iran better dismantle Jordan on Friday!! Jordan always gives iran problems in basketball, they are like Bahrain in Football when they play with us. I wish we had AK with the team, the team can use his leadership and experience. HH is just hopeless right now!!

lol wtf?! HH has been head and shoulders above all of the opponents so far in this tourney and no not just his height advantage but also his game...

Man you're high!!

What do u expect from the kid?? He's beasting and dismantling every single opponent on the Asian stage. What do you expect him to do ??? average 40 & 20 or shoot like 80% from the field???

No wonder why Iranians never deserve to have a good representative in a highly regarded league. He's the only reason most around the US even know about Iran's basketball
For god's sake he's the only Asian player in the NBA, show some class & respect...

No i respect him for giving his best in NBA, and putting iran on the basketball map!! there is more to basketball then numbers, it is the little things that matter, they way he is still getting beat on the dribble penetration to the basket just by watching the highlights of the games up to now, the way he still can't completely dominate the boards on both ends of the floor shows that he has not learned much from his time in nba!! he is just a big, tall player, basketball IQ is very average at best.

[EKBATAN]

ah wtf....we better not lose to Jordan.

such a long tournament

[persian-eagle-13]

^^i hope 2 years ago does not repeat tomorrow, TM was in the same situation 2 years ago and CHOCKED against Jordan and finished the tournament with a record of 8-1 in 5th place!!! while 2nd team jordan finished 5-4, 3rd team korea finished 7-2 and forth team Philippine finished 6-3

[EKBATAN]

Terrible Format

[Iran Champs]

Wow Asian basketball!

[Ab-Gosht]

iran wins by 24p according to bookies

[Hosseini]

Playing against Jordan is all mental, that's why we lost last time. The players just need to clear their minds and play the best they can.
