RJ with a nice dunk.
Canada need to take advantage when Luka rests.

Luka is his own level.
Shai is really good, Luka is another tier of player.

IDK, I feel like Jokic is the the only reason SGA’s not a legit MVP candidate this upcoming season. He’s coming up hard.

Shai is a different player. Great scorer but certainly doesn’t get guys open like Luka does.

Have I mentioned that I absolutely love Dort? He’s one of my favorite players of all-time. He’s the only player I bet props on aside from SGA and Luka.

Canada can't get any stops to start this quarter with Luka out.
Also Brooks is getting booed by the crowd at the free throw line haha

Canada is blitzing and doubling Luka every time he touches the ball.
Shai doesn't even get close to that amount of pressure or attention

LMAO I don't think Luka yelled and stomped loud and hard enough for that foul non-call tantrum. So unseemly.

Luka reminds me of prime Rockets Harden. Impossible to defend

That last foul of Powell wasn't a foul. Luka does a great job of making it look like he is fouled on every drive. He should get a tech next time he has an emotional outburst from not getting a call. So should his coach.

Canada prefers to play 4 small wings and 1 big. But neither Powell nor Olynyk have the defensive ability to make those lineups reliable. Canada has great perimeter defense but it's definitely a donut situation.

Shai vs. Luka is too fun. The two most dominant paint scoring guards in the world.

Doncic never learns.
Tech fouls count as personals and you only get 5 and yet he keeps yapping each game.

Confirmed, unfortunately with myself as a Lakers hater, that the Philippines is Lakers country with this much booing from the fans. This is a spillover of the Memphis-LA series last postseason and the fans remember Dillon Brooks. LOL
