El Mamerro Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Haha, Hellas, that's awesome. West coasters should get a kick out of that. I'm somewhat following this whenever I can catch a game, PR's been doing pretty good. Only got beat by 11 points by the US, which is not bad I guess.

RumPuncher Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 canada doesn't do 'international competions of sport' unless it's the olympics, or hockey. and we only have one good basketball player, but he's really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transparent Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 ya i went to see PR play us in vegas it was iight.....they are saying we arent even close to being considered the favorites to win this thing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 Well, truth be told the US has the best basketball hands down. At the same time your players are always acting like little spoiled bitches in all world cups (see:olympics 2004) that i doubt you'll take it in the end, add the dopefest you seem to be involved in and shit gets nastier.

transparent Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 true...the dopefest is tearing this country apart!!!!!!!.......but it also makes us unnaturally large and gives us the ability to ride bicycles way faster than anyone else throughout the french countryside....and im sure its fun while it lasts...

eye for an eye Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 i doubt nba players dope themselves up esecially not from this team. they're all really young. only basketball player that was definitely on the juice was alonzo mourning.

transparent Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 i thought it was a pretty valid one.... if you were talking about the US team then no we didnt have a very good team...we lost to fucking GREECE in BASKETBALL....who did we beat??? dirk and 4 other guys from the washington senators??? it wasnt a very good showing for the stars and stripes...if youre talking about greece hey i tip my hat to you somewhere along the line players from the US stopped caring about how to SHOOT the ball and started concentrating on how to duplicate the EAST BAY FUNK DUNK from the 96 dunk competition...its a sad state of affairs.....

Vanity Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 i jsut learned from my cousin that in other cities (milwaukee) they have something called 'sacking' in which you grab eachother's balls through out the night... please tell me this is just a milwaukee thing, cause i know we dont have it here.

Yeah, i'm from Greece and while there's no doubt that the NBA is simply the best thing in basketball the same thing doesnt count for your Dreamteam (check the 2004 olympics for the most recent disgrace on an international level). You're also kinda ignorant on basketball outside the US as it seems. The very same Greek team that will be playing on the final this sunday won the Eurobasket last year, so you were playing against Europe's champions, not exactly dirk and 4 other guys. In any way, losing sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Right Said Fred Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 american basketball sucks nowadays all the best players in the nba dont even want to play in the olympics and in this fiba shit thats why you homo greeks beat us if we had kobe, ben wallace, kevin garnett, etc. we would easily whoop greece and any other countries ass but instead we got all these rookies and shit playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanity Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 don't be a fucking idiot.... all the us palyers have huge fucking egos, so the 'stars' in the olympics cant even make a pass w/ out them thinking it admits their inferiority.

In any way, losing sucks you are right i am ignorant on basketball in other countries for the most part...other countries have a few guys that come in and are stars in the NBA but for the most part the best players in the NBA are born and raised in the US..if we entered the detroit pistons or the miami heat into this kind of a contest they wouldnt lose a game...the greek team and most other teams for that matter play together (in your euroleague) all year round while we throw a team together 2 weeks before the contest and almost win the whole thing...basketball in this country is a lot better than anywhere else in the world but as i said its getting way too much into a run and gun dunk competition on a nightly basis with everyone trying to get on sportscenter instead of caring about winning the game...granted this years team did play some pretty good defense and i think if we stick with the guys long enough they will be dominant with some time to mesh...

RumPuncher Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 ...but for the most part the best players in the NBA are born and raised in the US... ^ The definition of 'most valuable player' but yes, for 'the most part' they come from the US. I think that's because the scouts are lazy and would rather travel from college to college instead of from country to country. Yao ming being an exception.
