Exactly But the play by play was wrong. PR timeout was with 2 sec. left. And then the attempt by Rick Apodaca
Dude, you're contradicting yourself. You said Scola's game-winning shot was made at 1.4 seconds. and then you said Puerto Rico's timeout was with 2 seconds left after which Rick Apodaca missed his 3-pointer.
pryuen has latin american ties Segun el periodico Clarin X, Luis y Carlos van a escribir su propio blog,documentando la seleccion en las vegas. Va estar interesante. http://www.clarin.com/diario/2007/08/20/deportes/d-02501.htm
Is Scola really dirty? I ddin't see anything particularly dirty. Everyone's a little rough in competitive sports....how is Scola any different from the ordinary? What specifically is he doing that would make you say he's dirty?
Outside from some flopping and complaining to the refs a bit more than I would like... his on-court behaviour is very good.
article link Sheridan: Argentina favored in Group A of Tournament of America Chris Sheridan, ESPN.com Tournament of America: Group A | Group B ARGENTINA Scola The current Olympic champs come into the tournament in an akward position from a talent standpoint. Four of their regular starters (Manu Ginobili, Andres Nocioni, Fabricio Oberto and Juan "Pepe" Sanchez), and two other top players (Walter Herrmann and Ruben Wolkowyski) won't participate. This puts the pressure on Luis Scola and Pablo Prigioni to perform extremely well. Nonetheless, the team coached by Sergio Hernandez can count on other lesser-known names who can play competitively at the top level. Paolo Quinteros, Matias Sandes, Federico Kammerichs, Diego Logrippo, Roman Gonzalez and Leo Gutierrez should all shine on a team that knows how to defend and attack, as well as follow instructions and respect a game plan. Argentina is the heavy favorite to win this group and they should be fighting Brazil and USA for one of the two berths in the 2008 Olympic Games.
The problem he is picking up street talk thinking it's the the way we speak in all of America. His english was quite reasonable with out all the jargon and street vocabulary.

He deserves it.... if you want the gory details, you can visit YMM and see almost any thread, and you'll realize why people hate him over there.
