You don't get trolled if you respond with a better troll comment, tbh.like I don't know
But that's the thing, the talent and depth that France has allowed them to overcome so-so games from Parker, Diaw and Batum. In Argentina, if the top dogs don't perform they're ed.lol I was wrong. But this one game sampling was bad tbh. Scola was horrible in the first half, played better in the 2nd. Delfino was 100% nonexistent. Delfino is capable of having a big impact, he has played some good games in international basketball before, but he sucked. Argentina played pretty poorly.
The France team is definitely more well rounded, Del Colo, Batum, Gelabale, Seraphin all helped out for this win. Manu didn't have much help at all. There is just a huge drop off in Argentina's bench, something I didn't factor as much.
I can't believe the US only beat this ty, ty team by 6 points
But he hasn't. That was Duncan's and Manu's team... he's lucky he could coattail to 3 ships and a Finals MVP with them, tbh...
Now, last year he was definitely handed the keys to the team, made the #1 option, and well, we know how that ended... that's why I'm saying, I can't wait until he delivers with the Spurs too
He's also been blessed with a broken bottle on his eye while ing around in a club... Thankfully, some other players have been more fortunate
jag doin' work tbh
His back must be hurtin' from hauling Ibaka and Perkins to the Finals, tbh...
Yeah, he had a chance to really prove something tonight. Especially considering how out of shape Tony is due to his eye injury. Tony easily proved he has the most toughness, heart and compe iveness of any player on the floor today. He didn't need two good eyes, or his usual, exceptional conditioning.
The x-factor for France is Seraphin. That kid is scary athletic. If he can push Turiaf for minutes and the rest of the French team plays up to their potential, they'll be a tough out.
As for Argentina, I don't understand how Oberto isn't playing. I'm guessing the heart issue ... but, man, roll him out there in a wheel chair and he's their best center by far. You just don't give yourself a chance when your bigs are Scola, Nocioni and some horrendous scrubs.
Is Wolkowyski still alive?
Oberto was out because of "personal problems"... apparently he was going through a traumatic divorce, although details are sketchy at best.
Gutierrez isn't bad... the whole team had a poor game today except maybe Manu...
Comments like these make it seem like you're emotional or angry about something. I won't press the issue any further. I only meant to discuss facts and do some postgame analysis with fellow Spurs fans. I apologize for saying true things that made you emotional.But he hasn't. That was Duncan's and Manu's team... he's lucky he could coattail to 3 ships and a Finals MVP with them, tbh...

Argentina didn't play that bad tbh. They were just flukey awful from three, that was basically the difference between the Lithuania game and this one.
Argentina needed a better game from Delfino to match up the production of role players like Parker... he just had a bad game... it happens...
i haven't seen ARG play in a long time. It's still the same players for years. Is the next generation that bad?

Your emotions after the French win got the best of you... I understand, no need to apologize...
Don't get me wrong, Tony has been a great role player for what the Spurs need at that position...
What happened to Herrmann as well?
No, TP is that good.
What next generation?
Why can only _Jag have fun?
Bigger question, what did you guys think about De Colo?
I was simply stating facts when you tried to engage me with an obviously emotional post about coattail riding, which included classless, tasteless remarks about Tony's near career-ending injury.

Ginobili said it was "awkward" early because he found himself wishing Parker's shots would miss. Parker: "I wasn't wishing his would miss."
Buck Harvey @Buck_SA
Parker on playing against @manuginobili for the first time ever: "It was special. And kind of weird."
Buck Harvey @Buck_SA
Ginobili said he tried to make it another game. "But after 800 games together, this was something different."
