Yao Ming and friends fail again, but this time it was against the Greeks of Spanioulis. Greece was in lead since the early seconds of the match, setting an advantage that reached the 24 points. China upcoming from the lockers was extremely dissimilar, mainly for the dragons’ giant Yao who scored 16 points, helping his team in closing the gap with Greece’s basketball jerseys.

The deficit was around 10 points, in the peak of the Asian come back into the game’s score after the half time, but Vasilis Spanioulis’ performance of the match, with 19 points (13 in the 2^nd quarter) drew a border line to China’s finishing who were late by couple of dozens points before the 3^rd shift..

At the end it was 91-77! Greece will face Argentineans; the blue and white striped, will definitely be betting on their defensive strategies. Both capable of scoring for short and long range, sport news are already setting the public mood for a spectacular game: it’s a must win for all the qualifiers now; we are on the quarter finals of men basketball tournament. Either in China or abroad, this is a game that shouldn’t be missed, especially with sports betting sites working “overtime”.

“Organizers of the October 15 U.N.-backed “Blog Action Day” said about 15,800 sites had signed up and were offering ideas to millions of people via blogs, or online diaries, ranging from planting more trees to how to recycle plastics.

“Our aim is to get everyone talking towards a better future,” according to www.blogactionday.com.

The blogs are a new sign of concern about the environment, reflected in everything from a UN summit about climate change last month to the award of the Nobel Peace Prize to former US Vice President Al Gore and the UN climate panel on Friday.”

China faced Czech Republic in the last group’s game, a game to fix the group’s standings. Leading from the beginning till the end, China’s ladies were a bit concerned about facing their opponents, after being beaten twice in practice games.

Unusually, Europe’s team wasn’t too much into the game, with only 35% from close range and 26% from the wide arc, giving the host nation a chance to lead the sport from the very 1^st minute until the final whistle: 79-63

Many Chinese ladies scored with double figures, raising their team into the final 8.

Belarus is known to be stubborn, and the game will be much anticipated. I bet it’s going to be real hot in the stadium as both teams are known to be fighters, not quitters!

Basketball tickets are almost out, that’s being the case for every Chinese game, and sports news are starring and headlining the dragon’s ladies in order to encourage them; China is trying to show the world its modern and civilized image!

As ferocious as the men’s team, ladies of the United States are showing no kindness against any team, giving everything they got to crash any opponent. This time, it was New Zealand’s time to get on knees.

96-60, a diversity of 36 points took the undefeated in group B and 3 times champion into the quarter finals in what’s expected to be a trouble-free game against Koreans.

Kiwis that were forced into 21 turnovers couldn’t stop the waves of offensive strength and smashing into their rim; 4 basketball jerseys from US ladies scored in double figures: Tina Thompson reached 15, Katie Smith 13, Seimone 12 and Catchings 11. Promising young Center Fowles added 8 points and 6 rebounds to support her team mates.

Anne Donovan, Yankees coach expressed her thrilled attitude towards her team, especially when it comes to the player’s concentration from the 1^st seconds until the last ones, despite the score’s difference. 

Looking at former results in Beijing’s Olympics, the USA looks much more trustful, and is definitely a winning bet in this game. Basketball tickets are almost sold out for the next games to come; sports news is highly contributing in sales, due to their effect on TV viewers and readers.

In a way to make up their losses in quarter finals, both American sisters were willing to bring back the gold with them for a 2^nd consecutive time after Sydney’s 2000.

Spain’s Anabel Medina and Virginia Ruano weren’t so tough to beat! They

gave their opponents an easy game allowing them to leave Beijing with a gold medal.

6-2  6-0 score declared Serena Williams and Venus Williams as women tennis champions on double. Beijing’s Olympics isn’t so frustrating for Serena and Venus who weren’t up to the level during the singles tour.

Betting sites and sports news were putting pressure on the American duo, whose performance wasn’t as usual… luckily, they responded in the best possible way:

We’re back to back, and that’s our 2^nd successive!

Unbeaten and dominating Spaniard Rafael Nadal, just topped the tennis world ranking. After winning the French open and Wimbledon, the Spanish is now being crowned as the tennis tournament winner of the Beijing’s Olympics. thousands of spectators were filling their seats many hours before the start, to witness the final event of men’ tennis tournament.

6-3  7-6  6-3 a clear supremacy against Chile’s Fernando Gonzalez who saved 3 match points, only to postpone the inevitable.

The 22 years old Spanish will be designated as the world leader in tennis ranking, putting an end to Roger Federer’s domination for the past 4 and half years. Nadal is the first Spanish who brings home a golden reward in tennis.
