Not over yet...
Barring miracle it is over.
We won ^.^!
BARÇA O MUERTE
Ridiculous ending.
Where was the foul?! What happened there! Oh Great Britain, coming up with new ways to lose. Britain vs Australia should be good.
The Rules learned in the Prediction game.
1: Brazil is always disappointing
2: Never dismiss Argentina solely because of age.
3: Never bet against Spain in a knockout game, unless it is against the US.
another great finish
Romeo Travis about Zadar coach Ante NazorRomeo Travis @RomeTrav
I said coach why we practice so much. He said God will bless us after all this hard work. How can I argue with that !
You got lucky.
Wow, a close game!
Why didn't anyone foul the Spanish players at the end?
They just wanted the game to end incase the DJ started playing YMCA again.Originally Posted by macleopard13
Second game in a row they've failed to foul late. WTF?
As one of the British newspapers pointed out after the Brazil game, GB has been close in a good number of games against highly-rated teams in recent years, and failed to win any of them. Already this year they lost tight friendlies to Lithuania, France, and Spain, and then Brazil and Spain in the Olympics.

If it had been called, GB would have the last possession to win the game.
Yes england got lot of luck hitting 3 3pt in the last min
BARÇA O MUERTE
Spain controlled the game until the last couple of minutes, always up 8-10 points but never pushing it to get a bigger lead. So GB stayed in the game even if they were not that close for the most part.
The Spanish team surely needed the wake-up call.
Spain is suffering the absence of Navarro..... DEADLY!!!!
I´m afraid that if Navarro don´t recover for the next matches, we will not reach semis.
Great effort at the end by GB, both teams will take a game like this and improve from it. Ashame though that GB two games in a roe had a chance to extend the game by fouling and fail to do so twice, I bet if they find themselves in the same situation against the Aussies they will find a way to foul. Deng once again showing why he is such a valuble player for the bulls, clutch shots from him down the stretch to give GB a chance, this GB team could shock some people if they improve from these recent loses. Good luck to both teams moving on to their next matches
Great Britain made a big effort and deserved something more, they always put Spain in trouble in the last years. They have been in the main competitions for just a short time yet so it's not so strange that they don't handle well some close game situations in the last minutes. They were about to beat Brazil and Spain, something that seemed not possible 4 or 5 years ago, so it's a matter of time that they improve and hope they can make their countrymen wake up and feel a little more interest for basketball.
As for Spain, it seems that this kind of games are becoming a habit in first rounds with Scariolo.
