56-26 at the half... We suck!!! Our point guards are a joke, our coach is a joke. We can´t defend or rebound to save our lives.
Let me laugh... Gasol played as backup. Not much better than Scola? Tell L.A. Lakers. When Luis is capable of being an inside reference of a finalist team, we'll keep talking. And despite I'm spanish, I'm not a Pau Gasol fan (yes Marc-fan), believe me, but right now his level is closer to Yao's level than Scola's level. I'll say too that I prefer Yao.
What a idiotic performance by Argentina, Prigioni was pissed off by minute 5 and he played bad all game, we entered the game thinking more on Spain than in Lituania and it took argentina 2 quarters to be mentally focused. I hope this happens now and not then. By the way to the poster from Spain, i don´t think Pau defense even compares to Yao, offensively i don´t think he is much better than Scola, he plays in a more organized team and get a lot more shots, but in similar situations i don´t think he is a much better offensive player. He is indeed a better rebounder due to his size, and a better defender because Scola is a bad defender from my point of view, that´s why Wolkowisky has always been the starter in our NT.
First two things I saw: Raul Lopez rubbing his inner thigh. Luis Scola knocking Navarro out cold with a screen. Marc Gasol looking like a less girly version of his brother. Must have stolen Pau's food growing up.
Argentina really needs to focus on executing their free-throws better. Unless they like to lose in 1 point games.
If your talking about Ricky Rubio he is considered the best player not in the nba in the world... and right now he's only 16 or 17 6'4 180
Spain is really stacked. Jose Calderon Rudy Fernandez Ricky Rubio Pau Gasol Marc Gasol Juan Carlos Navarro Jorge Garbajosa(haven't seen him, is he playing?)
I hope the group asks prigioni to either focus on games or leave the spot for another PG, i don´t mind seeing Gianella, Montechia or Pepe Sanchez (good lord please make it happen) back at the PG spot, but this guy is making Artest look like a great team player.
his size is the difference...if luis had an extra 3 inches than we could say those two are equal...but gasol's long arms and long body makes him a better player
I have a dirty joke but really dont take it the wrong way... Im brazilian OK here it goes I warned you... How do you get an Uruguayan? Well its simple really, You get a beaker, add some Spanish blood, add some German blood, add some Italian blood, add some native Indian blood, and add a little bit of ****, but not too much ****, or you will get and Argentine
