just noted how many players in this championship are wearing huge beards, lol, whats up with that?

Wow that Spain game is lobsided. Horrible Donaghy-style refereeing helping of course.

62-38 right now, doubt you can blame the refs for that...
M.Gasol 14pts 11reb
A.Tomic, 3pts, 5 reb.

never said I did. They just increase the gap in score. Especially early in the game, there were horrible reach ins, illegal screens and hooking from Spain that wasn't punished. When Croatia grew increasingly frustrated and tried to adapt to the refs interpretation of the rules, they got called off.
But the difference should be more like 15-20 instead of 25-30

Couple thrilling endings, Montenegro and Ukraine both complete comebacks and win by 1 pt in last seconds - interestingly enough both teams won on last second free throws by naturalized Americans Rice and Jetter. Greece on the other hand blow out Sweden.

Also Macedonia's leading scorer is American. Not sure why McCalleb has not tried coming back over to the US.

Lithuania vs Serbia is about to start. Should be a good one.

Germany leading by 13 after the first quarter against France consisting of Parker, Batum, Diaw, Ajinca, Petro, Gelabale and de Colo. Is this real life?

They beat us many times, Germany can play very well sometimes although they have limited players.

Croatia was horrible against Spain and I knew they would be.

Slovenia having hard times right now against the Czechs, France is down against Germany, Lithuanians have horrible back court like Turkey, Russians are miserable now against crippled Italy....

Man, this is maybe the weakest Eurobasket of the last 50 years.
