You speak of wanting people to show Macedonia respect, but then you go and spell another country's name wrong.

Or is that how we're officially called in macedonian?

Sorry. Asyou can see i did spell it Porto Rico http://forums.interbasket.net/showth...paration-Games

No worries.

Porto is common among other languages, in fact the US forced us one time to change our name to Porto Rico.

Roco is the word I never saw.

Anyway cheers to both teams in these preparation games. If I got my way Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and Macedonia would classify to London. Unfortuantely none of us are the actual favorites.

guess like we need a new name for the island.

Hey man long time no see.

In Macedonia's defense they had a horrible first half. They where missing three pointers left and right. They played much better in the second half which they won by 1.

Obviously other european teams didnt tell them that to beat Puerto Rico you have to strike the paint hard so you can visit the free throw line 30+ times. Shooting 28 three pointers will get you nowhere (Unless you make at least 17 of them lol).

Greece and Lithuania know us better though.

That said I expect a down to the wire second game.

Congrat to Porto Rico for the deserved wictory. We stll have a lot of work to do and time is short. Bo Makelab will only play 2 preperations matches, Antic, Gecevski and Ilievski only 4 matches. And the rest 6.

But us useless when you aint complete. Only 2 matches complete and 4 almost complet.

Just horriable preperations.

My hope is that we will have a dejevu from last year. Poor in preperation matches and later good at the EC.
