I don't really understand your bitching. Out of four games so far, he's either been one of his team's top scorers or leading his team in FGAs in three of them. He's been really assertive when he needs to be.
Kleiza finally woke up. And Nic is on the bench with some sore ribs. And LTU's zone is screwing with FRA.
I suppose not, because he's back in. Lithuania is playing much harder, and France hasn't hit a three since the first quarter.
I think France might be trying to avoid Turkey in the first knockout round. Batum mentioned as much in his previous interview. FRA coach benched put Nic on the bench in a crucial time in the third, and took out Diaw for pretty much all of the fourth. Nic is out now as well.
I hadn't thought of that. I just thought France completely imploded. Sometimes you have to remember there's a game within the game in the World Championships. I hope you are right. Batum looked really passive in the second half, and his team stopped looking to him. I thought maybe it was the injury, but maybe not.
