Re: 2008 Olympic Basketball Tournament for Men
My Predictions (I think they play for all the spots right?):
Gold: USA
Silver: Argentina
Bronze: Spain
4th: Lithuania
5th: Russia
6th: Greece
7th: Croatia
8th: China
9th: Germany
10th: Iran
11th: Aussie
12th: Angola
I'll get to see Team USA and Lithuania in warm-up action next week (both against the Turks), can't wait!

I don't think they will, at least those games aren't listed in the official schedule. It makes sense because those games for the fifth or eleventh place are totally meaningless.
Edit: I just looked for it, here are the rules:
- Fifth-placed teams from both groups are ranked 9th-10th by basis of their records.
- Sixth-placed teams from both groups are ranked 11th-12th by basis of their records.
- The eliminated teams at the quarterfinals are ranked 5th-8th by basis of their preliminary round records

The Aussies might be able to make some noise, finishing in the top seven. Iran will finish last. They have been struggling against the D-Leaguers. Angola will finish 11.

Re: 2008 Olympic Basketball Tournament for Men
Just my predictions, doesn't mean that's how I rank the teams in terms of talent. I am probably underrating the Aussies a bit, but I also think people are underrating the Iranian team. The team's young and athletic, has played together for awhile, and can definitely take some teams by surprise. Hamed Hadadi will give teams trouble in the paint, I made a thread about him after seeing his performance at the Asian Championships:

Then there's that other freak of nature Rouzbahani. Really don't know much about him though.
