Argentina vs. Australia on tv?

[Spurs#20]

Does anyone know where they show argentina australia on tv today?

Thanks.

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

If you have the Olympic Basketball channel.... then yes

[Spurs#20]

I couldn't find the olympic basketball channel on direct tv :(

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Try 754... I think you need HD though

[Spurs#20]

That channel doesn't show anything.....
Thanks anyways
Please help, Argentine Man going crazy here....lol

[TMTTRIO]

I don't know but you may be able to watch it live here. I noticed they're showing other games live on it too.

[Spurs#20]

Thanks man... I'm going to try that.
Does anyone know where I can find the olympic basketball channel on direct tv without the hd service?

[milkyway21]

hope Spain will lose to China.
last 2 min in the 3rd they're up 47-62

now only Croatia and Lithuania are unbeaten teams w/ 2-0
U.S. w/ 1-0

Argentina must win

[MannyIsGod]

Its probably going to be on USA after the USA game.

[MI21]

Hope they show it over here on TV.

I'm looking forward to watching the Aussie guys play against good NBA caliber talent. I will really be able to evaluate and form some opinion of the Aussie guys after watching them play against some guys that I really know. (Oberto, Manu, etc)

[Spurs#20]

Is it going to be on channel USA after the US-Angola game?

[spurschick]

anyone know the link for live updates?

[MannyIsGod]

Its not on USA :(

[Spurs#20]

fuckkkk....hopefully they show it online :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:

[urunobili]

can someone provide a windows link?

[spurschick]

I know there is a video link on nbcolympics.com, but there is also a link to play by play updates somewhere, but I can't find it now.

That works only for people in the US....

[Sp Ginobili 20]

That works only for people in the US....

Sorry. It was the only thing I could find :(

[Pero]

No problem. I can't find anything else either, at least anything that would work.

[Otaku]

Argentina with a good start :)

[Mr. Body]

Watching it on the BBC. Scola's going off early. Man, was it stupid trading this guy.

[maxpower]

on dish network HD channel 99(olympics basketball channel)

[carina_gino20]

anyone have an online link? or one for live updates?

[urunobili]

motherfucking steal by Oberto!

[urunobili]

it's a Manu tres!

[carina_gino20]

anyone who wants an online link? post here and I'll pm you.

[Sausage]

Ginobili and Oberto are looking pretty good so far.

And One Fabricio!

[Spurs#20]

links can be found on rojadirecta.com

[MI21]

Australian coach is a stupid fuck. Not playing some players and playing some fucked up lineups. I could do a better job.

Manu looks like he is mucking around out there, not playing hard at all, but still playing well. Had a really nice pass to Oberto early. Oberto killing it out there.

[urunobili]

AND1 Oberto mofos!

[Sausage]

lol, scola.

[Pero]

http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/index.html

This one works only for US.

[Pero]

I'd like a link Carina. :)

[MI21]

That was the worst tip dunk ever Scola :lol

Nocioni is annoying. Flopping the whole game defensively, get's in Boguts back, and then wants to fight him? Then an off the ball foul... It's easy to be tough when the guy isn't facing you.

[Hemotivo]

Scola with the monster dunk!

[Hemotivo]

Nocioni is an animal

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

It was the Ginobili to Oberto show in the first quarter.

Aussies looked shell-shocked until Mills came in and straightened them up a bit. Now in the 2nd quarter they look a little better.

Anyone watch Opals vs Brazil last night? Worst referred game I've EVER seen, and those Brazilian women are flopping, hacking biatches, especially number 11 - total whinging 'ho. Loved it when Lauren Jackson owned them all at the end with 2 straight clutch baskets, just to remind them who's the boss... ah, Lauren, if only you batted for the right team - I'd still have no hope, but a man can dream! :lmao

[MI21]

Manu is just chilling out there trying to make fancy passes :lol

Not trying at all. Good, stay healthy Manu.

[spurschick]

anyone who wants an online link? post here and I'll pm you.

yes please

[Hemotivo]

Bogut in foul trouble, oberto is playin' great

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

That was the worst tip dunk ever Scola :lol

Nocioni is annoying. Flopping the whole game defensively, get's in Boguts back, and then wants to fight him? Then an off the ball foul... It's easy to be tough when the guy isn't facing you.

Nocioni is like that... that's why he'd be a great Spur. He's got a bit of Udoka in him. :lol

What should have been:

Parker
Mason
Bowen
Duncan
Thomas

Hill
Ginobili
Delfino
Scola
Oberto

Udoka
Mahinmi

Now THAT team would win another ring! And don't tell me we couldn't have gotten Delfino for some kind of S+T @ 4m/yr... what are the Russians paying him?

[Hemotivo]

bogut airball a 3

[rayweb_on]

link for the game....pleasee.. not an US link pleaseee

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu is just chilling out there trying to make fancy passes :lol

Not trying at all. Good, stay healthy Manu.

:tu

Who is this fucking idiot alongside Gaze??? I loke Andrew, but the other basketball commentators on 7 are atrocious - none of them know a thing about basketball. Very frustrating since i know I could do a better job than these turkeys, and actually show some insight into the game... :rolleyes

[Hemotivo]

good run by australia

end of the first half
Australia 29
Argentina 39

[MI21]

That's better by Newley.

