    Brazil is a great team. Sucks that they had to get eliminated so soon! I love South American sport fans...so passionate! It's like all their fans are Rocket Rowdies.

    Some people thought we overpaid for Scola. I thought we paid fair value. Now I am questioning myself whether he is a flat out STEAL.

    Some people thought Morey got burned letting the market set prices this summer.

    Morey 1, Free Market 0.

    For some reason, I want Argentina to win the Worlds and not the USA national team. I just love watching Scola play and want to watch him in BEAST mode for the rest of the tournament.

    The final would be tough for me too, I think I just might cheer on Argentina....

    Not sure yet....

    But I hope they both get there.

    other teams were going to overpay for him (nets) so we know what other teams think of him. i think he should get paid more b/c he does so much.

    scola FTW

    I'd cheer for Scola to score 50 but still go for the USA... unless a Scola half-court short at the buzzer wins it. I'd be happy with that, too.

    I am Brazilian, very sad by the result but happy to have Scola here for 5 more years

    and not draw conclusions about Splitter just for this game, this guy is really really good
    But Scola is a God

    USA and Argentina are on the same side of the bracket. They could meet in the semifinals, though.

    loved this post from the Splitter vs Scola thread spurstalk :grin:

    all they seem to be worried about is Splitter coming out healthy, doesn't sound like a tough guy

    +1 I want USA to win. I want Scola to demolish Love/Odumb/Chandler and the other fake PF we have on our team.

    Who is this Huertas guy? He has a pretty great line in the boxscore.
