Manu showing a pulse... 5 point game now
Ginobili is a pretty good player.
Manu showing a pulse... 5 point game now
The injury of the Tunisia big is the turning point
ARG up 29-28 now
still no bench for ARG
BATUM-shakalaka!
40-40 at the half
Manu playing great so far.
Ginobili firing.
Fire in the hole!
ARG got that 3 point ball going now...
Best game for France of the summer yesterday with everybody getting in shape (not speaking about Diaw's weight tough) !
Too bad Flo Pietrus has apparently a broken nose.
After USA, Argentina and Lit, rest should be much easier. It is now France to loose the second spot but as I know quite a bit France, we are capable to loose the easiest game.
Florent Pietrus, qui n'a joué qu'une minute et trente-quatre secondes ce jeudi matin contre la Lituanie (82-74), souffre d'une fracture du nez. L'intérieur français a pris un coup de coude dans le visage mais sa blessure est «sans complication et ne remet pas en cause sa participation à la suite de la compé ion».
Confirmation that Flo Pietrus broke is nose but it's a simple fracture and he should be able to play the next games
Mills had 20 in Australia's win over China.
ARG up 19
they are playin' against who ?ARG up 19
Tunisia
Good win... the big point differential might help them in the tiebreaker
Solid win by Argentina!
Next game is probably the game of the day IMO.
Good win by FNT. It sucks for Florent Pietrus but it looks like he should be fine with a protective mask. They just need to win one of their last two games to finish 2nd of the group (providing USA beat Argentina). They should be able to win against Tunisia in 2 days and rest players for their last game against Nigeria.
If the logic is respected on the other group, the QF should be:
USA/Australia
France/Brazil
Argentina/Spain or Russia
Lithuania/Spain or Russia
This is assuming Russia beats Brazil today?
I vastly underestimated France.
Yep.
On the USA group, unless something crazy happen like Nigeria beating Argentina or Argentina beating USA, it will be: USA:1st, France:2nd, Argentina:3rd and Lithuania:4th.
On the Spain group, the winner of Australia/GB will be 4th. The first 3 seed will be Spain, Russia and Brazil. The 3 teams are tied for the moment and will start playing each other. I think Brazil is a step lower than Russia and Spain. Between Russia and Spain, I'm not sure who is better. Spain is stronger on the paper but they have injuries issues with Navarro and Marc Gasol and Russia has looked great this summer.
Yeah Splitter commanding that double team.
Brazil better but Splitter back in there before the lead grows too big.

Manu just said they're likely a lock to finish #3 on the group... agreeing with Bruno, basically
