I thought only Americans could be such bad losers, but apparantly our lack of sportsmanship spread right along with basketball. There's nothing wrong with calling a timeout, it's just a time out. Maybe he wanted to get some players in who hadn't played much, you have no idea because your coach went ballisic over nothing.

We don't have cojones? Well at least we have more than one player good enough to play in the best league in the world. We'll also very soon have a medal; where's yours?

Only with that player we've got more Basket players in the best league in the world than you soccer players in the best league in the world.

Spain population: 40 million
EEUU population: 290 million


Your coach is very smart, it was amazing how they managed the last 30 seconds . Who knows, what would happen without that timeout? what a brilliant move. Pure class.

Well, the best league in the world isn't La Liga or Serie A, it's the Barclaycard Premiership. And unfortunately for your great arguement there's a couple guys known as Tim Howard, Claudio Reyna, and Brad Friedel. And what do you know, Howard and Friedel are really damn good at their positions, in fact they both might be considered top ten at their positions worldwide.

No matter what you think, La Liga has the best coefficient in the last years.

Howard and Friedel top ten... well...

should I laugh?

Changing the subject: sign of a beaten man

that's all i have to say.

Unfortunately the best league is serie A

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Well, it's probably a draw between Italy, England, and Spain, but everyone has their preference. Every now and then someone comes along as says the Bundesliga is the best, but we all know they must be on either some really good, or really bad crack.

Highland league is the finest league on earth

Bringing up soccer in a thread on basketball? Just admit you're coach is an ass. USA finally played a good game. Marbury's the sh*t!

i missed the game. What exactly happened with the timeouts and pissed of coaches? i is confused.

 

[SRB]

i was working unfortunately, but from what it looks like in the box score, marbury finally found his shot. i'm still not sold. you don't play horrible the whole tournament, drop 30 in one game and all of a sudden you should be playing 40 minutes. good win, congradulations on the game, i can't comment much because i heaven't seen it but i guess we'll see how it all unfolds.

Apparently Brown requested a time out while spain were still in the game, USA got a bigger lead and the TO was finally given. The spanish coach saw it as Brown attempting to embarrass him or something.

That timeout rule is stupid as hell, when i call a timeout i want it now, not tuesday.

ARGENTINA !!! ARGENTINA !!! ARGENTINA !!! ARGENTINA !!!

It'll be a tough game tomorrow.

With the way the US played against Spain they'll be definate favorites.

We will need some Magic

 

[Caponedawg]

lol the refs favor the us? Hell I think it's a rule that Tim Duncan automatically gets two fouls before the game starts.

 

[Vagegast]

So what place is Spain now playing for? Seventh or something?
