    what a shock, half the US team didn't even shake hands when it was over, they just left. Classy.
    Why is this a shock? It happened before...

    Before this game, LeBron was shooting 59% from the floor -- highest on the team. And Wade was shooting 54% -- higher than Carmelo. So I don't think you can knock LeBron and Wade's shooting.

    SHOOTING

    not layups or dunks


    i didnt mean fg%

    I think the U.S. did a pretty decent job as a team. They were just rough. None of the players jacked up shots and no one played selfishly. They just kinda reverted back to old ways at times, like Wade played like he did for the Miami Heat at times.

    Today though, was an exception. They flat out stunk and didn't look like they knew what the they were doing!!

    Greece is looked down upon and some don't even consider it to be a true European country.

    Now that they beat the US the Euro posters are pretending they are all one big happy continent.

    I am not pretending. I am a fan of our country SLO, and will always be, but as i live i Europe i rather see that Europe team win than some non Europe.

    But what i could see from that game is that Usa have no game, they are just happy if they dunk the ball and scream around

    Again, LeBron didn't chuck up a lot of jumpshots throughout the tournament.

    Wade, yes, he shouldn't have been shooting from 3.

    another thing..... i dont know about other Euro posters but whenever (95% of the time) a Euro team plays an non-Euro team i always cheer for the Euros

    even against Argentina who is one of my favourite teams

    Why would they when all of Greece's team were acting like they won the gold medal. Looking like a bunch of classless ass holes dancing and .

    Anyways, good game. Congrats to Greece. What I don`t understand is how come the US didn`t play agressive defense? Were they not mentaly tough enough to do it after the Greeks started leading?

    BTW, Tlong, where art thou?

    ok maybe i generalized too much

    it was Wade much more than James




    anyways... my final opinion: your head coach was a joke in terms of tactics and subbing and other game decisions

    maybe he could get them play with heart and put in effort but he isnt a match for Greek or many other coaches

    he won games with pure depth, talent and athleticism

    Oh I agree with that. I'm not a Coach K fan to begin with, but he really sucked today.

    He was subbing like a madman throughout the 4th quarter as if he had no game plan whatsoever to get back in. He was horrible.

    See, that's because they played with heart so they're going to show some emotion, something Team USA needed today.

    Spanoulis as I said like a month ago will revitalize Houston's backcourt.
    It's unfortunate that Fotsis tried his luck with the Grizzlies.
    Big Sofo will be a good role player for the Clips in the future.
    Diamantidis and Papaloukas can play in the NBA.
    Greek players have Bodiroga's mentality, tax free money-big fish in a small lake.

    I think the team U.S.A needs an european coach for the difference between fiba and Nba. Ettore Messina is the greatest european coach

    It was more less the US being out coached, and a whole lot of mismatches through the pick n roll than defense intensity.

    What happens now we add Kobe and hope to get better? Without a doubt we will be better but USA really needs to play as a team, I dont care how long a time they didnt have they are nba players and get paid millions of dollars to PLAY BASKETBALL, they are the best in the world and cannot come together on offense nor defense.
