    Scola is playing at MVP level. He and Argentina will own IMO.

    I expect Scola to score more pts that game, just because of how Argentina uses Scola compared to how Brazil uses Splitter

    Scola is a great FIBA player. He should do well unless he chokes like he always did in Europe.

    And I damn hope Argentina will loose. While I like most of their player, I have an illogical pure hate for Prigioni. I can't root for a team where he plays.Without him, I would have root for Argentina.

    Hopefully Splitter guards Scola. Luis hasn't really had a 7 foot defender on him at Splitter's level. And Scola is a good, tough defender that will test Splitter as well. Can't wait for that game.
    They were teammates and are best friends. I am sure both are very familiar with guarding each other. awesome matchup

    There's also the Ruben Magnano angle. Argentina's coach from 2004 coaching against his nation's team.

    i would like argentina to win the game. mostly b/c the winner may have to play 2-3 more games for either 5th spot, 3rd spot or the championship. i prefer splitter to have an extra week of break before reporting to training camp. we already saw him do well vs. usa

    We need Tiago back asap. Plus, Spurs need to fly under the radar...

    What time?
    Kristic guarded him today and he scored 32.

    The game will be close but Barbosa will wind up shooting and missing fade away 3's, and bricking wide open shots as always, Argentina will win.

    Not looking so good for Splitter 3 years ago. Nene got hurt and Varejao never played. Probably a good idea to put Varejao on Scola.

    Seriously, a box score from 3 yrs ago...I have no doubt scola will score more pts than Tiago and I am pretty sure argentina will also win the game. But a box score from 3 yrs ago, seriously...

    I think Brazil will win. Argentina has been basically playing at times very lazy and the coaching has been inexistent. They play to the compe ion's level, like to get in some hole and then scrap back. Happened with Serbia today and they just couldn't crawl out of it.

    They're a very talented team, even more talented than Brazil, I believe. But Prigioni is not Sanchez, and more importantly Hernandez is a pretty subpar coach. Unless Scola and Delfino both go off or Brazil has an off night, I think Brazil will move on, and it might be a good wakeup call for Argentina. You can't half-ass it against good teams.

    Will the Tuesday game be televised? What time / channel will it be?

    That should be a good matchup and game to watch.
