    Thug is as thug does.

    Unfortunately, stupidity doesn't vary by color.

    I don't remember. But the game was over pretty much by the end of 3rd quarter. Yi Jianlian was on the bench in the 4th quarter and nobody were playing for real in the last quarter.

    by the way, the following is a 5 minutes clip of the second game Georgetown played in China. This is not the game with the big fight.

    In this game, they are playing with Liaoning. Number 5 of Liaoning is supposed to be the best young point guard of China. He is supposed to be the next superstar out of China. Unfortunately, he was kicked out of junior national team because of discipline reason (laziness and not following team rule). He has to be a cool dude, look at how many times he shakes his shoulder when he shoots free throw (in the 1:10 mark in the video).

    Here is the video:

    The reason they were fighting is that the Chinese team is a professional team and they work day and night on their game. They are conditioned well, they shoot 1000s of jumpers per day, they watch film, they listen to their coach and they still can't hang with a mediocre college team of AMERICANS who are rusty and not even in basketball condition. That turned to frustration and the Chinese attacked. It's like playing against your little brother and you just toy around with him, blocking his shot, etc.. until he gets pissed and tries to fight you.

    Your basis for this assertion is.....?

    Oh right, you don't need one to reinforce the stereotype of ignorant Americans. Glad to see you and GlenRice uphold the standards of our great nation in stride.

    If Birdie's crew from Above the Rim played that Chinese team, that team would lose and wouldn't dare fight them.

    Because the person who wrote that does not know nor understand FIBA rules and reffing. He was basing what should or should not be "fouls" on NCAA reffing. But the criteria is completely different.

    The person that wrote that was just talking about something he didn't know anything about - how fouls are and are not called in the FIBA game. At least, other than when Team USA or an NBA team is playing. In those cases, they have in recent years called the games very tight like in the USA (at least to the opponent of the American teams).

    I think at the 6-7 second mark, you can see the Georgetown player throwing a punch and missed, ref immediately blew whistle, and all the Chinese players went after that one guy and started the brawl.
