Yesterday just wasn't meant to be us to win. We could have won gold easily,and i mean easily. We could have even blown out China on its own home court. But yesterday we broke down under pressure in the last 2 minutes. It was a sad incident but it can be forgotten for the good.Comment

it's even sad watching iran killing kill taipei for 5th placed match because this is no match up, we should be playing for the finals now and not this.
Jordan got lucky because they did not play like this at all in the whole tournament like they did vs. Iran who had a poor ass game.

Iran beats Taipei 98-66 and shall play the winner of Japan-Lebanon for 5th placeComment

so whats the story of the mustache thing the team does?Comment

Good win. Thank you guys. Sad that its not the right place.
By the way it's pretty odd for a team going on a 8-1 run in a tournament and just ending up 5th!!Comment

Jordan just defeated Philippines with 75-61 in the semifinal and thus reached the final. I actually think they have a decent chance of winning it all, regardless of their opponents being China or Korea.
But damn, if we would have played a little bit better yesterday we would have been there instead...

China will demolish them. We can wait and see.
It's only Iran who gets into trouble with Arabs, China doesn't pity these teams. They kick ass really hard. Their only problem in Asia is Iran which is now a non-issue for them. Their whole preparation in summer has been how to control Iran. Go read their forums and basketball blogs.Comment

Ok, no matter whether Iran is favourite or not, They always fail. So I already know that I won't have to lose my time following Olympic games next yearOriginally posted by Irannn View PostComment

In the 5th place match, Iran destroyed Lebanon by 25 points again. As the commentator said, its such a shame that Iran placed 5th with a 9-1 record. The closest anyone has come to Iran was Korea within 17 points, and the most margin was 94 points against uzbekistan. We lost one lousy game to Jordan, when our boys had a bad day. I really hope China destroys them, just because they got too c0cky right after beating Iran.Comment

FINAL:
China - Jordan 70-69 FT
Pretty exciting final, but this China team would never have won this tournament if it wasn't for the home court. China almost collapsed in the end, even though most calls went their way. But some bad decisions taken by Jordan in the last minute gave China the win. You gota feel sorry for Jordan, in my opinion they deserved it more.
The worst part is that Iran would had defeated this China team pretty easily.

Yup exactly what i was thinking, this Chinese team was giving away too many turnovers for a so called "good" team. Iran wouldve easily beaten China, as they had size over Jordan and better shooters. Just a day of bad luck cost us this tournament. Like i said before The closest anyone came to Iran(other than Jordan) was Korea who lost by 17 points.Originally posted by Raptor View PostFINAL:

Sad to say this is pretty true
Our NBA player messed up big time against Jordan.
Who else agrees that Arsalan was the best player on the team?

As far as I am concerned we lost to haddadi more than Jordan. With his NBA experience he should have carried us thru the tournment but he failed. He needs to rethink the way he plays the game. What a waste.IRI = FAILEDComment

While Haddadi did perform poorly in the game against Jordan, its not fair to place the blame on him. He did carry the team at times.Originally posted by persian-eagle-13 View Post
I think the most dissapointing performance was by Kamrani, he was under performing as a point guard, and always took rash decisions.
I also would place the blame on the coach, for not starting a superb kazemi and bahrami against Jordan. He thought we would easily rout through jordan with our subs which is why he didnt put bahrami in until the second half.
We have a great generation of players, haddadi and co should atleast last us another 5-7 years...while kazemi is only 20 and hes such a bright talent.Comment
