We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.

poor baby was tired.. :lol: :evil:

Okay, to be fair. KP also had his worst games against the strongest opponents so far. (18pts against Serbia, 11 against RUssia).

Tomorrow against Vucevic I fear he might have troubles.

If KP can keep out of foul trouble then I think he'll be able to win that matchup. If he picks up 1 or 2 dumb fouls he could be in for a 20 minute game and early elimination.

Especially France.

Lithuania was up against Greece it was 50/50.

France would have needed Frank to take them further in the tournament. alas!

Still can't believe that Porzingis is putting up 25 PPG in JUST 27 MPG! :o

All without foul trouble, excessive TOs, AND with great %s! :clap:

Kuz & WillyG continue to prove themselves too! A near double-double for WillyG! :o

The is something Phil was aware of and talked about in selecting talent. So why did our teams suck so much? edit: he wasn't talking Euros vs. US, he was talking character vs. not.

It goes to show how good these two can be when there is an effort to play unselfish team ball from the top down....

Well KP is a euro superstar that all teams put as priority #1 to defend and have millions of tapes to study.


Lauri on the other hand....

so theres that too, but kid is good we'll see how he plays at NBA speeds against NBA competition, thats the real deal
