    Damnit. I hope this is archived somewhere. I don't have access to this nbcextra site as I don't have cable.

    Me too because if you were to miss this, I don't know how you could live with yourself? It's literally the best Ihave ever seen any SF play in the history of basketball

    Batum's playing well, I was hoping to see this 'ball-handling guard' people keep saying Batum is with France, and I haven't yet.

    He can't do that with TP dominating the ball. He did it with Nancy last year, and a few yrs back when TP was hurt with the national team.

    Very true, but the times I've seen Batum run the pick and roll I have not been impressed.

    I'd like to see Batum be more assertive and aggressive, play like he is the 2nd best player on the team!

    He doesn't do it for Portland, why should he for France?

    True. Silly me for expecting him to dominate more against lesser competition. :)

    I hope France can hold on for the win. I'm not a big Ginobli or Scola fan!

    Nico with a nice three. Ginobli a one man team. The Ginobli flop and he gets called for the tripping foul afterwards. Batum steal. Parker trying to do it alone. France leading by 8 three minutes to go.

    I wouldn't consider Argentina lesser competition. Their starting line up is made up of all NBA guys. Prigioni, Delfino, Manu, Scola, Nocioni.

    Parker keeps shooting (and missing) threes. Not his game. Ginobli OTOH is the best player in the game.

    That'd be a 15 win team in the NBA.

    Turiaf and Diaw fouled out within 5 seconds of each other. France up 6 with two minutes left.

    How the hell was that a foul on Diaw?
