I haven't paid much attention to the FIBA tourney, more interested in US Open Tennis, Euro Basket and the return of NCAA football. I was surprised that Brazil crashed out in group play without much effort considering the beatdown they just laid on everyone in the Pan Am Games; why show up for that competition and sandbag this one? With no USA, no Brazil, it feels like Canada is ready to curb stomp the remaining competitors.
Canada plays Venezuela on one side and Argentina plays Mexico on the other. I just don't see how Venezuela hangs with Canada nor how the winner of the other semi could hang with Canada. But the games still have to be played and Argentina has plenty of veteran savvy (re: old guys). Hang a Maple Leaf on it, this tourney looks done to me.
