      Hope we will upset France (same wish in volleyball championship), don't care if we lose the rest

      France's best players may not play in this championship.

          dammit i wanted US in our group again

          it woulda been really good for Arsalan and possibly Haddadi to get another NBA contract.

          we can probably beat Egypt, do we have any chances against Brazil and France? i know Serbia and Spain we wont lol

              just arsalan kazemi, he's 24, got drafted by 76ers but doesnt have a contract yet, he's playing in iran now, going back to US in few months to see if he can get a contract


              haddadi, already played 4 yrs in NBA, but was too k00n goshad to learn anything and develop himself, so he's in china now...he's 27 i believe



              we have samad bahrami, who has been around for few years but i doubt he can get NBA interest, he's close to 30 i believe



              no one elese that i know of

                  God damn, why did we have to get such a hard group. Every team in our group is really good except Egypt.

                      meh he's good for Iranian standards but for world standards, he's not anything special. He has the speed, but his ball handling isnt that great.

                        If we hadn't drawn Brazil, and Ukraine instead of Serbia, chances for advancing would have been better.
