At least the USA are going to play the only team that is not scared of them.
Here we go for the biggest upset.
That's what they are
They're also quite talented tho, and have a big big heart, sadly it won't be enough probably

Can someone let me know why Lithuania ends up in front of Argentina in the qualification having worse goal average and being a 3 way tie?
Cause what counts is the points you've gained against the teams you're tied with
Lithuania beat both Arg and Spain and lost against Croatia, it's the other way round for Arg
What, the teams tied are Croatia, Spain, Argentina and Lithuania.
Croatia is 2-1 (won against Spain and Lithania, lost to Arg) Goal average is +3
Spain is 2-1 (won against Lithuania and Argentina,lost to Cro) Goal average is +67
Argentina is 1-2 (woo against croatia, lost to Spain and Lithuania) goal average in these games is -19
Lithuania is 1-2 (won against Arg, lost to Spain and Croatia) goal average in these games -51
I donīt get "what rule" puts Lithuania over Argentina.
They beat Arg
But that is the tiebreaker for "single tie" not for 4 way tie. Do you have the "tiebreakers"?
I thought it was "results against tied teams" and then "score average".
I'm rooting for all the group A teams tbh.
No I think it's results against tied teams and then if you're still tied with a team what counts is what you did against said team
Can someone from please clarify with the rules? I thought it was that way but i cannot find the rules.
All 4 teams ended 3W-2L. First tie breaker is h2h between all of them, Spain and Croatia were 2-1 whereas Argentina and Lithuania 1-2. Then Croatia is above Spain because they won the match between each other and the same happens between Lithuania and Argentina.
Plz do it
Time to bring Manu back home. Unfortunately I don't see any way they win. It's a shame too with Manu retiring from Olympic basketball.
Argentina would've lost against any other team, tbh. Their old asses blew all four tires in 3 games
Outside of Garino and Ginobili, the rest of the argentinian players are horrid on one on one defense...so even if the US plays a somewhat poor offensive game, it wouldnt matter.
Even ginobili is too old at this stage. Can't see them winning.
Spurs have a gem in Garino........
This argie squad has no chance against the US. Stop acting like they do.![]()
I agree (but hope you're wrong)
Of course they don't, I'm just hoping for a miracle to happen![]()
Lange, he had cancer one year ago, 54 years![]()
he can console himself wiyh his big, fat 2004 olympic gold medal.
And only one lung.
Mission impossible for Argentina.
But, they half-assed that game vs Spain, so... yeah.
We were fighting for #1 spot, if we lost we would end up 4th.
Great games ahead of us. Can't wait.
