They both suck on soccer.
Sun Yue and Yi are playing well. Yao doesn't have enough touches.

Yes, but I have Chinese channel, so...

It's also on USA now. 27-24 Lithuania

andykeikei · Post #7 » by **andykeikei** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:16 am

Lithuania is playing really good defense.

andykeikei · Post #8 » by **andykeikei** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:19 am

LOL! We really get some favorable call here.

seriously the chinese point guards suck ass...more turnovers than passes

andykeikei · Post #10 » by **andykeikei** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:27 am

Half time: 41-30 Lithuania

The biggest mismatch of the game so far is Jasikevicius vs. Liu Wei

They both suck on soccer and Lithuania is one of the few countries that basketball is the favorite sport.

Yup, he either drives to the lane and loses the ball; passes to opponents or just throws up some random shots. I wonder how far China goes if we get a decent PG.

Poor shooting by Lithuania is keeping us (kind of) in the game, down 41-30 at the half. Yao has been contained by the front/doubles that Lithuania sends, and our guards cannot keep up with the pressure. On defense, high pick and roll with Jasikevicius and the guy Yao is guarding is yielding great results for them. Yao's pick and roll defense has always been a weakness of his game.

I can't see us winning this game, I'd love to keep hope but my brain tells me as soon as Lithuania's shooting picks up, we will start to get blown out.

Yeah! China only qualified for World Cup once and that was because Korea and Japan automatically qualified since they are the hosts.

Im still in confusion whats the PG is doin and what the game plan is. And why the hell are some of the chinese players throwing the ball away? Yi man, gotta learn not to stress. Dribbled on his foot and then threw it away when he just had to pass it 2 meters....

I know we(Turkey) were in the same group with them. Crushed them 3-0, was an easy game.

Wang Zhizhi is the worst defender I have seen. Ever. At any level of basketball.

prekazi · Post #19 » by **prekazi** » Wed Aug 20, 2008 10:01 am

this game is over. There's no way China can push a comeback unless the refs gone crazy. Yao is tired as hell, he's about to die.

What we need the most are stops... I said at the half if Lithuania finds their shots, we are screwed... and in a quarter where the Lithuanians could not stop fouling Yao, they still gained 6 points on us.
