I just caught up on this thread.
Props to both Gino and Tony- seems like both are doing us proud.![]()
I want to see first if TD is moving to Center
If in this season TD will play more as Center, Next year we must to try so sign Scola
I saw Scola, and Scola vs IRK, and IRK probably is a only a little better
In this tournament Scola consistently scores from 15-18 feet in front of the Rim
In the TAU Scola is the first option and the rivals teams adjusts the defense in him, but in Argentina if you adjust on Scola, Manu and Nocioni are going to destroy you
The same thing can happen in SAS, Scola with only one defender, and not the best, because the Best is on Duncan, Scola can score more than 10 Points in every game
yesteray in the 1st Q, Manu and Nocioni were on Fire, Manu scores 12 Points and only returned in the 3rd

FRA - Turiaf to the rescue as France beat Croatia at the end
ATHENS (FIBA World Championship) - Ronny Turiaf scored France's last eight points to lift Les Bleus to a 76-69 victory over a determined Croatia on Tuesday.
Roko-Leni Ukic's drive and basket with four minutes remaining tied the game at 66-66, and Claude Bergeaud called former Gonzaga great Turiaf's number and he clinched victory.
Turiaf finished with 12 points and four rebounds, and possibly sealed a place in the French team for the FIBA World Championship in the process.
The 6ft 9in power forward played just over 12 minutes but made the most of his chance, sinking all five of his shots from the field and making two of three free throws.
Tony Parker and Johan Petro each had 13 points while French captain Boris Diaw poured in 10.
Mario Kasun and Marko Banic scored 13 each for Croatia while Ukic weighed in with nine.
France play Greece on Wednesday night in a rematch of last year's EuroBasket semi-final.
Hola!
For those of you who have the spanish programing on direct tv cable, i just heared that TyC sports (torneos y competencias) channel got the rights to transmit the Argentina games.

What does the TBD mean?
To Be Determined
GER - Nowitzki names Team USA as favourites
NUREMBERG (FIBA World Championship) - Germany superstar Dirk Nowitzki has labelled the United States "the team to beat" in the forthcoming FIBA World Championship in Japan.
The versatile 7ft Dallas Mavericks forward feels USA’s strength in depth is their best asset, and backs them to cope even with the absence of Kobe Bryant from their squad.
"The Americans are the favourites," said Nowitzki following Germany’s 95-75 win over Canada in a warm-up game on Sunday. "They are really stacked. The only guy they don't have is Kobe.
"But they still have Dwyane Wade and LeBron (James) and plenty of other guys.
"After them, everything is open. Spain and Pau Gasol will be really strong. But the field is very open and everybody can beat everybody. But I think the Americans are the team to beat."
Nowitzki praised Team USA's coaches for bringing in role players to go with their superstars.
"They’ve found a really good mix," he said, However, he believes Bryant, who is sidelined with a knee injury, will be a big loss to the tournament.
"It would have been a great show for basketball if Kobe could have come along," he said. "But they (the Americans) still have a lot of great and talented players for the world to watch."
There's a shocker...the USA is the team to beat. No , Dirk.![]()
They're the team to beat every time...it's just a matter if they care enough to win the le.
