obixcel:Dude, Trump ain’t using his personal money to host the other G-7 leaders. It’s taxpayers that foot the bill. Now, because it will be hosted at his private resort, whatever payments made by the delegations of the foreign goes directly to his pocket |
It has to be illegal for a sitting president to host an international meeting at his private resort. How ethical is it for the president to bill American taxpayers for hosting world leaders, and pocketing the proceeds? |
Point of correction: This will be the first time the Nigerian men’s team would be playing in the final, since 2003, when they lost 0-2 to Cameroon. |
Lol.. it had to take an official White House statement to denounce an obvious lie. Sometimes, I wonder if Trump intentionally lies or he just wants to entertain us with outrageous statements ![]() |
The final roster looks formidable, and I’m especially excited that Jordan Nwora made the final cut! Still maintaining that the team is good enough to make the quarterfinals, at the very least |
Here is the final D’Tigers roster for the World Cup: Vincent Nnamdi, Chimezie Metu, Ike Diogu, Ike Iroegbu, Michael Eric, Benjamin Uzoh, Al Farouk Aminu, Zanna Talib, Stanley Okoye, Jordan Nwora, Joshua Okogie, Ekpe Udoh |
Kalixx:Lol Why did you say “men”? |
BascoVanVeli:Ok |
darkelf: ![]() It was actually in the 2012 Olympics that Team USA thrashed D’Tigers by an 80-point margin. But if there is a rematch in China, the gap wouldn’t be that huge |
Coach Alex Nwora will name his final 12-man roster for the World Cup on Tuesday. |
But Goal says those six players will be available..as of 5 hours ago |
BascoVanVeli:Seriously?! |
The mods here should be more impartial. Yes, insulting posts could be hidden, but not funny ones |
BascoVanVeli:is on fire |
Danielnino00:They lost 85-71 |
GalaticHorde: ![]() |
D’Tigers beat Poland 87-84 in overtime at the Peak Invitational tournament. The victory was even more impressive as they had to claw back a 16-point deficit!! |
GalaticHorde:Completely unpresidential behavior |
somehow:It’s gonna be tough, but this team has the talent to beat those other team. The teams I’m really scared of are the U.S. and Spain! I believe they are head and shoulders above every other team. In fact, the Spanish team are slightly better than the American team only because the Americans aren’t coming to the tournament with their top NBA stars like Curry, Kawhi Leonard, or Kevin Durant. Funny enough, if D’Tigers finish as runners up in the second group stage, and win their quarterfinal, they would likely come up against...the United States in the semifinal! |
D’Tigers are good enough to advance to the quarterfinals or beyond |
Nigeria’s senior men’s basketball national team, D’Tigers have arrived in China for the last phase of their FIBA World Cup preparation. The team, which departed Lagos through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport aboard Emirate Airline, arrived in China on Wednesday night before proceeding to Yangzhou for the Peak Invitational International tournament, which started yesterday and will end on August 27. The Coach Alex Nwora tutored side with 15 players still in camp eight days to the World Cup will compete against fellow World Cup bound Iran, Montenegro and Poland as they perfect their plans. Nwora revealed that he would release the final 12-man list after their Peak Invitational campaign on August 27 ahead of their first game against Russia on August 31.Nigeria, whose last appearance at the World Cup was in 2006, is grouped alongside Russia, Argentina and Korea. Meanwhile, the Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF) has thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for his fatherly role in the senior women basketball team’s 2019 Afrobasket triumph. |
Rep Seth Moulton has dropped out of the presidential race. There are now 21 Democrats left |
steady986:The competition amongst the players would only be to our benefit. Imagine Amukamara starting a game, and in the 2nd quarter, coach Otis subs in Arike for her. That one na from frying pan to fire for the opposition ![]() |
Sen Harris and her hubby are greeting you all
|
D’Tigers are now in China, and will face Iran in an exhibition game today. |
D’Tigers World Cup schedule is as follows: August 31: Nigeria v. Russia at 9:30am September 2: Nigeria v. Argentina at 9:30am September 4: South Korea v. Nigeria at 9:30am *All times are in Nigerian time* |
somehow:Completely agree |
Washington state Governor, Jay Inslee, has withdrawn from the presidential race |
isan:The coach can also try the 4-2-1-3 or 4-1-4-1 systems |
A40:You don't mean it? Anyway, I hope Felicia Aiyeotan of Virginia Tech won't turn down an invite to D'Tigress. She was born and lived in Nigeria till she was in her late teens. She stands at a massive 6"9". |
I’ve taken a look at the FIBA eligibility rules, and I discovered that Arike Ogunbowale could still play for Nigeria if she acquired a Nigerian passport before she turned 16! |
A40:It all depends on whether the NBBF can secure a decent commercial sponsorship to the tune of $900,000/yr or more. If they can pull it off, and guarantee a bonus of, say, $400/day in camp allowance and $5,000 per game, the likes of Arike and other WNBA or college players could be tempted to play for Nigeria. Anyways, my dream D’Tigress starting five would be: Ezinne Kalu, Evelyn Akhator, Arike, Ibekwe, and Adaora Elonu. |
