Originally posted by Saskibaloia View PostIt's an interesting question of whether or not Jordan is the worst team in the tournament.
In my opinion, I thought either the Ivory Coast or Tunisia were the worst. However, I'm more familiar with Asian Basketball than African Basketball thus, I cannot really have an opinion on the African nations.
I'm hoping that Jordan and Lebanon does well in this tournament as well as Iran so that the profile of basketball continues to rise in the "Football Crazy" Middle East.
but it's certainly not the best-played games by middle easters
and in Lebanon's case, not the most popular game, when it comes to local leagues and NT. We're good at basketball and rugby, but we suck at soccer for many reasons , most having to do with the corrupt federation (problem that could have existed in basketball but we got lucky)
rationally Lebanon's chances are a bit better then Jordan. It has to do with the preparations, the group conditions, the experience (it's Lebanon's 3rd WC) and the persistence. but surprises can be made.
I personally do not want to see Jordan going far, because i do not respect a NT going far because some naturalised players.

Jordan up 39-32 at halftime. They are playing really well, spreading the court and running down the shot clock on each possession. Australia can play better though.Originally posted by FedfanMost ppl get childish when they lose.Originally posted by GuTOrefs in games of Spain walks with literally poop in his pants afraid of the Spanish players
