Afrobasket 2013

Did Egypt simply play really really well or did Tunisia play half-hardheartedly expecting to beat a weak team like Egypt?

Looks like Angola will be champs once again. Too bad Nigeria didn't have Oguchi!

What an UPSET OF THE TOURNAMENT.

I have watched all of Tunisia's games, and simply they were pretty bad in three of their four games.
On paper it's a big upset but if you watched the games Tunisia's level just weren't that high this time around. Mejri nothing but a shot blocker and Rhomdane kept choking on the free-throw line.

Angola will win, if Nigeria doesn't make teams respect them from down town.

Cameroon is no slouch.. But Cote D Ivoire have homecourt advantage.. too bad ameroon wouldn't get wildcard or the loser of this match..

[reamily]

hey Chinese Taipei would get that wildcard slot thats if Canada qualifies if not Canada gets it..

Well the bracket goes like this: Winner of Angola-Morocco/Winner Ivory Coast-Cameroon and Winner Nigeria/Senegal/Winner Egypt/Cape Verde.

Obviously if Nigeria wins tonight, i think it'll be the first finalist. From the other pair i will vote Cameroon, but it's very uncertain.

Why is most these Angolan players not playing in Europe?

The teams I want to win do not win.

This loss of Nigeria was so frustrating.Kudos to Senegal for their fighting spirit but Nigeria had such a talented roster.The coaching was beyond terrible,so many capable post players yet they kept chucking ill advised shots in the 4th quarter.When you can form such a strong squad at least find some capable coach to lead them,not some amateurs.

Great hurt from Senegal, tonight! And good tactic choice from their coach. This zone defense, confused nigeria. Although you can't go very far with one point guard.

niegeria the only african team who can compete with the international power houses got elimenited and one of shitiest teams i ve ever seen still has a shot to play the wc !!! egyptian team i mean

[Dtown]

Damn how strong was group A? 3 of the 4 finalists.

[greenarcher]

Ouch. The teams with legit NBA players got booted out of the Quarters while Asia's bitch still has a shot at the WC. LOL!

Chinese Taipei must be so pissed right now!

[rocketstar47]

Egypt will be on the FINALS

Although I didn't have a dog in the flight, Nigeria's loss to Senegal is as disappointing as it comes. They had a real chance to build on their Olympic appearance by qualifying for the WC, but instead, they'll have to start right back at square one. What a shame for their program. The Nigerians are way too talented and experienced to go out like this.
