I believe that it is the top 4 teams in each round that make the quarter finals. Then it is single elimination after that
How do they work? Outside of the first one, which is being one of the top 3 of your group, I have no clue. Is the second round single elimination?

Preliminary Round, 12 Teams - August 10-18
Format: Each team plays every team in their group once. The top four finishers in each group advance to the Quarter Final Round.
Quarter Finals Round, 8 Teams - August 20
Format: Eight teams are seeded based on preliminary round finishes. Single elimination matchups take place between A1-B4, B1-A4, A2-B3 and B2-A3.
Semi-Finals Round, 4 Teams - August 22
Format: Winner of A1-B4 faces winner of B2-A3; winner of A2-B3 faces winner of B1-A4. The two victorious squads advance to Gold Medal game.
Finals Round, 4 Teams - August 24
Format: Two winners in Semi-Finals round compete for the Gold Medal, while the two losers compete in the Bronze Medal game.
Holy crap. So it's possible that Arg's 6th game could be against the US. , I think they'll need more time to gell(and change the lineup so Manu is PG and Delfino is SG).
rounds of drinks?
Your a tool, but I am glad you are a member of SpursTalk
But exactly what I said is true. The 4 best teams in each group advance, then it is single elimination.

As long as we are making corrections on people's posts, I believe that you meant OPINION, not option.
It's a 7 game series in the first round, semi's, conference finals, then finals.![]()
