Very close 1st half

In 2nd Nenê got 4 fouls early and the problems started.
VC, AI, Duncan and Brand was the key players.
USA 61 X 29 Brazil

Varejão Dunk over O'Neal's head and Alex(1,90cm)blocked Duncan!!!

Congratulations for USA attitude and commitment.

I liked Brazil's play... Obviously the team suffered after Nenê went to the bench early...

Duncan played very well... had a great dunk off an Iverson behind-the-back pass...

Anderson Varejão got a dunk on Jermaine too... (Y)

hehe

no surprise here...espically that USA lost last year they must want that back..but i am surprise that AI only had 10 pts...

by **TamuraBR** on Thu Aug 21, 2003 3:39 pm

But AI was really good playing defense. And VC is back.

I hoped more by O'Neal.

Martin's prescence on the floor was great. Just him being out on the floor playing hard really helped in the 1st half. He had a nice block and a monster dunk.

That dunk by Varejao on Jermaine O'Neal was sick, the Brazilian's were pretty good.

by **TamuraBR** on Thu Aug 21, 2003 10:42 pm

Alex (1,90m) blocked DUNCAN!!!

by **Nel** on Thu Aug 21, 2003 11:14 pm

The block was from behind though... Varejao is sick!! J.O got a facial!! Brazil has a lot of potentitial i wish they still have Oscar Shmidt. (i dont know the spelling)

I believe the best thing about the game was the fact that we (Brazil) stayed either ahead or close behind while Nenê was playing.

He is evolving into a powerful defensive force in the post. Sometimes, people couldn't even reach the basket when attempting dunks early on. And Nenê even became a force in the offense, equaling the output of Tim Duncan.

When Nenê scored his fourth foul, everything went downhill for us.

Although I do not believe we could have won, I do believe we could have stayed about 10 behind, instead of 34, if Nenê had managed to stay under control in the foul department.

Also, if Marbury can't play and Leandro is given the opportunity to start for Phoenix, he will do very well.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the performance of our team, but we have also shown our greatest deficiency. If guys can tip Nenê off balance and get him to foul early, our team loses a great deal of energy and defensive power.
