So what happened to these NBA-filled Lebanon team? Nothing is better than seeing arrogant and overconfident fans getting humbled.

Well done Jordan for sending the Lebanese team and their overconfident/arrogant fans crashing back down to Earth.

I just learnt an important lesson in my life is that never be arrogant and self confident.Jordan deserved to win the game,played very good defense and offense.
Jackson Vroman was horrible,is he a guard or what ? he made many killing tunorvers that led to easy layups for Jordan while Matt is not receiving the ball at all,Fadi is not trying to shoot,and Brian always lost with his anger.
The problem is not having any quick guard with a good dribble who can drive and make the defense of the opponent lost,fadi is slow and brian doesnt have a good dribble.
Anyway we lost a battle but not a war,if we really a good team,its now the good time to prove that we are or its better go home and start preparing for another good team.

the lebanese are definitely not worse than the philipinos who said they can beat the chinese(1st team) in 2007 and ended up losing in the 1st round so i wouldnt talk about another country if i were u

Hahahaha I thought Lebanon is here to beat China? What the hell happened? Routed, manhandled, and humiliated by Jordan? It's gut-check time bitches!

hard luck guys and congrats jordan. this is what im talking about... many people here are already being overconfident because of the addition of new players in lebanon. before this game, some are even saying they have a lower chance of losing to jordan. look what happened... familiarity with each other is a must in this lebanon all-star type of team. and its pretty obvious lebanon is still in the process of building chemistry together. mario palma is just a hell of a coach. he took advantage of the situation... goodluck!

let's just try to understand him. anyway, this forum is full of adults right? So let's act like one. LOL

Probably someone from PeX who has been on the downside lately. Blame that on the recession. hehehehe

[rensquared]

What??? Lebanon lost to Jordan? Men, that means Jordan is that strong to beat a powerhouse like Lebanon. My hat's off for Jordan. Good win. Rasheim Wright is just a monster out there.

But I still believe Lebanon will win its next matches.

Congrats to Jordan.

Go Lebanon!

[icebreaker]

Just like what I have said before, Jordan can win if leading big but lose if the game is close. Congrats to Jordan anyway.
