The 2010 FIBA Basketball World Championship Turkey

[ataman5]

The 2010 FIBA World Championship will be hosted by Turkey from August 28 to September 12, 2010. It is co-organized by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), Turkish Basketball Federation and the 2010 Organizing Committee. It is considered as prestigious a competition as the Olympic Basketball Tournament.

For the third time since 1986, the World Championship will have 24 competing nations, an increase from 16. As a result, the groups are each playing in different cities, with the knockout round being hosted by Istanbul.

The draw for the Championship took place on December 15, 2009 in Istanbul. Teams were drawn into four preliminary round groups of six teams each. Teams will then play a round robin schedule, with the top sixteen teams advancing to the knockout stage.

I'm sure if Canada had Joel Anthony, the result would've been different.

[Martti.]

Axel13, they did. Sofo even dunked on him.

[Axel The Great]

Oh wow, not even Joel Anthony could stop Greece. I take what I said back.

[George7]

Greece- Serbia 74-73. The game stopped before the end and will never continue.

A huge brawl happened inside the court!!!
Teodosic and Fotsis fight and the others wanted to separate them but then Krstic started punching everybody! And Sofo Then Keselj and Tsartsaris rumbled while NeMad was still punching everyone. Bouroussis tried to stop him and the first took a chair and hit him in his head!

Maybe i should posted it in the wrestling topic?

[NovU]

On international stage, a brawl? I say ban all those players from FIBA this year.

Greece just SMASHED Canada 123-49!

Pffft... Exhibition match where Greeks played like it's the last game on earth while Candian wanted to rest since they just got to Europe. We beat Serbia after that game, when Greeece got beat up by them literally.

[George7]

It's not our fault if Krstic was on a mood to kick asses!

The brawl was over and then he throw a metal chair to the head of Bouroussis,who was out of the squad injured at the bench! and then ran away as he chased him full of blood!

Serbians have all the fault. They started this brawl,and after things got cooler they restarted it again! Krstic should be banned for a long time!

And you guys don't stand a change whatever the circumstances

You pray for a ban in order for this ultra fit team break up?(Yeah I'm talking about Greece)
