    He's such a pathetically soft player. He was kicking the ball out when had a guard on him right under the rim at the end of the game.

    I just finished watching Senegal-Croatia.
    Dieng was totally abusing Tomic and Andric, it wasn't even funny.

    Tomic finished with 14 and 9, and his impact on the game was 0...
    Saric was the best player today, by a long margin.

    Well I am biased against him since 2009-2010 season when Real signed him mid season and he took D.Lavrinovic place pretty much when Real was playing amazingly well and D.Lavrinovic had couple weekly MVP's that season for real in Euroleague until that point.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurolea...Season_Group_D
    (Game 1 and game 2)
    After signing real started sucking that season, but for some reason Tomic was played more than Darjus.

    I think Tomic is one of the most overrated players in euroleague, he got some skills offensively, but as you mentioned soft as hell and also liability on defense despite his height.

    I would recommend Gabepizza. He trolls EL for the fun of it, but he actually is one of the most Knowledgeable Americans on fiba ball in the forum.

    Yeah I've read some gabepizza's posts and when he's not fighting with EL he actually posts worthwhile reads regarding international basketball.

    http://www.mitele.es/directo/mundobasket-2014/

    all games played online there live, Spanish commentary. Totally inside the realm of the law too.

    PR vs Greece soon.

    Yes, I saw most of it. The Philippines have been a story here in this tournament. They have given some superior teams all they can handle.

    They have very quick guards, and many of their players have good handles and very flexible. Their weakness: too undersized.

    They have a chance though going up against PR and Senegal coming up. If they can win both, can they get through?

    Here's a good article by ESPN's Marc Stein on what Ataman did to cramp the US style. Did he find Kryptonite that other teams may imitate?

    Spain vs Brazil should be the best game in group stages

    If Greece wins, Spain will tank because they're scared of Greece.

    That's the discussion going on in the actual thread (albeit only EL)
