USA vs. Australia

[Spurologist]

wtf is going with the WC scheduling. :wtf

I heard the game was at midnight ET on ESPN 2, so I checked the tv guide and fucking MLS and Off Road racing occupy that time slot. The USA Basketball website is a pile of crap run by chimps. Fiba.com might as well just give up now. Do the USA players even know when the game starts?

If someone has a clue on wtf is going on, please speak now.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

The game is at 1pm in Japan which is midnight ESPN in the USA but i have no idea why the schedule wouldnt say thats its on at midnight

[boutons_]

On GrandeCom/San Antonio, ESPN2, 00:00 to 02:00 Sunday shows "basketball".

So far, all prevous ESPN2 WC game time slots have been also 2 hours.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

It's at 11pm san antone time on NBATV

[stress]

check espn 2 says it right there

[AZLouis]

Yep starts 10pm Arizona Time.

It shows on my cable as being played. It didn't this morning as it was showing other programming.

This morning a FIBA game was supposed to be played at 10am, according to my cable, but it was the WSOP. Which was cool anyway cause it was the final table.

[Spurologist]

According to ESPN now, it is at 1 am

[spurschick]

It is on NBA TV right now

[manu]

Bogut Behind The Back And That 3 Pointer Wow

[SuperManu!!!]

15 Aus - 14 Usa

[resistanze]

Oooh it's actually on Raptors NBA TV. I'm off!

[Spurologist]

I love ESPN. They say they will show a basketball game yesterday and they put the contender. Now they shift the game 1 hr behind the actual live game.

[StylisticS]

Gotta love ESPN :rolleyes

It's on NBATV, though, and it's 41-24 US. I like Wade. He owned my team in the finals but I like him. But everytime he is in the open court. I hold my breath because he is turnover prone. And when he turnovers the ball, he mysteriously does it if that makes sense lol. :lol

Australia has scored 1 point in the 2nd and Bogut has 3 fouls.

[Kori Ellis]

ESPN2 will televise all USA Basketball games live from the 2006 FIBA World Basketball Championship in Japan, which tips off when the USA meets Puerto Rico on Saturday, Aug. 19, at 1 a.m. (ET) on ESPN2.


Before the WC started, ESPN said All USA games were supposed to be live on ESPN2 and then repeated on tape delay on NBATV ... but they haven't exactly been abiding that.

[StylisticS]

US 27
Australia 23
End of 1

US 59
Australia 29

Yeah that pissed me off yesterday too. My guide even had "FIBA basketball" but when I selected on the channel Contender was on.

[Sway]

Man Team USA is looking really good against Australia. Bosh seems to be a new player the last two games. JJ is not having too bad of a game either.

[THE SIXTH MAN]

For those who are interested its on right now on ESPN 2 time warner San Antonio.

[boutons_]

shitty, uncompetitive basketball, probably more shit games like this for 1 or 2 more games.

[ShoogarBear]

I didn't think Australia played that bad. I thought USA was on fire and played their best game so far. I guess any games that aren't close are shitty to you.

unfortunately the US will lose in the next round as they are playing the most dominant male athlete of the 21st century :elephant

It's easier to hit 3-point plays when your hands aren't weighed down by any rings.

[xamila rey]

OWNED :lol

[ShoogarBear]

As we learned from the 3-point contest, Dirk needs extra help from officiating to win anything.
