I am rooting for Spain now, since I am a fan of Calderon and Jorge.

[Pero]

Not that it mattered, but Germany beat Croatia.

[Slomo]

Lithuania takes Bronze!

Lithuania 78 : 69 Greece

[Pero]

I guess we find out soon.

[Kamnik]

Damn.... 2 teams i dont like in finals. Cant root for anyone...

I liked Greeks and Lithuanians.

[sendman]

That Russian team is on the mission! They are lightning fast, athletic, good shooters, with smothering defense. Simply they are better then the French team in every single aspect of the game. But don't take my word for it. Watch the game and see for yourself. Then you can praise me latter.
Just to make things clear. I like French team better, and I would like to see you win. But it’s not going to happen.

YOU CAN PRAISE ME NOW!

Wow Stunning victory from Russia !!!
Congrats to AK47 he was huge for Russia...

[ploto]

Unbelievable end of championship game-- Russia wins by 1.

This has been the most amazing basketball tournament I have possibly ever seen!

[Pero]

Our Slavic brothers won!

[ploto]

MVP of Eurobasket-- Andre Kirilenko

[ploto]

So nice-- the commentator said that the 2 who were unfortunate not to make the All- tournament team were Khryapa and Rasho.

[Kamnik]

I watched the game over the internet with russian comentators.... he used such funny words and sounds i had to laugh my way through most of the game!

Great game, great tournament and i love the fact Spain didnt win it! I never like favourites. (except Spurs that is)

[Hemotivo]

Russia is not all that. They went from under-rated to over-rated fast. I think French have 50-50 chance of beating them.

[Pero]

Now I'm with Russia and Kirilenko for MVP. Hopefully I didn't just jinx them.

I guess I didn't. Well that's something at least.

[Pero]

Well they barely overcame France.,

[sendman]

Well they barely overcame France.,

Pero, you are starting to sound stupid.
Spain lost to Croatia, so what?
We led against Greeks by 16...5 to go, so what?
Slovenia has 6-3 win loss record and is 7th,
Croatia has 3-6 record and is 6th, SO WHAT?

Bodies are counted at the end. Russia won, and Frenchies are 8tht.

[Hemotivo]

PRICELESS

[Pero]

And I'm not disputing that. But the way you made it sound was like France doesn't have a chance and that Russia will blow them out, which didn't happen. It's true though, it doesn't matter.

[Pero]

What did Kirilenko average in the tournament?

[loveThe23]

Funny stuff. Yesterday Spanish surprisingly won European championship in volleyball in Moscow against Russia. And then Russians won euro le in basketball in Madrid against Spain.
