Japan 2006 Semifinal USA - Greece

[clutchcity25]

They might have lost, but Carmelo bust that ass.

[indankse]

and now they said Miami Heat is a Super Team with James, Bosh and Wade?? How Come??? nyahahahahaha.. Go Go Go Lakers..

[pekovic13pao]

Hey american boy You must correct something to your video.(Even 4 years have passed).

GREEK PLAYERS ARE NOT UNKNOWN.

Learn something because I know something that perhaps you don't know.

Theo Papaloukas was playing for a Greek team. Papaloukas? Who is this guy? The guy at 1.41(yeah you watch what you have watched in all this game.Our back) and 1.14 Learn now my friend that LA Lakers made an offer of around 30M in order to buy him. So think twice!!!!! WE ARE NOT UNKNOWN PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sportsfan4life88]

USA played horrible. Big upset

[Aggroberliner69]

@mica95streetlaw haha what about 2008, the U.S. has destroyed Greece!!!

[RoskoVasilev]

I have to admit that the way Greece played against the USA is the only way to defeat them but frankly, USA are 3 times better than GREECE!:D

[benandjohnnyfans]

Where is the U.S.A? is it a country? hehe

[fstavr]

Greece unknown players???

European Champions that year with all of them being European superstars...for christ

[armyinhell]

the song is good but the vid. suck hahahahahaha

[armyinhell]

USA forever!!

[labyrinthshadow]

Nice video !

That happens if you underestimate the enemy.

Especially the Greeks...

[kronos06sp]

spaaaiiinnnnnnnnnnnn

[fstavr]

tis manas sou :P

[sioux333]

well greece isnt exactly a pack of unkown players from a small country though. they went at the tournament as european champions and all the player are playing in the biggest european clubs with some of them being the best of europe in their position at the current year

[LeonAmarantos]

Greece: small country but enormous civilization & tradition!!!

[miltoshhhh]

@LeonAmarantos DN KERDIZEIS ST BASKET ME TN POLITISMO...!

[LeonAmarantos]

@miltoshhhh Σίγουρα όχι. Κέρδίζεις με καλή ψυχολογία ,αυτογνωσία και αυτοεκτίμηση.Δεν είναι μόνο μπράτσα η καλαθοσφαίριση.Μπράτσα έχουν και τα μουλάρια.Δεν είναι απλά ένα μάτσο νταγλαράδες.Είναι εκπρόσωποι του έθνους.Έτσι το βλέπω εγώ.

[LeonAmarantos]

@miltoshhhh Χρειάζεται σαφώς και διανοητική δουλειά για την επιτυχία (βλέπε τι έκανε η εθνική μας 40 δευτερόλεπτα πριν από το τέλος με 7 ποντούς πίσω από τη Γαλλία).

[sonicriot17]

elliniki omada basket gia panta reee

[nikoloudakisn]

All the USA's players are taking medicines tha help them ...... U know what I mean .... I'm waiting for u American idiots in the semi - final .........

[strboxer12]

lol there's something called olympic drug testing...Why haven't the U.S. failed them by now? Still jelous ur team is no match for the U.S.? And Greece just lost.

[MARIASALONIKIA]

wahahahah yeah right next joke!!Does the name MARION JONES ring a bell!!

[strboxer12]

she wasn't a basketball player i don't think..

[MARIASALONIKIA]

Why hadn't they detected MARION hmmmm.... the truth is out there somewhere like in X-files ahahaha!!

[strboxer12]

mabye they didn't hav drug testing back then...and why do u think U.S. players take drugs? Are we so good that you can't believe it so u say we take drugs? LOL.

[strboxer12]

USA: 93

Greece: 69

lol some ppl can't blieve this happened to their team they so thought was evenly matched with the U.S.

[MARIASALONIKIA]

what's even about 51 states in 1 country n greece 1 state lol!!well that is taken 4 granted so our guyz did not play as well as they could>>sofoklis did not do anything due to injuries!oh well...u won...so till next time beware 4 big sofo cause he will be in shape then!!Heyyyy last time I looked I was not a boy... oh boy!

[strboxer12]

i look forward to when sofo can play well, he has great potential, it's always conditioning problems for him though. Population doesn't matter, look, no one in the world has the top notch individual talent the U.S has, and that's 6.7 billion to the 300 million americans. But with that talent, u hav to be able to mesh it together, and they finally did it this year..If Greece had a billion more ppl their talent would all be limited..boy..lol

[stelmos]

- although can't be that objective. I'm Greek -

A question:

Why are the USA teams not willing to apply to the anti-doping test of WADA ?

