Canada deserved this win, imo, and they deserved to win a medal in this tournament. They were consistently one of the better teams in this tournament.

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 don't know, I think three effectively unforced turnovers in a row is about as blatant of a choke job as you can really have.

That isn't an insult to Canada, but the USA was horrific in overtime.

So anybody still think Kerr is a great coach? He got lucky he walked onto the team with Curry, Klay, and Draymond and then Durant joins them

SGA was incredible today.

He had a couple games earlier in tournament where he did lots of dribbling for himself but he is clearly still learning.

His pace was absolutely perfect. Knowing when to attack, when to pass and did it all so calmly.

SGA and Brooks scored just about half of Canada's points.

Canada made it tough on itself late but redeemed itself with steadier OT play. Played better to team strengths.

Brooks MVP!

OH CANADA!!!

Podium time!

I believe he had more nba Allstars than the rest of the teams combined(I may be wrong)

Started off with boos for Brooks, finishes with cheers and mvp chants
