Day 3: Group B

[TalkBasket]

Germany vs. Spain

Angola vs. China

USA vs. Greece



Spain and China should win their games. Though Germany and Angola will probably won't be defeated easily.



Well here it is, long waited meeting USA - Greece. There are many opinions wether Greece will play their 100% in this game or if they save that for the future. Even though Greece could win against 2nd placed team in Group A which will probably be Argentina, I don't think they will be happy with two losses in 3 games. Greece, as any other team that plays against US, must control game tempo. They are certainly capable of doing that. It could be a classic if USA don't get big lead early in the game.

USA-Greece will be a good game.



Carmelo Anthony said it was a statement game and that they've been waiting for 2 years.

Germany vs Spain

Many misses especially by Spain with Garbajosa also shooting a 3-pointer from downtown just because. They look a bit out of focus. Somewhat ugly game so far, many misses, both teams just look uncoordinated.

He should learn with Jagla <!-- s -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/biggrin.gif[/img]<!-- s --> Wow what a shot!

It's over for the Germans, poor game right from the start. Dirk was way off tonight, it just wasn't him on court. Spain didn't play that good, if they had played against a stronger team, the result would be completely different I'm sure. Congrats Spain for the win.

Usa beat greece by over 20.



That run we made in the second quarter sealed the game, and the US outscored them in every quarter.
