Am i watching a different stream? Pretty sure that is a fully packed arena. Something i wish to see in my Magic games again.

There are a lot of empty seats right on the lower central sections close to the court, but yes once they zoom out and show the rest its full.

Clarkson is cooking in the 1st Half

The arena can host 46,000 fans, but there are more than 30,000 fans in attendance right now.

No debate. Only FIBA Scola is a better.

Who’s hyped to watch this nasty Canada team??? I’m never up this early, LOL.

Am surprised we’re still in the game despite Clarkson’s low IQ heroball decisions.

PH should surprise Dom by Junmar attacking KAT’s defense.

Dort did not bump Fournier?

Canada ice cold from 3, and not in a good way.

Yeah I was surprised at that. They very obviously packed out the on camera side because entire low-mid bays were empty on the reverse angle

I would be if we had our best players all show up and commit. Adding Murray and Wiggins - or even Boucher and Birch - for example to this team would make a huge difference.
