Group A, Day 2: Lithuania vs. Nigeria

[JGX]

Lithuania looking to avenge the upset loss from the OQT. Of course this time they won't be throwing the game to eliminate the hosts on purpose

Over/under for plays drawn up by Bakare in the Nigerian huddle is 0.5.

Lithuania more of a swimming nation now I guess.

LOL! We have a new most popular sportsman (oh, sportswoman). Some rest for Valančiūnas I guess Seriously, respect to Rūta Meilutytė. This gold medal means a lot for such country as Lithuania.

As for the game: rebounds and transition defence. No idea about the result, but Lithuania should start showing signs of real basketball.

I can't see Lithuania being had again by Nigeria, especially in front of what will likely be a raucous crowd. However I feel it will be closer than our Lithuanian friends would like.

I disagree Nigeria will win and Lithuania will have a similar tournament to Serbia in 2004

I lol'd, but I'll take the over if "ISO and pray" counts as a play :P

Interesting too that Serbia hasn't been back to the show since.



May your hopes be dashed though.

Maybe you are right maybe you are not.I know that our players are mad at theirselfs right now and they do not forgot first game vs nigeria and talks after it...This can be statement game for lithuania to move forward or as you say end up as serbia in 2004...

Or Poland in 2009. There is a tendency of between 4-5 years gap where we terribly suck. Maybe this is the time for us to suck again. Bit earlier than usual but who knows with our wonderful coach's strategy of centers defending three point line rather than staying under the basket, anything can happen.

No s*it! Lithuanians still didn't forget how to play basketball. It's time to show it for a some idiots damn it!

Many thanks!!!

Dogfight so far, Lithuania looked like they might put this away but as we saw in the OQT no lead is really safe with Nigeria.

Refs need to decide if they're going to let these two teams play, or call it tight. One or the other, not both.

nigeria gets so many rebounds its crazy, wish our team was black xD
