Group F, Day 4: Turkey-Spain

[Celtibero]

Last second against Slovenia...they don't call a clear travel

Last seconds against Turkey, they don't call the foul against Llull, and then they call a flagrant foul wich was not

Also, all the beating against the Gasol brothers, they never call it. Against other centers it would be clear fouls, but against Pau Gasol they RARELY call it.

Referees don't respect Spain, they don't respect our centers, all the pushing and beating , EVERY POSSESION

As much as i like Spain as a team, these excuses will get you nowhere. With the "quality" of this Spanish team it should never come to this close games... That's how good they are, but they are not playing very well on both ends of the court...

the traveling of Lorbek i give you. but of course none of the rest. just because you were overprotected for many years doesn't mean that when the refs play you by the book you have any right to complain or say they don't respect spain. After all you have to give respect to get respect and spain doesn't do it..

This is simply whining....

Look at the stats. Turkey committed 18 fouls whereas Spain 14.
Big men of Turkey
Savas 8 mins 3 fouls
Erden 24 mins 3 fouls
Ilyasova 34 mins 4 fouls..

Between those unsportsmanship fouls are just 100% fair. I guess you do have no idea about the new rules of FIBA.

And for the last possession if we open a poll here I bet 90% of users vote it as not a foul.

We should also look stats more. You have 15 turnovers(could be more than that-u were lucky in some positions where you lost the ball and recover again) which is way high for a low scoring game whereas Turkey had only 8.

I am sorry, but you keep insisting how good this Spanish team is. They are not very good and their roster is riddled with severely overrated players. The truth is that no, they actually are not that good of a team.

100% agree.....
Without trying to glare turkey's victory, Spain this year is nothing more that average...

Referees sometimes are more permissive with contact and others not, if it's first case, it's useless for Spain if Marc or Pau try always a forced shot instead of passing outside. The team is not inspired in attack, they need not to force all plays, sometimes it seems they look for the most difficult one , not the easy.

They are one of the top teams in the world if they play as a team. Currently, there's just no teamwork on both ends at all. i do think they are very capable--- but executing it is another matter. Maybe wrong rotation? Bad coaching? Whatever, they have the talent but obviously that is not enough to win games at this level.

Maybe because all of you are haters I already realised why there´s no many spaniards in this forum but i´ll keep my crusade against all the heretics

Seriously now, i´ve replayed it again and there was no foul over Llull, it seemed to me live that Ersan has hitted Llull´s elbow.

Anyway, as long as France or Greece failed , ill be happy

Mission accomplished, peace of cake.

Greek loby now accepting mission requests from other lobys.

Good suggestion but I use armchair when important times. If I jump armchair to bed and bed to armchair like monkey,my arm chair may be upset and It may lose its magic But I may try yourr suggestion. I haven't tried , I should have tried that for prep games. Prep games are for this. Now trying is hard. We are in tournament AND You are my friend, ok but there is still question in my mind. may be Greek loby wants you to say this to me for us to go down.

yes,don't do this.It's a trap for armchair to lose magic if u use so much.
Greek loby is evil!!
Mysh is good,but after all is greek loby.So don't trust.

Request 4 the rest of the greek loby: Failure of Serbia!
I know u don't agree with me, but that's my request. If the loby can't help me, I'll try it on my own. I am a member of the infamous greek loby and I have my share of the superpowers.
