I watched their first match against Tunisia, They are stronger than the Tunisians, they started very well by leading with 10 points margin but they nearly lost cos they looked so tired.
Strong point: Defence,attack and free throw weakest point: Long throw for 3 points. the Tunisia were not good on free throw but their 3 points throw is very good than the Nigerians.
I wish them good luck when they Lithuania which they beat during their recent qualifier in venezuela....Go for gold guys, you are the only hope for Nigeria this year, No football, Boxers out,table tennis singles our,canoeing out but outstanding, athletics not sure
if u attack my papa house, I'll retaliate but if you are peace loving,I will embrace you
