Not sure this is something to brag about. Against most of these teams it should be expected for Embiid to play well. He would have to play exceptional the rest of the way through for people to start forgetting the stinkers leading up to this game.

How does Team USA not run any good sets on offense? What the hell were they doing when preparing in Vegas?

It’s all just iso ball or an extremely basic pick and roll.

3 3-pointers now from Embiid

Why complicate things? When the basics gives you blowout wins anyway. You're overthinking this.

LeBron's passing will be the thing I miss most about his game when he's gone

What were they doing? Spinning the ball on their finger and doing dunks for the cameras.

Embiid embracing the villain lol I'm cool with it as long as he keeps balling like this.

Why does it feel like Tatum always misses anything near the rim?
