I will not fall into the trap of looking beyond round, many are speculating that are making their way to the end and I find a large error. I'm always more cautious, I know, do not get wet easily on issues that matter to me as the case, so we play first against the Greeks and we'll see what happens next.
To Greece is paying off your hand, if they try to make us believe in the English press that the Greeks were left to us is not to be a hoax. The Greeks were allowed to lose (because they did) not have USA on the way to the end, the problem is that they thought that France would win in New Zealand and would face them in round, not us, that if they have gone wrong, but its purpose was fulfilled when they lost.
Saturday will be a game of emotions, the Greeks have the will and not for less, we have missed in recent competitions in which we have faced, World first was in 2006 that the work over at the end (after I tell the story Messina said in a broadcast) and later in Europe in 2007 and 2009, ie going out to modern, from minute 1.
Particularly, I'm afraid this circumstance because ours do not show any aggressiveness only Rudy seems to be stuck in the game, the lack of blood in some players is alarming, for example, Marc, that if we do not by numbers We can complain but it needs a speck of aggressiveness, to go through the hoop with power and desire, we can actually do what we have seen it in the NBA what happens then? Ricky is another that is not giving all which may in itself, may walk down to the responsibility of being the point guard and being in court 29 minutes per game (best), when he injured Calde many said they would be better for the game in Spain, including myself seen seen in the friendlies, but time has taken away the reason to many, Calde is very important both on the pitch and in the locker room. Jorge is devoted to its recent years, opening and pulling. Llull is not physically well and it shows in his game, lack of confidence and determination. Navarro is like the Guadiana, comes and goes but it is true that there is little to be criticized for failing despite things that never fails (free kicks, triple only ...).
The bench is another problem of selection, have not contributed in big games, because against Lebanon and Canada if they did but that I do not it. And the fault is Scariolo, you can not do the rotations he does, block, leaving a second unit without a reference in attack, we swipe normal lead points to get the starting five, no one is who is responsible for ball when it burns, it is also slow to mister ideas, does not react nor trust has managed to fill a Victor Claver each time you focus the camera has a knowing stare that do not have it for nothing and that San Eme, without being used all what it should, has removed the post. It is opportunistic, but I miss Pepu variants, in defense, their confidence in every player, I know, is not the time but what I feel. Collectively we have been making the same mistakes in the five games, the first and most serious is that we are not closing the rebound, even against Lebanon had problems and luckily Jackson Vroman went to the bank because what we had making me ashamed, are the problems of playing a small forward despite Rudy is the best rebounding team. The second is the defense, is not always seeing the aggressiveness of the view that any time we stole the ball.
I do not know, I see many things I do not like and give me a bad feeling about tomorrow, hopefully it is that and see what we all want, our selection of always, defending, steals, runs and does a nice and simple basketball ... That is what I expect tomorrow. ----------------------------------------------

Regarding the anecdote Messina and was told who said Papaloukas. We select the final in Beijing, Greece had won to the U.S. and many journalists called the players to talk to them for the feat achieved, the celebration and interviews are lengthened and many did not rest too as debian. The truth is that these things are thought.
