That was a clutch play from Okogie. The team needed those perfect free throws from him

Talk about hustle. Way to set up a nice 4th quarter battle. Great defence by our guys. They just need to be more disciplined when making field goals and passes.

Jordan Nworah's error have been redeemed by Josh Okogie. It's a tie ball game
Re: Nigeria Basketball Thread - Onward To The Afrobasket by Nobody: 11:07am On Aug 31, 2019
We need to be more disciplined! Be cognizant of the shot clock. Make clear passes. Look in all directions!
Re: Nigeria Basketball Thread - Onward To The Afrobasket by goldfish80(m): 11:07am On Aug 31, 2019
Ike Diogu could come in handy this last quarter. I want to think his time out @the bench will have him recharged for the 4th quarter.

Time for Diogu to close this off like he did with Montenegro

Lead back down to 3. This when discipline is needed. No more crazy shots. We need clear passes.

At a point in the last quarter, Nigeria was leading with eight point. And we lost the lead. Bad

Exactly. I expected the coach to call a time out when they were up 8 points with 6mins on the clock. Better game management at that point, they would have won.

What the hell is wrong with this team. Can’t they not play without fouling ridiculously. Too many turnovers

Then instruct your skillful guard to take over the time management.

We couldn't match Russia's 3 point shooting. Too many silly turnovers. Missed open lay ups. Bad shot selection. Youthful exuberance from the younger ones. These are what cost us the game.

Argentina is even deadlier with 3ptr compared to the Russians ... So you can see we are in for some harsh realities.

If we end in 3rd place, what will happen to us?
Re: Nigeria Basketball Thread - Onward To The Afrobasket by Nobody: 12:22pm On Aug 31, 2019
With this many turnovers, I don’t know if we’ll manage the Argentines. I’m hoping for the best with this team, but it ain’t looking too good so far.
