I really thought Canada was in trouble after regulation. Momentum completely shifted. But they played with more simple tenacity and better to team strengths.
OH CANADA WE STAND ON GUARD FOR THEE!

His 4th place is arguably better than GOAT Popovich's 7th place in 2019. If he wins gold in the olympics like pop did, I guess people will forget.

SGA, Brooks, Powell, Dort.. you don’t think that’s balanced?
Look at the US lineup right now..

Three straight turnovers was brutal. USA completely choked.

FIBA reviews have been faster the entire tournament. The NBA should learn from this.

Sure but give Pop Kerr's roster and Kerr Pop's roster. Much better players committed this time around. It's stunning how USA didn't maximize team strengths.
I think it was also the time when FIBA switched years for WC closer to Olympics. Still seeing the repercussions now.
First goal was to qualify for Olympics. Both teams 2019 and now did that. All else are expectations and bonuses. Hopefully it's another wake up call.

Certainly not an ideal result for the US.

I feel sorry for NBA fans who might want to continue following FIBA basketball after seeing this tournament. This tournament is on another level and people shouldn't expect to see as much high scoring as we've seen in these games. Teams usually score 60 to 90 points in a game.
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Or maybe Canada is better.
The USA lost 3 matches in this tournament. Maybe the next gen of US stars is simply manure sprinkled with glitter.

I mean, remove one player, SGA, I think they struggle to get out of group stage. Don’t really have anyone that could come close to filling that hole. I think that’s the opposite of balanced.

So, the US got an extremely easy draw for the 1st group stage, since then, they lost 3 out of 4, with the lone win against Italy who had a really bad team and made it to the 2nd stage by miracle win against Serbia.
This is the US B team, but this is a roster talented enough to win, Steve Kerr roster construction, and the lack of bigs on that roster, and his insistence on playing small, resulted in this embarrassing outcome.
