Cant wait. Looking at USA's rosters, there are 2 guys that scare the hell outta me and it's Steph/Embiid. Steph just launching 3s with a shorter 3 Point Line and Embiid feasting on our lack of true bigs.

Kawhi no longer on the team.

His career has been such a disaster since he left Toronto.

Embiid will be the biggest problem....not only offensively but also defensively with FIBA rules

I would have thought that the FIBA refs are not going to fall for his flailing and flopping as much as they do in the NBA.

Even for friendlies this came out of no where, just wasn't paying attention I guess. Was occupied with Canada football. No complaints though.

I am looking forward to the goaltending (legal in FIBA) display from Joseph. It's actually going to be glorious.

Hope we heavily limit the big 3 minutes, leading to 10-15 pts loss

I think I saw him at one of the France soccer games, so he's definitely inspired.

Let see what plays they run, what style they play and how the SGA x Murray dynamic looks. The scoreboard doesn't matter much, I bet it doesn't matter for the US side as well.

Gonna be cool seeing Murray playing in a Team Canada jersey. The Pan Am games feel like just yesterday.

I don't understand why Olympic teams are playing exhibition games vs each other a few weeks prior to the real thing. Why not just show up to Paris and ball out?