Cordially

[stelmos]

Hey, wait.

You just misunderstood me. I didn't say that they are not the best! I'm a fan of Lebron James as well. It wasn't my intention to imply anything at all. I only had a question and I'd appreciate it if you could answer to me -if not, ok, np-, instead of accusing me of things I've never said.

Cordially!

[NTMIB]

Is amazing how you completely ignored "strboxer" statement. He said "i never heard they werent willing to apply, show me ur source"

You failed to give your sources which could mean you are making this up.

[kowalityjesus]

because marijuana stays in the blood system for up to 30 days...?

[gastrance]

HEY SHIT AMERICANS..PAOK RE

[Rwned]

usa has greece on a freakin leesh

[MARIASALONIKIA]

Leash or no leash we bite!!ahahahah stop using silly toys like leashes to make urselves feel secure from a lil Greece of 10 million!!Is that what all 51 states can come up 4 a super team!? come on!!

[strboxer12]

stop making excuses boy. We owned u. Even if ur population was the same as ours the score would be the same...b/c America is basketball country. No matter how many more ppl u hav in your country i don't see many being too much of an upgrade. I don't see China or India being the best at everything right? They hav the the highest population u say, lolololololololol. USA: 93 Greece: 69 lololololololol still sad aren't u?

[MARIASALONIKIA]

Greeks are quantity+quality unlike any other!!

Like the 300 from Sparta were enough if u know what I mean!!I am not a boy,lol!!!

And USA did not play b-ball it was strugglin all the time n the score was not even 100!!tut tut tut!

[strboxer12]

ok wat does Sparta hav to do with basketball. IF the USA was struglin then wat was Greece doing...Greece finished with a score 23 points lower. Spain:37. Greece's score wasn't even 70 lol! tut tut tut! Still in agony over Greece's whopping by the U.S. boy?

[mpleportals]

Basketball is not popular in China and India. China has twice as many golds as USA. India is good at cricket and other sports you don't play. Plus both countries have severe economic problems. Soviet Union (and sometimes Eastern Germany) always had more medals than US in past Olympics

[strboxer12]

ur kidding rite. Basketball is really popular in China. Kobe gets mobbed all over the place and some ppl say basketball has surpassed soccer in china. And wat matters about their gold medals? we're talking about basketball.

[mpleportals]

Also China is 3-4 times your population. You're 30 times as big as Greece. In Greece we don't celebrate when our team beats Faroe Islands,Luxemburg or Andora.

[strboxer12]

alas stop making excuses. I've seen no Greek player close to the same lvl of skill as U.S. players. Give 30 times as much Greek players, their upside is limited to that of or alittle better than Vasanolis Spanoulis. And countries like Andora and Luxemburg aren't good at basketball..some crazy europeans over recent years thought that europe was up to par with the U.S. in basketball, and we just proved the country greece wrong.

[strboxer12]

and in case u don't agree with me if u put together a team with the best players in europe u wouldn't beat the u.s....not when the best countries in europe at basketball got blown out..

[San4An]

fuck off panathas the greece mother fuckers are loozers as hell u kno that!!!!!!!!!!!

goo USA WE GOING TO THE END TORONTO RAPTORS FAN;D but i love nba all the players who plays in the league!

[rambomoore9999]

greece dont blame officials. sore losers.

[rambomoore9999]

fuck you panathas. you win one game against the usa 2 years ago!!!! and you think you can talk shit, well we win everytime we play greece so shut up. we kicked your ass again. so chop off your huge crooked greek nose and stick it up your ass

[panathas13ole]

to talk about the video who said that greek players are unknown?All the world knows them

[panathas13ole]

today there wasn't a revenge of USA because doped team,i mean American team and referees didn't want to win Greece but disqualify them something that is impossimple because greece will be certainly at the medals.when we go there we'll see who is better (with 50%-50% referees and not 79%-21% i hope)

[strboxer12]

lol officiatting doesn't erase 23 points. And there was no bad officiating..in international games there's barely any...Name key moments of bad officiating.

[TTBE55]

fuck off panathas

[voukefalas01]

The bad thing is even if we beat USA, we still gonna finnish 3rd in the group unless US lose from Spain as well! The crucial game is the quarterfinal. Probably we 'll play the 2nd team of the other group so it's gonna be tough. I prefer to lose tomorrow and play them again in the semis and beat them then.

[KRAV79]

That was a gift of Greece to Spain. Now lets see them what they can do against USA. Hope to see our team against USA on final game. And give them the chance to take their revenge.

