Spain's basketball reeks of embarrassment and cheating. I hope they get 4th in Paris.

Team Canada has Victor Lapena, supposedly one of the best women's international coaches in the world. I do not see anyone blaming Lapena. Therefore, the blame must fall on the PLAYERS. Kia Nurse COULD have potentially scored enough points to defeat Spain and Japan. But her absence only magnifies the fact that Team Canada does not have the talent or depth to be a consistent FIBA medal contender.

While it's sad for us to go out like this, it was a tough group and honestly, if we can't defeat Spain or Japan then our chances to medal were pretty low.

An honest Team Canada fan and an HONEST assessment of your team.

am not pro Canada or pro Hungary.. but I remain shocked that Canada contending for the podium in Paris is not even qualified

They never perform at the Olympics anyway. It was either shit the bed here or shit the bed in Paris. They decided to get it out of the way early this time.

 

At least our men finally qualified.

I’d rather they shit the bed at the Olympics though.

I can tell you right now Canada might not qualify for the 2024 Olympic Women's Basketball Tournament. And they most certainly will not medal at the 2024 Olympics. Canada's roster does not have ONE WNBA All-Star, much less a world class player. Canada has a good jockey {Victor LaPena} riding an old sway- back horse destined for the GLUE factory.

FYI, it's not over yet. This can turn into a dangerous situation for Hungary quickly if they somehow lose focus, which is always possible for a Hungarian team. 

no, Spain seems to be giving up. I would have liked to see a match full of fight like yesterday Serbia Brazil

Lead is too much to make up, and Spain aren’t even trying. It’s over. 
 

Edit: Now a 7 point lead, but I just don’t see Spain coming back from down 19.

    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
    • On the other hand Errani's serve doesn't make Paolini's task any easier... But Paolini is in a such good shape here, though, that I hope she wins her first title in the old Fed Cup. For Errani, it will be 4: 2009, 2010, 2013. So far, Roberta Vinci has 4 titles with Italy.
