Earlier today Argentina’s men’s basketball team got the better of South American foe Brazil 82-77 to advance to the semifinals for the third consecutive Olympics. Familiar names to NBA fans led the way for Argentina as Luis Scola scored 17, Manu Ginobili and Carlos Delfino each added 16, and Andres Nocioni had 12.
Leandro Barbosa tied for the team lead with 22 points for Brazil, including 4 three-pointers. One of those threes came after he did this to the aforementioned Nocioni.

Thankfully, Andres Nocioni didn’t retaliate with any Nicolas Batum-like tactics. Maybe it was a combination of the floor and shoes.
