I believe they also have the Ocho, which is TSN 8, FWIW.

No attempt made on the ball. That was bush league by the venezualan player.

Please retaliate (ideally with Triano so he's out of the tournament). Thanks.

I don't know that his game translates that well to FIBA. There's always a few NBA guys who just don't play well in international comp.

Kelly typically does well for team Canada. He's a big man that can shoot pass and dribble. His shot has been inconsistent. I'm mostly disappointed in his defensive effort. Perhaps his injury is still lingering.

Nicolsons role has been decreased significantly, Im not sure thats a good thing, he scored at will during the pan ams and previous fiba tournaments.

Nicholson is one of those guys that need to find other ways to help a team other than score. IIRC he was scoring well in the World Cup qualifiers two years ago. But when his shot would stop falling, he was borderline useless.

I don't get the "his game doesn't translate well to fiba" comments in this context, he (kelly) missed layups... that's not about the league or rules.

I think it's pretty obvious our team doesn't really have that flow to their game but I expect in a few years they'll be looking pretty good.

Seemed like Nicholson didn't really get into his game yet... I was impressed by his play earlier in the summer for sure.

Who are the yes men in Olynyk's circle that let him leave the house with that dirty chin beard?

Those Coors Light decals are stressing me the F out now.
