Re: Nigeria Vs Brazil
Nigeria should not be losing by 20 points. When it comes to sports, we seem to be mentally fickle.

Very POOR 4th quarter. Not a disciplined performanceDr. Wazobia wrote:Nigeria should not be losing by 20 points. When it comes to sports, we seem to be mentally fickle.
That said, the GULF in class was obvious. Nene was just too good for us to handle. We suppose 'injure' am
We need to work on our rebounds.

Re: Nigeria Vs Brazil
anyway, they tried their best, as others have commented, not really a team, just a collection of guys playing together. Did the nation proud against Croatia, Spain and Lithuania, not sure what happened today, they could do better, should have been closer, the perimeter shooting was off today, Champ has been cold the last two games and the rest didn't step up. do we now playing the last team in the other group for final placings? Not sure if that's done in bball at the olympics
just look at rebounding, defensive Nigeria rebounding 24, Brasil picked up 20 offensive rebounds

Bro, the number of turnovers in the 4th quarter was laughable. It was like watching those bums who used to 'compete' against the Harlem Globetrotters.wanaj0 wrote:Very POOR 4th quarter.

The commentators even inferred that the scoreline did not reflect Nigeria''s quality. The guys were not there today and just did not execute their plans...

2nd shot? Dude at one point I counted like 4th shot opportunity.F360 wrote:Horrible terrible turnovers.
Worse for me is giving up so many 2nd shot opportunities. No one hustling for the ball to get rebounds, instead just assuming the rebounds will go to whomever is close.

Yeah I think so too. The game to have won was Lithuania.F360 wrote:They've fallen apart in the 4th quarter.

I hope they build on this. Hopefully the coaching crew is retained so he can develop a long term program. In just over a year he's done very well. Maybe he can start working on recruiting other eligibles.

Like i keep saying , its the coaching.... He had nothing for the team in the 4th Quarter...Ere shouldn't be on the team talk less of being there in the 4th quarter...
Re: NIGERIA VS BRAZIL
With a better coach.. they would have won vs Luthuinia, Spain, Brazil..theYemster wrote:Yeah I think so too. The game to have won was Lithuania.F360 wrote:They've fallen apart in the 4th quarter.

add With Farouk and the other guy missing (our 2 best players), they would have beaten everyone in this group...
Re: NIGERIA VS BRAZIL
Abeg lets not import our stupid short-sighted shoot-st-sight soccer culture into basketball. Coaching was good. We just didnt execute well. We have a solid foundation to build on.

Re: NIGERIA VS BRAZIL
Tough loss, guys didn't bring it, and Nene proved why we needed a 7 footer on the squad.

Ike Diogu did not have a good tournament, despite his high scores. Out low post game was non-existent.Player wrote:Tough loss, guys didn't bring it, and Nene proved why we needed a 7 footer on the squad.

Lol bro I didn't even want to mention that but I saw that on a number of possessions in the 4th qtr too. That and the turnovers were the most annoying part of the game.
