Protagonists All the details not to lose anything: the
rivals, the referees and the programming of TV of the first stage of
the match With the fifth place obtained in Premundial de
Neuquén second mundialista participation reached his after Argentina
' 90. One is a renewed establishment - Becker, Walcott and
Nelcha- that its power in a very seasoned attitude sustains, in the
shots of three points of their goleador Víctor David Diaz, in the
dominion which they show under the hoops the experienced Carl Herrera
and the pivot Richard Lugo, and in the power and ability of their new
star went away: Oscar Torre, who had a gracious participation in
the last season of NBA playing for Houston. From the South
American of Maracaibo, in 1997, he does not gain to Argentina and
equipment to him with which comes to lose resoundingly in Super the 4
of Rosary by 121 to 58. Their loose points are the lack of
intensity to defend the 40 minutes, certain tendency to the tactical
indiscipline and the decrease of potential when their holders must
rest, specially the pivots. Anyway, with the office and the lack
of obligation to win in the debut - its goal is to win to Nueva
Zelanda- can be transformed into a difficult rival because it counts
on much experience. A thing is its past and another its present.
History guarantees that it is one of selected the more winners:
it in the last participated in the end six world-wide ones, of
which it gained one, the one of 1982 in Colombia. Before it had
obtained the 1967 title, in Uruguay. Also it shone always in the
Olympic Games, where it obtained two gold medals, four of silver and
three of bronzes. The present time, however, mark that its new
generation is not of the best ones and than arrives at Indianapolis
after obtaining to the last seat - fifth qualifying one of the
European. It is characterized by one cold winning mentality, the
high stature and the effectiveness in triples. Its star is
Andrei Kirilenko, the eaves that finished with very good statistic in
NBA playing for Utah Jazz: 10 points and 7,3 bounces in 26
minutes of average by party. Also it excels the office of the
base Vassili Karassev, the shot of the escort Zakhar Pachutine and the
experience of the wing-pivot Sergei Panov. Their weak aspects
are the lack of ductility of the pivots, the excess in the shots of
three points and certain disorientation when it is pressed in the
exit. It is the surprise and the incognito of the Group.
Its classification in the Australian Continent was unexpected
because it won to a great one like lost Australia after having, in
history, 36 of the 37 confrontations. It only was in a World-wide one before, in the one of
Spain in 1986, but it was because its continent had two seats then
that match was disputed with 24 equipment. In the friendly ones
it won to Yugoslavia, but it lost with France and Lituania, that do
not go to the World-wide one. But as antecedent it has his participation in the Olympic
Games of Sydeny 2000, where although one was not brilliant, it added
experience. Its game is very athletic and quick, but something
innocent as far as the technique. It is a frontal, foreseeable
equipment. Their figures are the Sean pivot Mark, who acts in
Miami Heat; the emblematic Mark Diekel, formed in the Nevada
University the Fertile valleys and their new star is Pero Cameron,
leader and captain of the group, a dangerous player and of good shot
that shone in the last friendly. They call the Tall to them
Blacks because some similarity with the All Black of rugby looked for.
