    Nice, a game high 15 points to go with 8 boards and 3 assists in only 20 minutes for Aminu.

    Gorgui Dieng looking like MVP of Afrobasket (for whatever THAT's worth)

    I'm watching this game and Aminu is looking like a complete scrub. He's got practically the worst line on Nigeria. Not exactly what you'd hope for, and a big contrast with Gorgui Dieng, for example. Maybe we signed the wrong Aminu?

    Edit: he finished with 8 turnovers and shot 1/7 two pointers. He was -20 (Nigeria lost by 11). He's supposed to be one of the stars of the tournament. He's not even one of the stars of the Aminus. Let's hope this lights a fire under him - but let's just say we shouldn't expect big scoring out of him next season, and the idea that he can take over Batum's "point forward" role is pretty laughable.

    Is he related to the other Aminu, or is Aminu a common last name in Nigeria?
