Rudy Watch: Game 2

Kitten_tiny by Dave on Comment 1038 comments

A reminder that Spain vs. China will be televised tonight at 1:45 a.m. Pacific on MSNBC.  Believe it or not, I have obligations at that time (and no, not sleep...welcome to my crazy life) so I wont' be able to watch the game live but I will TiVO it and bring a recap sometime Tuesday morning.  In the meantime, consider this a Gameday Open Thread for all of your night owls (or morning/afternoon owls considering what continent or island you dwell upon).

China needs to use American time zones

Sure there will be complaints about how the circadian rhythm of the chinese people won’t match the new, better American defined time of day, but that’s only a small price to pay for our ability to watch Rudy at a reasonable hour. It’s not like they can even see the Sun through the smog in Beijing.

The street lights is on.

I, for one, am looking forward...

... to USA v. Spain, but today’s two matchups will suffice for now.

I am looking forward to seeing if Rudy comes out all geeked up for that one. It should be his best showing.

Watching Germany against Greece right now

Man that’s pretty ugly. Germany played well in the first quarter until about 21-21, then got outplayed in the second. Now down by 11 at halftime. Greece gets easy baskets inside after setting good picks, Germany shoots from outside (at around 50%, the only reason they are still in the game). Papaloukas and Diamantidis are so big and Germany’s (point) guards so small that sometimes a nominal PF like Nowitzki or Jagla has to defend the ball handler.

Odenied: Coach, I promise I wasn't running hard ...

by Norsktroll on Aug 12, 2008 12:18 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Uah, ugly

Germany now down by 20 after the third. They couldn’t even manage to foul when they wanted. Almost no 2 point field goals. Both teams with over 10 turnovers. Mhm, what might be wrong if a 5’11 PG defends a 6’7 PG?

Odenied: Coach, I promise I wasn't running hard ...

by Norsktroll on Aug 12, 2008 12:54 AM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well, the scrubs managed to keep it respectable in the 4th, losing by 23 and preventing a complete blowout

Greece played much better than against Spain, but Germany made it very easy for them, getting the good players quickly in foul trouble and constantly letting mismatches and bad boxouts happen. Somehow Germany traditionally plays bad against the aggressive defense and tall players of Greece. I can’t remember more than a few wins ever. So it’s not the end yet, the game against China will decide who advances.

I was snorting around the in-demand section of Comcast looking for the Olympic BB channel...

.......................... no such lock.

When I was channel-surfing this evening I did see that they’re going to rebroadcast the entire 1977-78 Blazers championship series on Comcast SportsNet (ch. 37) next week—one game a night, starting Tuesday. I didn’t hear a time, but I reckon Dave or somebody will be on the case.

I’m starting to wonder if staying up to 2 am for a game start is the brightest thing I’ve ever done.

DirecTV is SUPPOSED to have one, but I couldn’t find it. Maybe it’s for HD-only subscribers?

I am a caveman living in the past with my regular ol’ TV set. I feel so small inside :-(

Its 10-9 Spain. Yao had a monster jam on Pau followed by a 3 by Rudy. If you guys are on delay I’ll stop doing updates from the future.

Now 11-10 China. Tough draw to start for China (US then Spain). Greece/Germany/Angola are going to seem like a walk in the park by comparison.

Now 12-11 Spain.

Spain the much better team, will lose, alleviating the tension from the Asian world, and will save face later with an apology and praise of the China National team..
