USA game tonight

6th

Homer Fan Since 1985
...I think is vs South Korea. Anyway, NBATv shows it at 1 a.m. Is that Eastern Time, meaning that we could get it here (in CA) at 10 p.m. tonight?
 
Still entirely too much one-on-one for my tastes; a lot of LeBron James brings the ball up and shoots, or Carmelo Anthony brings the ball up and shoots, or Dwyane Wade brings the ball up and shoots. Virtually no ball movement in the halfcourt offense; that's going to kill USA against any team that's worth a damn, like it nearly killed them against a mediocre Brazil team.
 
Well there were some iffy parts, but for the most part, I liked what I saw on both ends.

Didn't like how Brad did his shot-fake - drive.... turn over. And passed up his shot another time as well.

Excited for the game against SK.

Wasn't impressed with the one-on-one, as Mr. Slim mentioned. And yet, I did see a lot of unselfish basketball as well.

It was a fun game to watch, though. And that final score was way closer than the entire game indicated.
 
lithuania is a mystery to me. probably due to over-motivation, they usually play like a bunch of ball-hogs against the team usa. that is not their game. the absence of jasikevicius will hurt them a lot; they seem to lack a decent pg. and songaila was very, very slow. i did not really like what i saw. however, i am pretty sure that they will destroy the turkish national team in the opening game, especially now that, both hedo and memo not playing.
 
Argentina/France should be fun next saturday...

- Pietrus

I wish I had NBAtbv, at least i saw 2 games and was happy about that as they have 4 of my favorite players on team USA:D
 
Those two twin 7 footers were mighty impressive. You rarely see 7 footers that can move like that. Not to mention the shooting ability. Wow, I want those guys on the Kings.
 
This is kinda off topic but what channel is the next game on? NBA.com says ESPN, so if it is I can watch it. But I dunno the games so far have been on ESPN2 or NBATV and I don't have either.
 
in case anyone at all is interested, these games can be bought via google video, according to the usa basketball website.
