No LeBron, Kobe, Dwight, Carmelo, Wade, Chris Paul yet they dominated the tournament :coleman:[/QUOTE]
How the hell is that 4-5 of their best players missing, and their best player playing with a severe injury?

I call bullshit. Link or it didn't happen assf**k.
And how is this supposed to shut up the haters? Isn't this basically some sort of charity handout? They still didn't exactly qualify by their own merit so, in a way, this is sort of embarrassing for Greece, no?

How many times have you seen Giannis double teamed in a game?
Spanoulis is double teamed in every game he plays in. EVERY GAME. Be it Euroleague, or FIBA. Regardless of the teams he is playing against.
Against teams like France and Spain, that are loaded with NBA players, he is double teamed.
Get back to me when teams full of NBA players start double teaming Giannis.

You're telling me that 2010 Lebron, Kobe, Dwight, Wade, Paul and Melo weren't the best players in the NBA? That's 6 of the 7-8 best players in the NBA at that time. The only player from the roster that made it that belongs in that group is Kevin Durant.
The rest of the roster was made up of inexperienced players like 21 year old Rose, Love, Curry, Westbrook, Eric Gordon.
And still they didn't lose a single game and dominated throughout the tournament.

The wild card is being given to Greece solely on basketball achievements and merit.
China, Brazil, and Turkey are getting it through economics (money).
FIBA confirms Spanoulis injury and 10 seconds on Google would show that. But no, you are such a colossal douche bag and moron that you are mentally incapable of it.

Of course you would.
1. You have never seen Spanoulis play.
2. You have never seen a Euroleague game.
3. You are an NBA only fan.
[B]4. You in truth, don't even know who Vassilis Spanoulis even is.[/B]
He's not 6-11. Don't be a complete moron.
