This boys are good, Rotation solid, coach= Top class. Omo we really have a chance mehn

This same Argentina wey rape us for FIBA... Wow...
This team is legit... Beating USA was no fluke.. I am waiting to watch USA vs Australia, make I check something first

Nigeria continues to dominate by attacking the rim. Okafor drives, makes the bucket and gets 1 FT to increase the lead to 21

Illegal screen by Argentina.. TO

B O
See my Naija..

Metu makes a difficult alley to extend the lead to 24

The Argies don’t know what hit them

Omo, proud timez to be a bbal fan in Nigeria. Now we get luxury of dropping High caliber players and have a select list to pick from. God is good.

Festus ezeli now plays in the Nigerian league!!!!! Absolutely shocked, but good one for the league.

Now casual FIBA fans from around the world know that the USA game wasn't a fluke

This team is really good, disciplined and most of all well coached

Excellent performance by the guys and great job by Mike Brown. He uses the strength of the team to exploit the weaknesses of opponents. I desperately hope we see this level when the games start.

I'm looking forward to see if he'll comment on this too? That disrespect was epic
The Argentines are FIBA world cup runners up and The best in South America if I'm not wrong

Mike Brown is coaching the DTigers for free. I have always wondered how we could afford him

My panic level is at a 4.5/10, right now. I am quite worried but not panicking just yet. My biggest issue is the way the roster is constructed. We are going in playing small ball 100% of the time with one of Green/KD playing the 5. This makes it very easy to coach against.
The talent is there but this is international basketball where the rules are a lot more different especially with how contacts are called. We have near 0 perimeter defense at this point. I expect changes and adjustments and will wait until I see them play game one.

The US team needs a true PG. A backcourt of Dame and Beal will just lead to heavy Iso ball. They need someone apart from Draymond whose job is just to set every other person up. Just like Jkidd and CP3 did for the redeem team

Sorry, are you supporting team USA or D'Tigers

I am a bit confused

Choke him off the 3 ball

THey will physically intimidate and outmuscle him.

Joe ingles is mostly a 3 point sniper.

I am not worried about him at all. However, I am a bit worried about our turnover rate last game.

Omo ale... Shior your USA will not do second not to talk of first come this Olympic.

I don't even know that such a basketball thread exists, but I no be NBA fan sha.. I follow liga acb and support the great Real madrid baloncesto that has won Turkish airline Euro league 10 times and Spanish championship 35 times. But our boys are really doing us proud.. The future is foreign.
