looks pretty damn bad. Diaw is the only player playing at even a mediocre level. De Colo has looked bad -- no penetration or creation and shaky passes -- but hopefully that's just due to his recent travel.
GB is a lot sharper; I'm assuming they've been preparing for a longer period of time.
Anytime you think NBA refs are bad, just watch an international game and then thank your lucky stars.
Diaw (8) and De Colo (7) are leading scorers for France at halftime, but other than that, FNT not playing well.
Coach choice. Mickael Pietrus has a complicate relationship with FNT. The coach decided not to select him this year. After his non-selection, he ahd a knee surgery so he won't be at the Olympcis even if there are injuries.
de colo seems okay with the ball, made some pretty okay passes i thought near the end of that half. would like to see him attack space better...there was one pick and roll he could've split (you'd think) and he just kind of let the opportunity pass by. maybe tp will teach him how to spot that a little better.
One play in the 2nd I didn't like from De Colo he got picked inside the paint as he was trying to play help defense and as the pass kicked out to the 3 point line he just stood there in the paint and didn't attempt to get back leaving his teammate having to guard 2 players on the 3 point line, who played hot potato which lead to a 3.
Did Parker get hurt? He seemed to kinda limp to the locker room at one point and then looked pissed sitting on the bench. Now he's not starting the second half . . .
Hopefully the plan was just for him to play one stint in the first half to start getting back in shape.
De Colo with a good finish at the rim to start, then an airball
Yeah. He is icing his left knee. Doesn't seem too serious however.
