The Blues, with Tony Parker unleashed – he scored 28 points, including 11 in 6 minutes in the last quarter-time and beat Ukraine 77-71 Sunday night, posting a third straight win.

“If we can play like we played in the second half, frankly we will go far. And I think that we progress from game to game, said Mickaël Gelabale (10 points to 3/5 and 5 rebounds). In the third quarter, it was a collective effort to get things back on track. And fourth, it was the “TP show, ‘”  says Mickaël Gelabale.

Tonight the Blues are playing against Belgium in the third pool. An opponent not to minimize says the French winger “The Belgians have shown a lot of good things. We’ll have to get to stop them. They play fast, they have good shooters, and they are dominant inside. So it’s a pretty complete team. “
