You are a freaking idiot. Greece beat the A Team of USA. The only country to do so since Colangelo era.

Tiago Splitter never played in Greece you idiot.

That was barely a B team, sorry to break it to you. It was composed of the kids from the 03 and 04 draft. They didn't have Amare for PF, Billups/AI for PG, Kobe for SG and D12 was still a softie for a center. There wasn't any leadership to make all the kiddies play right.

B team at best.

You can mock the Greek economy all you want,but when it comes to history please.Almost all scientific words you use are of Greek origin,many of the maths,physics people know now,they owe it to Greek scientists.

You owe DEMOCRACY to Greece.Do you understand that?

When Greeks where building the parthenon,a structure that has survived for 2.5 thousand years,native americans were eating each other.

Europe owes us it's freedom,it's iden y.It was Greece alone that stopped king Xerxes from conquering the whole Europe,it was Greece that stopped Germany in WWII,so they had to face the Russian winter and lose the war.

We have always done too much with too little,and although we suck now,we have a great history to be proud of,and that won't change no matter what some idiots say on a basketball forum.

Now please,let's continue with the basketball talk.

It was an A team idiot. If that was a B team than USA beat the C team of Greece in 2008.

Greece beat an incomplete team with inexperienced kiddies. Greece can put all the "talent(lol)" they have in their team but they are still just overrated goat ers with the talent of an NBA D-league team.

Go pray to Zeus that Spain doesn't on you

For example, we can thank Greece for this

1. greek 3034 up, 1042 down

Anal sex. Used mostly as a euphemism in pros ution circles.

This is Spain's tournament to lose. With Ibaka playing for them as well, this is arguably their best and deepest team ever.

Lithuania should give them a good run, but ultimately finish second. After that, as it usually is in Eurobaskets, it's an open race. Any team getting on a good roll can medal.