The refs need to let them play, compared to other games in the comp so far, this is very ticky tack. That Scola move should of counted also.

[MI21]

:tu

Basil Zempilas. He is a douche of the highest order. Thinks he is an AFL god because he played a few games for West Perth in the WAFL. He is a Perth personality, reads the sports, hosts events etc... I've had the misfortune of meeting him a few times. Fully ragged on him for about 5 minutes whilst drunk one time. Gaze is awesome. Getting on Bogut about his intensity, I love to hear that.

I think Bruton should be playing very little. Worthington and Saville are terrible, Redhage needs more minutes. He has the unorthodox game to score against these random, gimmicky defenses.

[carina_gino20]

sorry guys, but the link I was using suddenly stopped broadcasting.. :pctoss

[Hemotivo]

sorry guys, but the link I was using suddenly stopped broadcasting.. :pctoss

check your pm's

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Yeah, screw Zempilas and the other douchebags they have thrown out there. Whoever did the USA China match didn't seem to know who Deron Williams is... I mean, fuck!?

They should have an open competition before every Olympics to determine who the commentators will be for various sports. Hell, I'd send in an audition tape.

As for the Aussies, the reserves looked much better than the starters - not pretty, but energetic at least.

Argentina will win by 15 though.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BTW, I am officially starting a Spurstalk Lauren Jackson fan club... who is in?

(...and yes, I know she's not at her peak right now, but we will see the real Lauren before this thing is done. And how awesome is that Opal team? Harrower, Taylor, Summerton, Batkovic are all playing very well! Gotta love the Opals!!! :) )

[Hemotivo]

is she hot or something?

[carina_gino20]

check your pm's

I just did.

[Hemotivo]

scola schooling bogut

[Hemotivo]

nice layup by manu

[Hemotivo]

argentina playing great

[Hemotivo]

I just did.

:(

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

is she hot or something?

I reckon she is - not hot like a model, but hot like a real person who happens to be 6'5", and she's very down-to-earth in interviews. I saw her in the supermarket once and my genes cried out for procreation. :oops

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

It's on again??? Fucking channel 7 are showing a Brit doing horse jumping, then the interminable ads... fucktards.

This coverage is PAINFUL.

:pctoss x1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

[Hemotivo]

argentina up by 15

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Jeeeeezooooos, now it's a fucking Dutchwoman horse jumping!?!?!? This is more important to an Australian audience than the Boomers??? I stayed up all fucking night to watch this game - more for the Argies than our team, but even so...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

FUCK CHANNEL 7 AND THEIR UTTERLY SHITHOUSE OLYMPICS COVERAGE.

:pctoss

[naico]

Mills is the real deal

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

oh god the Argentinians flop. It is disgusting to watch.

They certainly are the better team though. Noone on the Aussie team even looks any good except for Patrick Mills.

[MI21]

Chanel 7 bullshit... typical.. Horses? You got to be kidding me.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Cheers Buddy. Since I can't watch it on Australian TV (how fucking absurd is that???), Justin will have to do.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Ruffn.........it sucks that im in Africa and i still have better coverage of the aussie game than you do back home :lol

I even have Andrew Gaze commentating! :lol

[Hemotivo]

Arg 63
Aus 46

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Chanel 7 bullshit... typical.. Horses? You got to be kidding me.

Dude, totally. I can't believe this shit.

I just posted this at Yahoo 7:

"I stayed up until 1am to watch Aus v Arg in the basketball only to have the coverage disappear at half time to be replaced by 15 minutes of horse jumping by non-Aussies. Could they not have shown the basketball and then replays of the horse jumping? How do you show the first half then screw people like that?

What's more, the basketball commentators are clueless and know NOTHING about the game (except Andrew Gaze, who is great). I could do a much better job commentating basketball than these fools because I played and understand the game.

Overall, the 7 coverage has been pathetic, and the volume of ads ridiculous.

Screw you 7, you sure are screwing your viewers."

http://au.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080812074625AAbvrzx

Not that it will make any difference...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Ruffn.........it sucks that im in Africa and i still have better coverage of the aussie game than you do back home :lol

I even have Andrew Gaze commentating! :lol

:lmao Indeed!

Gaze is the only thing they've got right on channel 7 - their Olympics broadcast is a trainwreck, and there's more ads than programming. It's embarrassing.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

This is like the 11/11 game for our boy Raul Jesus! :lmao

Love the way the Argies play team ball - imagine if we had a benc of Oberto-Scola-Delfino-Manu! It would obliterate any other second team in the league with pure fundamentals.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Is Bogut injured? He looks HORRIBLE.

[Hemotivo]

Oberto > Bogut

he must be still injured

[Hemotivo]

arg 20 pt lead

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Damn the FO for not signing Delfino. He is EXACTLY what we needed to add some punch at the swing. :pctoss

Is it true he got 3yrs/$30mil equivalent in Russia??? I can't believe that. If so, fair enough that we didn't have a go at him...

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Mills > any PG in the Olympics right now......

