Turkey vs Brazil starting in 20 minutes. Hoping Sunderland's on one of the streams.
Predicting Brazil in three or four.

What has happened to Brazil? Do they even know what they are doing over there. voleiazzuro, please explain to me what was said during every timeout in the Brazil huddle. I think it is time for Jaque and Dani Lins and Thaisa and Fe Garay to hang it up. There is no way with a performance like this they will even medal in Rio. Scrap whatever system they are running and go back to what worked in '08 and '12. You only have 2 years left until the Olympics. Now is not the time to experiment. Did I see a defender in middle-middle, and not playing shaded to the right on that one Turkey hitter, who always hits there? 12-1 in aces? Do they even practice SR? Or maybe it is just jet lag. Ridiculous.

Ze Roberto is the worst 3 time Olympic gold medal coach I have ever seen in my life.

China beat Belgium 3-1 without playing Zhu Ting and Hui Ruoqi. I still think it's interesting that the winner of Group 2 gets to play in the Final six even though they might not have what it takes to compete against other teams in Group A that unfortunately did not qualify. For example, the USA could beat Belgium, but they are back home now while Belgium is playing in the final round. I guess it's a great way to make other teams more competitive, but I don't see how it's fair.

Belgium has a great young generation and is a really good team; they won bronze at Euros last year (beating Serbia and Italy, lost in 5 to hosting Germany). I'd like their chances against Team USA on its current form. |

I am currently watching the replay of Turkey and Brazil. I am thinking to myself. What if USA ran the bic or pipe whatever you want to call it in their system? I believe it would have helped them tremendously because Turkey and Brazil are running it every other play as I am watching. Gözde Kırdar from Turkey is fun to watch. She comes out of that back court with power. That could be Larson, Robinson, and Hill. Etc. Damn you GM2...  |
