BRAZIL LOOKS TO BE STRONG!

[ZEUS]

Agreed! I really would like them to beat Argentina and be the strongest in Latin America <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />



They are a massive country, and now recently nouveau riche, so the more they invest in their basketball program, the better the players they will produce over time <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

In my opinion, they'll have their chance only when Manu retires.

He's just too much. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />



Awesome player.

[ZEUS]

Manu's old now. Brazil should fight for it as of now!

I don't know man, in the playoffs you couldn't say he's old! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />

Brazil defeats Australia 75 to 71. Great game. Huertas, Barbosa, Nene are looking amazing!

Yeah I watched it online. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> I love women's volleyball. I watched USA women basketball vs Croatia. Very nice! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Brazil were strong. Barbosa,Nene and Huertas were playing good. Splitter did his work on defense but he needs to work on his shot selection. I wanted to see how Neto play, too bad that the coach didn't give him any playing time.



Huertas could play in the NBA. He's a good player and I really love his playing style, hopefully an NBA will try to get him to the NBA.

He's old, but that old man STILL has it! He too is one of the finest players of all time that richly deserves a spot in the hall of fame <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />:thup:<img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />:thup:<img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />:thup:

No question he's a future hall of famer. <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />

[Kenneth23]

Manu is definitely a future hall of famer! He still is a great player. If I was playing on a basketball team, I would love to have a guy like him as a teammate. He's a real competitor, a teamplayer, a role model



On Brazil: I can't wait to see them play against Russia. I think they have chance to win it but in the end Russia may be better than them

[Kenneth23]

Nice win of Brazil over Spain. They really deserved the win. They played good

I think the following game against Argentina will be an interesting game and a close one. I hate to see Brazil lose but I think that the experience of Argentina will have an impact on the game

Will Prgioni play though?

[/quote]



I don't know, so far there is no news on his status. A couple of days again they said that Prigioni was feeling better but I heard that he sat out the game against the USA so that he would be ready when the knock-out stage begins. We'll have to wait untill the beginning of the game.