[DAOCman11]

lol talk some more shit we just crushed china and yau and guss what the guys that won gold last year got there ass kicked by some country i dont even know lol and greece you lost to spain thats enough said right there. but i will give you one thing hard to play D when they have two guys who are over 7foot

[voukefalas01]

small country but great team. Maybe the greatest, the world has ever seen

[xeirades]

See u in beijin... Cowboys!!!!

[NafeesLACC]

great video, Good for Greece, sucks for USA, but anything that will quiet the arrogant USA basketball players is good.

[peterthecleaner]

ok lets see in beijin...if greece play the ideal defence(be sure we know how to defence USA) and also if greece use the attacking mentality of the last matches we can beat everything...greece is a team not some players

[JRode11]

Canada sucks we just killed them by like 60

[fermeriz]

You Lost.... Accept it...... Don't Cry

For the Olympics, remember what happened last time: Puerto Rico and Argentina Kicked USA's Ass

jajajaja

[strboxer12]

And we owned Argentina in 2006...And u just got owned by spain...

[NafeesLACC]

Greece played a shit game, but they played well against a powerful German Team.

[strboxer12]

wat about the game vs the USA hmmm?

USA: 92 Greece: 69

the 06 game was definitly a fluke. Greece is light years away from the U.S.

[Emfanever]

it hurt back then, didn't it?? Haha ,GREECE rocks

He who laughs last laughs best

[strboxer12]

which is the U.S. The game was over in the middle of the 2nd quarter.  It took us that little time to finish the little Greek team.

[benandjohnnyfans]

@strboxer12 and u r light years away from seriousness... hehe

[katsasssss]

omg guys admit that we beat u..don't say more excuses...we scored u 100points..that's a clear win

[hedikong]

Greece is just lucky NBA sent a not so ideal team back then. Things will be different this time.

[ManiacWOK]

uughh, what the fuck??? -_-, also yeah USA is going to smash every team this year, and Canada doesnt even qualify....ever.

[esportista195]

The author is ironic! Very good this video! They know why Greece was not champion against Spain, because after this game, they had not slept, the adrenalin for having profit were very great, had not obtained to rest, exactly they had been for the game and vocês they can see the errors that they commit.

[armthevoiceless]

Spain won Greece because, the spanish team had studied the greek "way" of playing and they could always be one step ahead. see the match, greece couldnt get a crossed pass across.

bad english :s

[esportista195]

O autor é ironico! Muito bom este vídeo! Sabem por que o grecia não foi campeã contra a Espanha, porque após este jogo, eles não dormiram, a adrenalina por terem ganho foi muito grande, não conseguiram descansar, mesmo foram para o jogo e vocês podem ver os erros que eles cometem.

[1234isthepassword]

Lol i think its hilariours that you are all saying america will go down this year and not even get bronze... guess who we didnt have back then? thats right our secret weapon his name is KOBE BRYANT.... and so you know im am not a laker fan im a hornet fan.

[Horoe]

Alright maybe you'll get bronze :D

[Toronto2245]

hahhahahah!!! u no usa is so confident their like 100% their gona win the gold medal this year... MY ASS!!!! They lost to an unknown team and at the olympics they have to face more than 5 of them... no chance their gona get bronze or under. GO CANADA!!!!!!!

[Alkob]

Americans , remember 2006 ?

The real Dream Team , the Greek team , your nightmare, is coming back...see you in Bejing...

[molonlave2010]

USA will beat us in the preliminary round, but in the gold medal round Greece will win it at the buzzer. he he he

[immssanchez]

Wheres those mother fuckers that said Greece was going to get gold? And the USA would get beat by SPAIN? You idiots arent talking shit now because USA is destroying every team that we play and you pussys are scared. Serves you right for talking shit on a team that has any individual player that could start on any team in the world. You international people need to quit talking shit on everything USA and get a life. We are obviously going to dominate every team to the Gold. Including Argentina.

[wizardcia]

USA will fart our balls. Even this year.

Its the underestimation that caused you to lose.

We won them, but we didn't won the finals. Thats enough for us. Victors know how to lose, you just keep winning all the time that some of your players were not playing.

Gay assholes, go back to your McDonalds.

[korrupt3d1]

I guess I'll see you there.

[negryo]

im french, i love basketball but i want to see a real dream team against europeans teams! garnett,bryant,iverson,kidd,du­ncan,paul,williams,stoudamire,­howard,james... i want see usa lose with his best players not with guys like kirk hinrich lol

So we ll see usa lose this summer in china... :)

BEAT USA BEAT USAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

[polychronio]

this sport is too easy for european.

[molonlave2010]

If so why does Sweden, England, Netherlands, Denmark, Portugal suck at it?

