Don't get carry away because he look really good the last game everyone has bad night. He properly will have his share of bad games with us next year.
It probably was one bad night, but honestly I would not mind seeing Harkless pass him up for starting SF. When Harkless got minutes he was a better all around player than Aminu.
Talking of which: Puerto Rico beat Brazil yesterday but Harkless didn't play. I thought he was on the Puerto Rican team?
No, he didn't look "really good". He looked okay. And he hasn't exactly been facing world-class competition. Gorgui Dieng looked "really good".
Last game what was he 20pt and 8 Reb in 20min of play that pretty good for any player. This game Wasnt the offense showing we all want. But we all know is still in works and we got him for his defense.
This one's actually a nail-biter. Looked like Nigeria had it, Dieng brought Senegal back. They had a shot to win it, but now it's overtime.
10pts 10 boards and 3 steals for Aminu going into overtime..not bad. I like that 9 of his rebounds were defensive boards
Nigeria wins it in overtime. Best Nigerian players: Shane Lawal and Chamberlain Oguchi. Our Aminu was again fairly anonymous.
I feel bad for Senegal - massive underdogs but gave Nigeria everything they could handle until OT. Although he was quieter this game (Lawal might have had something to do with that), Dieng is no doubt the player of the tournament.
Tunisia (who kicked Nigeria's ass) vs. Angola (the perennial African champions, probably most famous for the Barkley quote) for the other spot in the final.
No problem. If you're still hankerin' for some basketball, Greece vs. Lithuania is currently ongoing.
