Should be a great game. Argentina is facing tough times right now...I think (and hope, for Splitters sake) that Brazil takes it.
John Schuhmann @johnschuhmann Wow. We get Argentina-Brazil in 1st knockout round for 3rd straight international tournament (10, 12 & 14). Produced 2 great games already.

Scola, 40 pts, 20reb, 10 steals, 5 blocks because he's the Brazil NT kriptonite.
Splitter is going to punk Scola. #bookit
Brazil has Splitter, Varejao and Nene to try to stop Scola. Saddly they are not enough. Scola will score 40/15/8/5 anyway.
In 2010 Brazil almost won and its backup bigmen were J.P Baptista and Murilo. With Nene and Hettsheimer the team got an huge upgrade.
In 2010 Argentina had Ginobili, Delfino and Oberto. Now it doesn't. In 2012 only Oberto wasnt in London.
Brazil is supposed to win. But you never knows.
This is the time Brazil finally gets us, tbh.
Brazil is the better team...
I'm already ready for the Scola 35 pts and 12031-239-12939120390239'2193'1 3 pointers from Gutierrez
RIP Brazil independence day
damage control
Argentina is favorite tbh
Hope Argentina wins, brazil.
Even with washed up veterans Argentina should take it.
Uh I forgot there's Barbosa Westibricking or TonyParking...
I hope Argentina wins, but is unlikely, all bets favor Brasil.
They have the best frontcourt, the best team overall, are not playing the players out of their positions as Argentina is and the strategy to beat Argentina has become clear in this tournament. Crash the offensive board and clog the paint on defense.
We could get a fluke win because Brasil fears us a lot, but other than Brasil players chickening out i donīt see a scenario where Nocioni can control Brasil tandem of Splitter-Varejao successfully.
It was a nice run for Argentina but this team needs size desperately and players that can attack the paint.

Brazil's lack of outside shooting again showing in this game. Even if Argentina is old as dirt they can still hit those threes.
ARG gotta be up 15 with some fluky shooting by the end of the 3rd or Brazil has this, tbh
You know your team is ed up when Barbosa is the highest scorer.
lol Scrubla can't even make freebies
better team taking over.... ARG just chucking up 3s...
