      Te imaginas como estaria el LMM cuando aterrize ese avion con las 12 magnificos cargando medallas de bronze??? Wow!! But in all reality it ain't a far fetched dream!! We have the talent, we just seem to play down to the competition every time! If Coach Olmos can finally (with a full cycle with the team) get the team to play 100% every game with discipline and fundamentals the world will see the type of basketball that we can play. I believe we can go head to head with anybody...

      As for your predictions, wow Brazil over Greece in round 2? That's a guts call?
      Serbia over Argentina is interesting! Los gauchos odian a Los serbios desde 2002! Ese juego seria interesantisimo si se diera!!

      I see the groups something similar to yours but I think Finland advances from group C as the 2nd or 3rd seed...

          I do see as expected that we are really underdogs here but at least were in the world cup. Am really glad though that some of the forumers here have given as a chance as the darkhorse in our bracket. We really are -twin digits against all the other teams in our bracket except for senegal. Hopefully we could play our A game in all of the games to at least give us a chance or maybe even upset some of them.

            All of a sudden Dominican Republic and Finland are MUCH better than Turkey, according to almost everyone here... Pretty weird

            We will see....

              They aren't MUCH better but as for Finland, they are a better TEAM, maybe not talent-wise but definitely in team chemistry and team basketball. As for the Dominican Republic, they can put on a great team and they have been making great strides since Calipari took over (he is no longer the coach but his top assistant at UK took the helm when he left) and the team is only going up.

              There's a reason as to why Turkey is a top 10 team in the FIBA rank, I mean, home-court advantage can only take you so far right? But they have been so consistently bad playing away from home that it makes you have second thoughts about picking them to live up to their potential... Until they prove everybody wrong I will continuously doubt them. There's no doubt they are talented and they have the resources but the seem to choke whenever they play away from home. I believe they will be competitive, no doubt, but so will be the other teams in that group. Even though that's not the toughest group, it still has 3 Europeans, 2 Americans + NZ... It wont be a cakewalk but it wont be a gauntlet either and that's Why I think Finland, Ukraine and DR might have the upper hand on Turkey.

                Well actually I'm rooting for 22 teams to win, you only root for one.
                So you're wishing for 23 countries to fail while I'm wishing for 2 countries to fail
                Your argument is invalid

                  Oh...so you're a pan-nationalist, that's what you're telling me? You should drop the Turkish flag off your avatar and put the United Nations one in its place.
