Nice feat, morale-boosted by the way. I hope they can repeat this achievement against team Italy, Germany and Australia in the Olympics.

The odd they gave Nigeria was too much, some one that played the game in favour of Nigeria with good money should be swimming on money now. The betting company really underestimated Nigeria ability.

You don't know indeed

Innocent diosporans trying to salvage a country that doesn't care

Judging by your username, everything surely must have a perverted twist to it

Carparts:
You mean America vs America because 95% of those Nigerian team are born or raised as Americans or live in America

So ?

Prenonjebose:

Very correct. Having players that can do the 3 pointers for a change gives a lot of hope. Having 2 to 3 players who are good in outside perimeter throws is very valuable

Exactly. We’ve never lacked guys with strength and agility within the box. We’ve just never had excellent world class 3 point shooters to make a complete squad.

how and why?

A basketball team roaster is of 15 players. 2012 Olympics team had Jamal Olasewere,Alade Aminu,Olumide Oyedeji, Alfarooq Aminu and Gani Lawal.

USA is a far stronger team, Rome wasn't built in a day. We know the NBA, what's the name of Nigeria's local basketball league? You have to factor in all these.

of course, I got you on this.

NFF get players though not top quality yet all round

But coach na the major issue

. Yes, coach is the major issue for NFF

Wow, nice one.

saajus:
I appreciate our boys but it's a friendly game. I watched the extended highlight and discovered USA didn't play hard at all. I am also skeptical about 3-point dependent teams. It's not always repetitive cos there will be some games that it won't just drop. What next when they don't drop. I've not watched a lot D'Tigers games, so I don't know if they have something else to show if 3 points are not dropping

USA did not play hard because they don't play hard

If you check the comments on YouTube you did see what USA fans where saying..

This loss is bad for the USA

Don't think otherwise!

Buffalo2:

We need to get rohr out or pinnick out


The corruption is just too much!

Former captains Al-Farouq Aminu and Ike Diogu watched the game together. They captioned the picture, "Watching what we built".

Gabe saw the picture and replied, "My brothers".

A US journalist asked Gabe why he had that name, "Nnamdi" on his jersey. Gabe said that he went back home and he introduced himself to somebody as Gabe. The person asked, "What is your name"? and he said, "Vincent". The person asked again and he said that his name was Gabe Vincent. The person looked at him as if he was crazy and asked again, "What is your name"? so he said, "Nnamdi" and the person shook his hand and said "Nice to meet you".

Since then he has used Nnamdi on his jersey whenever he is playing for Nigeria and Vincent on his jersey when he is playing in the US.

Laughable. The 2012 team was very dear to me and I watched the game when US blew us out.. Victor Skinn the point guard of that team is a close friend to my best buddy from their days at George Mason. Well whatever makes you sleep better.

It's the Pinnick first. Once he's out, Rohr will follow naturally. A bunch of fantastically corrupt fellows

greypencils:
And who are the players USA want to include? Kahwi? Harden? Jamal Murray? Anthony Davis? Kyrie Irving? They are all injured. Steph Curry won't play because he is preparing for a comeback with Klay Thompson next season. You should also know that Nigeria too is not fielding it's best. You can imagine a team that include Giannis, Bam and Oladipo, they will rule the world, they can only be second best to the best of the best of team USA, the likes of Curry and Lebron.

How far? Your Nigerian basketball team got trashed by ordinary Australian boys.
Didn't I tell you that friendlies matches don't matter and that teams step up their game in Olympics?
The Nigerian basketball team is no match for being olympics, they will get trashed.

mysticwarrior:
the Americans played that game with intense seriousness, the USA will consider it as an injury to their pride and reputation to loose to an African country.

hope you are watching the basketball game,when I told you it’s only nigeria that takes friendly like do or die,I was roasted here...oya make dem win nau
