It also increases our chances at making the quarterfinals assuming we don't get overconfident. c'mon! if your team doesn't get at least into the top 4 at the end of the tournament, you should send them home by swimming (with some sharks pursuing them) Josh, Griff88, NearPup and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff88 1,737 Posted August 26, 2023 #247 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Canada vs France was the only sold out match so far in Indonesia. Funnily enough Bertans said that he hoped at least 2,000 local people come when journalists asked him during their training session (probably thinking basketball is not that popular here) Benolympique and Josh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHSN 3,221 Posted August 26, 2023 #250 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I knew we are the weakest team of the whole tournament but that was embarrassing. probably the worst performance ever in a Basketball World Cup history and I wish I knew why the hell our dumb coach started the game with such a weird line-up ?!? that already gave up a 20pts lead to Brazil iran2016, Benolympique and Josh 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
