Bring the gold home, Oberto and Manu- Obi and Ginobili! :)

Manu with 62. You heard it here first.
I love this. Its 2004 all over again. The US as cocky as ever, and us the 100 to 1 underdogs. Just remember, the bigger the ego, the tastier the crow.
Kobe defends Manu. Manu scores 16 points but Argentina loses by a wide margin.
Doug Collins actually runs out of breath as he proclaims Kobe Bryant the best defensive player in the history of the game.
kobe is an overrated defender.Quote:

Its going to be close the first three quarters, but the USA will pull away late in the third and onto the fourth. I think it will be US 99 Argentina 81.
However, I will not be surprised if Argentina wins. I doubt it, but wouldn't be surprised.

Manu 98 - 97 usa
ofcourse I'm talking about the fans, and WTF does it matter whether or not you're going to throw on a jersey and walk onto the court??
My point is the more shit you talk, the more it stings when shit don't go your way.
Agreed...and it works both ways which is what makes it fun. :)Quote:

Stop kidding yourself....
the whole point of this team is to make sure they don't sleep on teams...
USA will win by a lot
:lol good pointQuote:

Argentina will take a terrible beating. The players know it, the fans know it, the media knows it. It's just a matter of time.
I just wish Team USA beats the hell out of the spaniards as well, cause what I've been reading in their papers is just crazy.
They even wrote they let Team USA win in the first rounds so they would stomp them in the finals.
What I don't get is why is it such a big deal to some posters to destroy Argentina. It's just logic, this Team USA is just too talented for any other team in the tournament. They should win no matter who the oponent is.
I think you will see something similar to today. Argentina will be very competitive but the US pulls away in the second half. I don't think to the tune of a 30pt win though. I still say 15-20.
Oberto will score 45 pts, grab 19 rebounds, and Argentina beats USA 75-73 :wow
Who's Argentina?
What continent is that on?
When do they play? Also, I can't seem to find coverage of the US team. Only time I see them is when Kobe and LeBron are watching other events.
:lolThey are not watching other events, they are on the bench during garbage timeQuote:

It goes without saying that the US team will be heavily favored against Argentina, so the outcome of this game is somewhat obvious. It is no shame to lose to the multi-talented US squad. My question is---do the Argentines lose all hope of a bronze if they lose---do they go home?
Payback time in mind for LBJ and D-Wade. That will be enough fuel for Team USA.
I predict an old fashioned US beating with Manu being very well guarded and Scola getting hammered consistently on the low block.
Delfino will probably go back to his usual inconsistent self, Nocioni will be ejected and the other Argies will be irrelevant.
It's a shame this takes place in the semifinals, I would have loved Argentina to beat Spain and then going against Team USA for the gold.
i predict an NBA like pace of the game. starts off slow, then slowly picks up pace.
dont look for TA to do anything flashy. look for them to struggle at first trying not to lose the game rather than playing to win it.
i think this game will be a lot closer than people think. its not like TA isnt familiar with the style of play of team USA. what helps argentina is thier good defensive stances they make.
silly fouls,TO's and not getting defensive boards will put them in a deep hole really fast.
all in all, TA has to play a nearly PERFECT game to beat this team.
OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE!!!
If Argentina loses against the US, will they play the loser of Spain/Lithuania for the bronze medal?
usa still in the turnament?
I'm going for Argentina, but damn, Team USA is legit.
This USA team is too talented & more importantly, too focused. They are on a mission. I expect USA to win; it would be shocking if they don't....though I think Argentina may give them their toughest competiton yet. Still, USA by double digits over Argentina.
I hope Manu plays well. :king
Damnit! I have school during the game!
Fuck Argentina and Manu Ginobili.

I hope Argentina wins. I don't like a lot of the players representing team USA, enough of them. Plus, I always go for the underdog.
You can beat us by 50 and make the game a dunk contest. It won't change one bit how proud we feel about these guys representing our country. They represent work, passion, heart, sacrifice, dedication, teamwork, profesionalism with an amateur spirit, inteligence and talent.Quote:

It's time to curbstomp Scola and the horse he rode in on.
:hungry::hungry::hungry::hungry:
Doesn't almost half of the Argentina team play in the NBA??? The home of "money, endorsements, ego, and media" :lol:lol:lolQuote:

Stupid. Team USA is sacrificing more on a whole than Argentina. An injury could cost anyone on Team USA tens of millions of dollars. Half of Argentina's team plays in trash leagues and don't have much on the line if something happens.Quote:

Oh and saying Team USA is about money when Argentina was just saved by Carlos Delfino ... a guy who just signed in Nowhere, Russia solely for the money. Not to mention Scola, who complained about money for half a decade before coming to the NBA.
Argentina doesn't have innocence any longer. They are as Americanized as the Americans.
you take pride in scola throwing a fit about money and having to work on his rebounding :lol:lolQuote:

Go Lebron.
Go Tayshaun.

Its on.
ps Paging Whotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. Did ArgSpursFan kidnap him?
I hope Manu scores about 30.
I also hope the USA wins going away and that Coach K and Jerry Coangelo get lost in Beijing somewhere and miss their plane ride home.
Argies going homers and yanquees going cocky......i can't belive you all seem so classy when spurs play. Shame on you! You are taking away the good part of sports that's enjoying it and being a good winner/loser
If Manu guards Kobe half as well as he does when he's with the Spurs Kobe will only drop 40 on Team Visa.

USA is going to destroy Argentina. i'm so happy the USA is crushing people by over 30 ppg...just lends credence to my previous statements that the world hasn't really caught up all that much. USA basketball struggles were a product of our own issues with the team. maybe those idiots will shut up now. next 2 games won't even be close...
I'm going for Argentina. Fuck the US team.
