    Turkey getting blown out.

    Edit: Italy just on fire from the 3 point line. As we learned in the record-setting game vs. GSW, a team tends to blow its opponent out when you get hot behind the arc.

    I bet Omer Asik is thinking: "I miss the NBA so much. I miss having talented teammates."

    Asik is dominating the smaller Italians now.

    Italia hitting big shots, though.

    Well, this got out of hand pretty quick. Asik looked pretty good in the few minutes I saw. Not a whole lot of help from his team, though.

    Will be pretty tough for Turkey to make it out of the group stage now. Have to win out now and hope Finland loses their final 3 games (vs. ITA, RUS & GRE).

    Nice finish to regulation in GER vs. BEL. Overtime.

    Pretty good today. 2/2FG, 1/1 FT, 2 off rebounds and not bad defense in 7:34 minutes of play. Half-time now.

    It is beyond me that they are playing Kleiza at all, much less the minutes he is pulling down.

    Bo has had some nice moments, but not impressed with his effort today. Not sure if he's battling an injury or what. Seems to be picking his spots on offense. Harden-y on D. Too bad for MKD. Lithuania is very much beatable.

    ESP-SLO on split screen now. 1 point game with 3:15 to go. Llull vs. Zoran.

    Edit: Slovenia wins! Goran excellent down the stretch.

    ... Macedonia getting screwed again.

    Slovenia really nice down the stretch, deserved the win.

    PS: That's how a crowd is supposed to sound, you US guys have to catch up with us. :cool:
