Are you surprised that Georgia is up 20 against Philippines? Huh?

What happened to Goga? Dude looks skinnier than the Philippine Cs. We kinda depend on Goga to bang with the big bodies of the league.

Yea, Philippines looked really good in their win against Latvia. Same Latvia who stomped Georgia by 30 pts 2 days ago.
Philippines closed the gap at HT, they're down 12 but still qualified at this point.

Yeah, its over for Georgians. As been said, they were 3 men team, Goga, Mamu and Shengelia. All 3 look good, nothing else working for them

Georgia tried to score in their own basket in the end

that would have forced OT and extra 5 minutes for Georgians to get that 19-point win, but the attempt was unsuccessful

Smart. But he also did not want it to go in as it’d be forever embarrasment fo him. LOL.

i wanted the win but i also did not want the OT (we need rest) and we pretty much don’t care who we’ll face in the semis since we’re going to be underdogs there. So while Brazil is better than Montenegro, we need to play our A+ game anyway like we did vs Latvia. Also, we needed the rest more.

With us he actually has a good bbiq. I mean he was gobbling offensive boards for us and made the right cuts. You need a brain to be at the right place at the right time.

Goga missing the "own basket" to send the game to OT :lol:

Slovenia up by 7 at HT against NZ, they need to win by at least 10 pts to qualify or by 29 pts to be 1st in the group.

They had it in control early (20+ lead already i believe) but collapses late in the 2nd half. Dallas fans are rejoicing perhaps.

Hopefully it's not too bad cause he's in the hospital right now and they NEED him to possibly make it to the Olympics.

Refs must have money on Slovenia, the whistle they get is absurd

Scared of Luka i see and you don't want to see Giannis vs Slovenia. LOL

(You shouldn't be, Luka is the only good player in this Slovenian line-up)

I really don’t care. I watch as a neutral observer and the third quarter was just as one sided in terms of whistle as it can get