The guy can't be stopped when he drives. He just needs to improve his outside J.

[MI21]

Well I just found out that a German won his 2nd gold medal riding a horse instead of watching my national basketball team... way to get priorities straight Chanel 7.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

im joking by the way :lol but he is darn good.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

I think channel 7 knew the Boomers were screwed :lol At least the Equestrian team had a hope in hell of winning :lol

[carina_gino20]

He'll be earning more bucks than Manu.

[MI21]

Mills is so quick...

[urunobili]

i can't understand why Australia was being so aggressive at the end when they knew they'd lose anyway... that's why the Argies shot with 1.1 left

[Lackluster]

He'll be earning more bucks than Manu.

that is crazy, but maybe manu can make more through endorsements here and abroad by being a successful player in the nba

[carina_gino20]

i can't understand why Australia was being so aggressive at the end when they knew they'd lose anyway... that's why the Argies shot with 1.1 left

I think point differential counts in the elimination round.

[amy020]

MANU finished with 21 points and 7 assists

[Hemotivo]

I saw her in the supermarket once and my genes cried out for procreation. :oops

:lol fair enough

[urunobili]

MANU finished with 21 points and 7 assists

:wow he did it so smoothly you couldn't tell :wow:wow:wow:wow:wow:wow

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

There is no way in hell that the Aussies will beat either of Lithuania or Russia. Kleiza will score 30 against the Aussies

[amy020]

:wow he did it so smoothly you couldn't tell :wow:wow:wow:wow:wow:wow

yes ,and also 4 rebounds, he shoot the ball 5-10

[carina_gino20]

Ginobili: 21 pts, 50% FG, 50% 3-pt, 4 rebs, 7 assts.

He was able to do some stat-padding during the closing minutes. :lol j/k.Those last two threes were important.

[Manufan909]

Manu for 3, FUCK YES!!! I apologize Manu, I will never doubt you or your NT ever again.
:worthy:

[tomtom]

ahh dammit missed it, anyone know if theres gonna be any replays? i noticed they never offered argentina's last game a replay on nbcolympics.com which kinda pissed me off.

[angel_luv]

MANU finished with 21 points and 7 assists

Whoosh! Happy birthday to me. :)

Well done, MG! :)

[Manufan909]

I know how you feel. Thankfully my friend has dvr, so she's recording all of the Argentian games, as well as the Americans. And it could've changed in the past fifteen minutes, but I don't think they have a rewind feature for this game either. Assholes.
:bang

[TMTTRIO]

actually they have the rewind feature on this game.

Which one is that? I can't click the link cuz I'm on a weak computer and it would prob freeze and die.

[tomtom]

thats dude you rock

[Manufan909]

fuck, there's a tech problem. Anyone else get that?

[wildchild]

Is Bogut injured? He looks HORRIBLE.
Andrew wasn't injured, the aussie coach is an idiot. And Oberto played so hard, too. I don't know why Oberto doesn't play with us like he plays in his NT.



Mills is so quick...
I watch USA AUSTRALIA last week. Mills made it difficult for Kidd to play or pass. He's a so good prospect.


Whoosh! Happy birthday to me. :)

Well done, MG! :)
I'm glad for your MG guy. Joyeux Anniversaire angel_luv! :toast

[Slippy]

You wouldn't have thought Argentina were struggling watching them last night. A sweet display of team ball , crisp and quick passing with orberto and Scola finding their spots for easy lay-ups. As posted earlier Manu was in stealth mode slowly but surely picking the Aussies apart with passing and some timely shots. One thing i didn't like was the Argentinian coach. He was constantly jawing away and his whiney facial expressions even when up 20 or so was annoying.

Aussies were flat to begin with a dependence on the perimeter shot and too much one on one. Our defense was always one step too late and on ball pressure was non-existent. Completely opposite to the Argies. Although Bogut had been recovering from a sore ankle he didn't look too bothered by it . Boomers tried to get some inside game going in the second half by repeatedly setting him up in the post. Bogut just kept missing. The Boomers were a massive letdown as a whole.

aussies are fukn shit anyway with this roster

im sure the bucks had a say in boguts new contract, stay low in these games and dont get injured for the upcoming season,
i cant stand the fukn coach though, and dont get me started with bruton wtf is he still on the team though....everytime his on the court its like playin 4on5.

andrew gaze wouldve got them a win if he was still on the team, im sure he can still play at the age if who knows what

ps. fukn scrubs made oberto lookd like he had game, and gonzalez a fukn scrub on the argent team....LMAO when he was pushing around the aussies, same with nocioni and delfino...

:tu Nice rundown, that's pretty much exactly what I saw... during the first half when I could watch it, anyway.

Pissed that I missed Manu's 2nd half stealth performance. :pctoss

[Manufan909]

I get to see it in five hours!!!

BTW, I look forward to one day coming to see your country. :)

I was hoping to see Argentina.

did you all know that the referee was the same one that robbed Argentina in the final match against Serbia in 2002?

[urunobili]

another thing... Kobe was in the stands with the Argentinean delegation and there are some photos he took with the Female Hockey team "Las Leonas"...
