Shaky Game 1 isn't surprising given nerves for everyone is normal. Much better winning than losing if it's going to be ugly.

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
I’ll take the win but:
We need to stop with the dumb fouls
Jamal looks cooked. Perhaps it’s best we limit his minutes or don’t play him altogether

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
Despite Jamal’s horrible play, atleast we know that man always has clutch genes in his veins. Great FT’s to seal the game.

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
Need to be way more disciplined with the fouling next game. They’re calling every reach.

He can come off the bench. The bench scoring is questionable.

I still got some blind faith in playoff Murray showing up for a game, or half a game.

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
Great effort by the Greece refs but ultimately came up short today.

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
The dumb fouls away from their basket really made this closer than it needed to be. Otherwise this was a 10+ pt win.
We’re on the board; let’s go!

Good win.
SGA is HIM
Dork and Brooks played great despite fouling out.

I don't think he's cooked but he was dealing with a calf injury back in the playoffs. Probably trying to not put too much stress on him. Slowly ramp him up.

overall it's to be expected given we have a number of guys who just can't defend. brooks got into trouble because he was tasked with defending giannis which is impossible to do cleanly as he is a goat level foul drawer

Re: Team Canada Basketball Thread V4.0
Murray is either rusty or slightly injured, but he's there, he's into the game, he wants to win.
The statements here that he's washed, or not giving effort, are absurd.
We just have to hope he gets his form back as the tournament progresses. Everyone should know how clutch he's been for Denver for years now

There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Some of those were not fouls though. Difficult to adjust for crooked refs.

The bench was 0-10 from three, we aren't going far if they don't show up.
