Brazil just beat Spain by 88-82. We're probably facing Argentina in the QF and if we can beat them (which will be extremely difficult, the Argies have a great team), we might face the USA in the semis.
In terms of which team to face in the next phase it was better to lose to Spain, and there are people saying Spain let Brazil win, but I don't care, I'm proud of this team, showing great sportsmanship and respect to the games.
Brazil has great tradition in Basketball but for too long we have been a total joke, it is really inspiring to see that we have a team to be respected once again. I take my hat off to our coach Magnano, what a legend.
