Is this a replay of the game they just played?

It is my bad.

It’s all good. I thought they only played one game before Dubai but I’m all for more basketball if I can get it.

Great start for Ant today. The team as a whole showed their unfamiliarity with each other today though. Joel doesn't look good in this setting to me...def a volume/rhythm guy it seems.

He isn't getting away with all the BS he does in the NBA.

I thought about that too. I do kind of like some of the fiba style better than the league. Specifically, after the ball hits the rim.

Once the ball hits the rim it should be fair game. The NBA needs to adopt the international rule.

Bron still being your best player at his age is wild.

Going to be hard for this team to win gold. The world is not the same as it was. There’s no fear anymore.

Forget about fear--the rest of the world is way better at basketball than it was 20-30 years ago.

France really s... during preparation. No real PG, Connection Wemby-Rudy to be improved... if our best shooter is Evan Fournier, we are done or we will need Wemby to score 30 every night.

It wasn't even Sudan. It was South Sudan. If they had combined forces with North Sudan they would have beat us. :lol:

Need to find some guards. And honestly, I wonder if they'd be better off only playing one of Rudy or Victor at a time.
