I feel like Jaylen would’ve also been benched :lol:

If this game was called fairly, it would be a 20 point US lead right now.

No champ, you are used to players flopping about and getting ticky tack fouls.

No Sport, I'm not.

Good to see you backing up your argument with facts, oh…. Nevermind

Yabuesele well oiled at halftime.

I don’t think I’ve hated a cliche more than “who wants it more?”

First good play by Joel.

Thanks Kerr for giving him token minutes just to expose him. i thought we had to suffer this Celtics fans whining until the start of the new season.

You’re going to do that plenty enough for everyone.

US will win this with their eyes closed. Too far ahead of the rest of the world

Steph forcing right now

Has there been a foul US players haven't complained about?

okboomer · Post #990 » by **okboomer** » Sat Aug 10, 2024 8:29 pm

Oof, 3 on Booker.

Physical defense is how basketball should be played.
Thats just sad that you guys think that flopping is normal.

France oddly enough has benefited from the flop

Good cut Wemby. Great pass. Fine finish.

USA with the triangle offense. Haven't seen that in a while.

I think the Lakers should sign him right now honestly

What is the difference between him and Harrell?

I think we can just drop it at this point. Tatum’s the 11th man, they didn’t need him, and they wouldn’t have needed Jaylen Brown either. The US has plenty of talent.