[sebban5]

i don´t like any of them but sience i´m European i´ll have to say GREECE RULES!!!!!!

[laxchip9]

hey do u just hate the U.S.A bc were good at basketball

(o and if we had koby bryant and ray allen and kevin garnett and paul prise)

we wouldof killed them

[iluvsuushi]

USA WILL KICK THERE ASS THIS YEAR

[dhmhtrhC]

they drank him the ass little americans

(ton hpiane ta kwloamerikanakia)

101-95

[europepexavi90]

Sorry,I forget another European team that is better than the US, it is Croatia.

[europepexavi90]

Grecee is not a small country, they have more history than the US. Greeks players are famous in Europe.

[europepexavi90]

European basketball will be better than American basketball forever. US players think that they're the greatest,but they're not. After that game, Americans realized what's the truth, US is weak against Europeans. They're are just one of many good Europeans teams. The best is Spain, world champion. Turkey, Lithuania, Italy, Russia, Slovenia, Serbia, Germany, France, are some other good teams. US vs Grecee was the most awesome game I ever watched. EURO=best players in the world. US=the worst.

[polychronio]

America is better than europe in basketball. but, Europeans don't care about this sport lol. It's too easy for europeans.

[joseisqt]

greece is weak

[mcmazerman]

too much words... greece 4ever

[armyinhell]

USA forever

[teriyum]

im sure USA will win in beijing..hands down.. at japan they lost because no one controls the team by experience even though they were led by wade,james and melo. and they were the youngest team in that tournament but now they have maturity with jason kidd in now plus kobe bryant.. USA Will dominate in beijing.

[Eksilewsh]

Pfff yeah right if they are unknown to the USA people that means nobody knows them?Who cares about your multinational country?Wake up poor(in mind)people you are not the center of the world...stop watching too much TV and open a book..btw there is no such thing as terrorism-the only terrorists are your governmental leaders who think they can rule the world...

[8INBY]

instead of tellin us to read a book and hating on us caz we're rich why don u and ur whteva poor country ppo go get a better education, grow sum more brains, learn how to use ppo from different places and cultures, and maybe one day u'll catch up like china is u dumb ignorant fuck

[Eksilewsh]

Ahahaha..."dumb ignorant fuck" tuh tuh...what manners,well you have some education immigrant's child...so you are THAT rich?that's why u abandoned your country...huh?and who on earth told you we want mixed cultures huh?Ah now i get it,that's why China has so many poors that work 24/7...because knows how to exploit and get money only for the same the governance.Gratz...

[8INBY]

yo just take one second to read what u wrote here..it didnt make no fuckin sense..probably only to urself..first u talk about immigrant child, ok i get it im a immigrants child and..? second where u come with im rich so i abandon my native country? and

because "knows how to exploit and get money only for the same government" needs a lil rephrasin for it to make sense

[Eksilewsh]

Omg...u told ur country is rich and that's the reason everybody hates u...ur words...and i replied IRONICALLY...an immigrant left his country for what other reason...?maybe cause he didn't have money to live???Thirdly,i mean that in China obviously there is exploitation...that's why most products around the world are made there in cheap prices...because workers are paid that cheap also and work long hours.

[PAOKtheo4]

Greece will not the players who are the well-known in the world but they are good. Greece is a team-play team and they play with passion and they don't give up the game with any difference between the score...

[PAOKtheo4]

Greece will not the players who are the well-known in the world but they are good. Greece is a team-play team nad the play with passion nad they don't give up the game with any difference between the score...

[SrustinLim]

Beijing, the United States will go undefeated.

Kobe would never let them lose. If they start losing in a game, he'll start dominating.

[apofteso]

you're right.

with Kobe, Kidd, Melo, LeBron and Howard USA Team will be the best after the original Dream Team 1992

Diamantidis - Papaloukas: greatest players in Europe... and greece players are not unknown in usa, spanoulis and koufos have played in nba and many others... the best basketball teams in europe are Greece-Spain but not Russia, Russia has 2-3 very good players like kirilengo but they are not better than Diamantidis, and Russia won by luck the eurobasket final with Spain.. and the Greek team Panathinaikos is the best basketball team in Europe with 4 euroleague cups and one world cup

[apofteso]

Sorry, pantazman, But Russia is european champion, not Greece. And what i meant is that Greece Players are unknown in USA.

Be quiet, guy, i remember the phenomenal Nick Galis and Papaloukas is the best european player by now.

;)

[pantazman]

greek basketball palyers are not unknown idiot! we are europeans champions and they are the greatest players in europe. this year they've taken most of the european awards.
