Tune in Lithuania vs Australia. THAT'S a game
Robert Horry is better than MJ, because everybody knows that 7>6.

That's a tight game. Neck and Neck, in the last part of the 4th Qtr.

Jaylen leading team USA at the half in points so I guess he's worth the max now. Just like how Varejao proved he's better than Giannis a couple days ago.

Marcus DNP so far. I think his reason for being on team is to guard Bogdan.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Ondrej Balvin. NBA quality. Sent Turkey out of the tournament.


Theis is better than Jordan.

Didn't play big minutes, didn't miss a shot.


The Japanese coach doesn't speak Japanese?


Rui dunk!

I think the real lesson here is don't let Kyrie Irving visit your country or join your team.

That's a game that didn't need to be played, that is just a terrible thing to watch.

This is probably going to be the best game of the tournament. I watched Greece play a little bit, they absolutely suck outside of Giannis but Giannis is so good that he got them to the second round anyway.

Yeah. Looks like Greece on Thursday, and Brazil on Saturday.
