China vs. Greece (Yao vs. VSpan) - who do you pick?

What are some ways to watch this game live online?

PPLive, PPstream, TVU....which one would be the best. I hear people saying that PPlive and PPstream don't work anymore, can anyone confirm this?

 

PPLive doesn't work, but the others (PPstream, TVAnts, TVUNetworks, TVKoo) all work. I've used PPstream to watch all of the WC games; in fact that's the only one I can get to work on the cheap DSL I have at home. The others lag too much, only PPstream gives me acceptable quality.

 

man yao's leg is as big as falsone's upper body!

 

They just changed again. It is scheduled to 6:30am EST

 

huh

I can't find nothing about the chi-gre game on espn2

will it be live?

what time EST? its not showing on their program guide

 

They just put the usa/australia game up on the digital cable guide a couple of hrs ago...

 

WTF?! How can they change the time like 5 times?

where does it say it is 6 30 am est

 

From Sina, it is 7pm Beijing time (7am EST). Fiba.com seems to be down from China.

To clarify, 7pm Beijing time is 7am EDT.

 

Well.....they kept changing the schedule that NO ONE knows for sure whether there will be live broadcast.

The CCTV5's live broadcast at 19:30pm is Formual 1 Grand Prix (Turkey). And there is a slot for World Championship around 22:00pm.

But WHO CARES ???

I am now in Hong Kong for the week-end, and I can't watch CCTV5 anyway.

But I just learnt that Hong Kong Cable TV Channel 62 will live broadcast China versus Greece at 19:00pm !!!

HURRAY !!!

 

My download of the TVU player is not working now, but I went to www.viidoo.com and the channels come in good.

 

ESPN2 for the China game? where is the information? ESPN2 has not shown any basketball games during this weekend even if it says it is the game time.

 

NBA Tv says it is Sunday 8:00 AM on NBA TV.

 

This should be right. If it is on the NBA TV, it will not be on ESPN2.

 

china is big underdog this time 1 pays 8 on betfair.

Yao Ming was asked

1. What does he thinks about the current China team?
2. What does he thinks of the Greek team?
3. Will he be afraid of the Greek's centre, the 2.10M Lazaros Papadopoulos and the 2.06M Baby Shaq, Sofoklis Schortsianitis?
4. What does he think about China's chance?

Yao Ming's answers:

1. He thought the biggest problem of China is too many turnovers. Once under tight one-on-one or zone defense, his team mates will turnover. If they can solve that problem, he thinks China will win this game.
   
2. He thought the Greek team is a great team, with great interior players.
   
3. He rebuked the question by saying: "(They could be strong, but) could they be stronger than Shaquille O'Neal?"
   
4. He said: "I only want to say one thing, the chance is within our our hands/grasp."

 

Wow that's s very good odd. Too bad where I'm at now it is illegal to bet online. Otherwise......

True China is the underdog, but certainly not a 1:8 underdog.

 

well you caught a good deal. I only had 7 to 1 on china.
