Charlie68 Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 I missed the game - whay was spain so upset that Brown called a timeout with 23 seconds left - I dont get it- Is it just becasue they had the lead? http://cbs.sportsline.com/olympics/story/7616971
Rubes Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 I dunno, I must be missing something there....the US led by 10 points with 23 seconds left, and they called a timeout. So? It's not like Spain had any chance of winning at that point, right?
ForbiddenDonut Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Spain's coach was upset, thought Brown was stringing the game out to rub salt in the wound. Truth is, if the Spaniard's weren't still fouling while down 10 with 23 seconds left Brown wouldn't have called the TO. BTW...watched this game with Canadian announcers, they were merciless with Brown, saying his arrogance in stringing the game out was an example of why the world hated Americans.
jester43 Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 i didn't see the game, but i'd say that comment tells more about the announcers than it does about larry brown. ah well, too many cool friendly happy canadians out there to worry about a couple of nudniks.
