Abm any idea on how batum vs turkey today? Tried googling it on my phone but couldn't find anything. Thanks
They beat Turkey 80-68, coming back from a 19 point first half deficit. Nic was one of 3 second leading scorers in 25 minutes, with 13 points (5/7 on 2s, 1/3 on 3s), 3 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 TO. France earned a place at the 2012 World Chamipionships in Turkey. They will play for 5th place against Croatia tomorrow. (Turkoglu finished with 13 points in 33 minutes, with 6 rebs, 3 ast, 2 st and 4 TOs) Link
Nicolas just had a nice all-around game albeit a subpar one in terms of shooting in their win today against Croatia: 8 pts (2/7 FG), 6 rebs, 8 ast, 2 TOs in 34 minutes (Parker sit this one out so I guess he handled the rock quite a bit). Very encouraging!
