1. Hey - you get caught up in traffic - you get run over. If it ain't you - soccer sign up over there.

2. Why is the American down there?
Won't they let me shout "fuck" and "shit" on American courts?

Maybe he should learn Portuguese...

3. you can make fun of the American but
the Chinese players are out of freaking control.

They had towel boys running up and trying to fight the Brazilian players.

4. A team takes on the personality of the coach
especially if that coach comes from the country that invented and dominates the sport you play and love. Believe me, that coach had a lot to do with what you saw there.

5. Number 8 and number 4 in the black jerseys were sneaky fighters.

7. Weren't those jerseys ill-fitting anyway?
Knowing nothing about sports, I just think it would be difficult to do anything in a way over-sized outfit. (wink)

10. Looks to me like the Brazilian faked a dive in order to trip/foul the Chinese.
Play the crucial moment over and pause it and you will see that the Brazilian is already going down before the two make contact.

Standard basketball dirty tricks, but maybe they do not play that way in China.
