I sure am glad they took this Murray kid to Pan Am. Genius, Nash, GENIUS! Would have sucked for our Gold medal hopes to be dashed by some guy named Denzel Valentine or whatever whatbouts.

Kentucky fans are creaming themselves on twitter right now, lol. They were cheering against their own country drooling over Murray.

Same Brazil who could barely beat the Dominican?


Fatigue is really affecting the quality of play here for all the teams. But Brazil's execution overall is better and crisper than USA or Canada.


So why did they barely beat the Dominican?

But damn use the backboard sometimes


Thats the crazy thing he has so much scoring ability as is. And he has plenty of room for improvement. I don't know if he will ever be a star in the NBA but hes going to be a very good player for a long time. He has that abillity though.

Like I said, fatigue.

But still, Canada has a chance. We're IMO still the most talented team in this tourney overall.

And we got MURRAY
