    Default Group B, day 3: Angola vs China

    The teams still waiting for a win in Group B. China looks to get a win as the host nation, but Angolans always struggle and they sure don't want to leave Beijing without a win. Should be an interesting game to watch.

    I would like to see Angola win, but this time China will. They have bigger players, home court and big motivation after Spain game.

    Even though both teams played a real close game together in the Diamond Tournament my prediction is for China to beat Angola by 8 points in a close game. They should take advantage of their size under the basket.

    I want to go for Angola, even if inside sector of China is very very impressive, especially Wang Zhizhi.

    yeah Wang Zhizhi is really showing his offensive arsonal in this olympics. Kudos to him. I'm rooting for china though I agree this will probably be a close game. China's always had trouble on the boards and this angolian team are quite atheletic (same style as US). I'm guessing 78-70 china wins.

    China will win this one comfortably provided they aren't thinking about the Spain game.

    China by 20+

    I did vote for China..
    but now I'm not so sure..
    if the game wasn't being played in China I would pick Angola with Yao looking like as "bad" and tired as he is..
    but refs could have something to say about the final outcome..
    afterall more then one billion people could haunt them

    This is kind of a hard one. I see either team winning here, but something is telling me China will win. I would love to see a cracking performance by Yao this game.

    I hope so. Angola is capable of beating China, but they will need to display perfect offensive execution. Angola must deny Yao and Wang the ball in the middle.
