we really werent expecting 2 win, we have 2 face it, true we have the best team in Asia other than China, but we are still so far away from the rest of the world powers in BBall. im sure we'd do well against new zealand and aussies but teams like the germans, serbs, args, french, americans, italians, lithuania will always be better than us, even though the best lebanese player fadi el khatib would have no problems playing in teams like that, voted best asian player, im sure he can do averagely in the NBA.
