Scola fouled out is terible news for Argentina, but you have to love their competitiveness.

You say? Offensive rebound with 2s to close the game and then clutch FTs.

Sad... we lost, but we could have won it. We should have made a foul when it was 85-82 in the regular time.

Great effort by Argentina all through OT without Scola. Enhorabuena.

And then Spain has no chance but to win against Lithuania tonight (while mirroring last Euro´s final).

ARG vs Bra was a great game.

Brasil could have won it but it was close, great win for us, really need the W to play more relaxed against Spain.

Campazzo its a beast and the NBA teams need to look he is way better than Lin the startin PG for the Nets, just saying.

Sorry if my english its not good

wow, Spain won by 50! That's insane! I wish I had a way to watch these games. The streaming sites I've tried to use in the past are blocked. Does anyone know of a site where I can watch the games?

If you're in USA, I can't help you, but if you're in Europe, send me a private and I will send you some great links.

Don't know why...no problem, I will send you one later before the day 9 starts hopefully. If not, I will put the links here but I don't know if its allowed on this forum.
