Glad to see our dynamic duo supporting each other.

Wonder if other Magician ( Suggs JI etc) also gave support

Pretty sure Jalen just posted he was in Paris. I know Harris posted a group pic of a bunch of them together. Makes me wonder if a lot of them are going go out to support Franz and Moe.

When you can afford private charters that probably helps.

Btw watching a replay of the game and they mentioned that Evan is 31, hard to believe he looked like he was 41 last year except when he played against us.

I'm picking Germany over Greece, Canada over France, Serbia over Australia, and USA over Brazil.

Edit:

So a final four of the USA, Serbia, Canada, and Germany.

Only three can medal. Going to be interesting.

Somebody call the Louvre because there's a masterpiece hanging in the basketball arena.

Germany is far and away the best defense in the Olympics with Franz as their best defender. Food for thought.

I've been on record that Franz is our best defender and I think this is going to become increasingly obvious over time. JI is our best per minute defender of course, and Suggs and KCP are elite, but Franz is the anchor.

Franz is the best team defender. Suggs is the best on ball defender. JI is the best disruptor, in the paint and in the passing lanes.
