    1st. they're not Argentina's shadow anymore
    2nd. they showed all their Euro Haters, they are at the same level of the top European teams
    3rd. They were the only team who could actually complete against USA

    The Bad - either Argentina/Spain's excellent flopping skills or Fran Fraschilla

    The Ugly - Turkish fans booing the American Anthem at the Medal Ceremony (very classy)
    Lol are you brazilian or something, you were giving them too much undeserved props (yes they are about top 8 team maybe, but from your comments it looked like they are top 2 ) all the time during the championship

    They were not booing anthem, they were booing politicans who left the hall at that time. Notice the booing was short and not during all of the anthem

    Ps: what is that fran franchella and what is the robbing the bank comment made by him?

      I'm not even talking about that. that was way before.

      Way after that, when they started playing the Anthem, Turkish fans started booing

        the good:
        -untypical usa player behavior. they played with so much respect for others and they were acually very happy winig gold medal.
        -masters of basketball durant and scola.
        -lithuanian basketball pride
        -american refs (they let players to play basketball)

        the bad:
        -basketball is geting uglier evrey year (my apologise to mr. todosic, last surviver of romantic basketball)
        -only two true star performaces (scola and durant)
        -inconsistant ref creteria (probabley cosed because refs are from difrent fiba zones)
        -camear directors or whatever that job is called. they have zero sense for basketball.

        the ugley:
        -france and greece losing itentionaly
        -playing for nt losing more and more value. worst sport in that direction
        Jordi Bertomeu sucks!

          I am talking about the same. At that moment when Anthem started playing the politicans were going out of the hall.. (Unless somebody who were in the stadium denies it, but it surely looked like that)

                  I don't think they were booing the anthem, because they started booing when the anthem was already playing and finished doing it quickly, it didn't look like it was directed at the anthem at all. They were probably booing politicians, but it's still bad that they they did it while the anthem was being played.

                    The best player: Durant
                    The rising star: Pocius (The kid has it!)
                    The good surpise: Lithuania
                    The bad surpise: Spain/Greece
                    Good but ugly team: Russia (Ugly playing style, no stars, but made her best)
                    Good but ugly player: Teodosic. Great player. Shitty personality. Once again he didn't come to the ceremony (he did the same in Euroleague). He should learn to behave himself and to give more respect to all the people around him. I hope Dusan Ivkovich will do something about it.
                    The Ugly: Attendance. (I will not speak about the refs. They were bad, but they were bad in every big tournament that I remember. So there was nothing unusual at this WC)

                      The good:

                      1. USA. Their respect to others, It was kind of surprise, but I think this is because of Coach K.
                      2. The Spain finished just 6th .. I can`t stand them..
                      3. Lithuania. No comments..

                      The bad:

                      1. FIBA or Schedule + refs, I feel bad for Serbia at this point. They wanted a Turkey-USA final, they succeed.
                      2. Boring final.. turkey can`t play then they are not winning..

                      The ugly:

                      1. Greek-Russia .. I do not know if that game was the funniest or the ugliest match ever.. greeks showed how to turn basketball into good horror film. 10/10 .. good job.

                        The Good: This Group Side: USA Lithuania Argentina and Russia

                        The Bad: This Group Side: Turkey Serbia Spain and Slovenia

                        The Ugly:

                        USA beat Turkey for 1st place
                        Lithuania beat Serbia for 3rd place
                        Argentina beat Spain for 5th place
                        Russia beat Slovenia for 7th place

                        what kind of grouping is that? We can see which side is strong:

                        In my own opinion Lithuania deserve a silver platter...

                          I do not think that something was much wrong with grouping, because:
                          1) All 8 teams which took 1st and 2nd places in their groups had advanced to the 1/4 finals round - no exceptions! (this means that all 2nd teams won against the 3rd teams of other groups)
                          2) All 1st teams of the groups advanced to the semifinals (once again, no exceptions).

                          This shows that seeding was almost perfect.
