Great defense in the first half, let’s see how they adjust, but this is really an amazing job by coach Pešić. Before the tournament started, people were happy if we’d get to the QF with this team.
Honestly can’t wait for Paris 2024 lol

My spidey senses are tingling. I have a weird feeling Brooks will get ejected in the 2nd half

Serbia is doing what they did to Lithuania. the DEFEND the s*** out of the players. This right there could be new champs, I hope them and Germans make finals, USA vs Canada can be dream team bronze game haha

i expect the US to be 7.5 favorites vs Serbia if they do meet there.

USA is bad matchup for Serbia, cause their guards are too good at handling, but Serbia has hustle and Militinov, so might as well write off any rebounds for USA, and If Serbia shoots well in that game, that could be it for US. Anyhow, I hope Germany wins today anway.

Serbia is just the better team.

Now this is the Brooks we all know, out of control and thinks he's a superstar. That works sometimes but...

Nice D to start for Canada. Have to reward themselves with some points. Could have been down to 6...

Mr Pesic, you need to do something about those wide open corner 3s.

**** brick hands.

Not sure of that foul on Brooks wow

durden_tyler · Post #193 » by **durden_tyler** » Fri Sep 8, 2023 9:59 am

One away from his fifth, what will Brooks do now-- he has played physical good defense all tourney long, does he know how to change gears?

durden_tyler · Post #194 » by **durden_tyler** » Fri Sep 8, 2023 9:59 am

Okay Brooks left with 6:46 to go. If Canada can keep this within distance i think they have a chance.

Serbia’s definitely been the better team but some of these calls…

Dillon Brooks really is Canada's best shooter by a mile.

That Molotov guy is a special player.
