For once you've typed something sensible.

I guess even a broken clock gets to be correct at some point.
Shut up and get sense

Sometimes it's good to be calm, concentrated and humble when on a winning streak.

However I believe with the right mindset and preparation they can bounce back and do one better.

Few days ago, Southerners were bragging and praising themselves like they're the best thing that happened to Nigeria, just because they luckily defeated inferior USA, We no hear word, now Australia have beat their silly ass, they will come and blame north now grin
When has the north ever secure win for Nigeria except in banditry, kidnapping and terrorism in recent years?

A dangerous margin
I used to think Sound Sultan was old school until he died and I see people really regard him so much.
Rest on Olanrewaju Fasasi...
Sultan was a legend.

He lived a life of purpose. Very principled guy.

None of these guys is living in Nigeria and Buhari will be proud of them. We are living in a turmoil in northern Nigeria while southern separatists want oduduwaExit and BiafraExit. The whole states in trouble.

In basketball u don’t sleep on it. Always on guard. That wasn’t a good game.

U are not the best until u are the best.

Obviously Australia went to the game with a strategy like they were playing the US. So, we should understand we may not have really got to the top, but there is a huge improvement. Or the coach tried something else apart from the game plan or might be he substituted some of their besties, or just something else entirely. I can only pray it is the later so he can go to the Olympics with his first game plan and bring the gold home.

Spoke with sense unlike some wannabe basketball fans who know next to nothing about the sport. Some are even saying they got cocky, against Australia?

If you know who coach Brown is you will know you can't get cocky on his team. The truth is

1. the Aussies are much better than the Nigerians and they are presently the 3rd best in the world in basketball.
2. the Aussies unlike the US team is a complete team of attack and defence unlike the US team that has no notable guard, everybody wants to score double figure, just a bunch of superstars with no team cohesion.
3. Nigeria will be playing the very first match at the olympics against this same Australia and you won't expect the coach to reveal all his tactics to them now.

Even though it's almost sure we would be beaten by the Aussies at the olympics, this team has already become a world class under this coach and believe me the score line will not be this wide then and nobody can disgrace us at the olympics anymore unlike before when USA will defeat us with over 80 points margin. Defeating best (USA) and 4th (Argentina) in world ranking is no mean feat. No african nation has ever attempted that, not even the mighty Mali and Ivory coast during their dominance of the Afro basket ball scene before Nigeria (both male and female) took over.

At least with this,they will know the position that needs to be polished and improved. I believe these guys would go far if all necessary things are put in place for them to florish.

Your punditry is top notch. It is safe to lure your impending opponent to a false sense of superiority. In an exhibition or friendly game.That was obviously what the team did.

Idiot. Australia is arguably the best in the world at the moment. The team has defeated two top 5 nations in convincing fashion. They've already exceeded expectations. What have your useless Northern compatriots contributed to this world?
Musa kida the basketball president is from borno North East but your dark soul and foolish brain won't allow you see properly idiotic Southerners who are worse than racists...
