Cousins is being destroyed by Bogut. I wish Bogut was always healthy... such a talent.

lol Bogut isn't going to last much longer if he keeps doing that.

Cousins is letting him get destroyed. We all know Cousins is better by a mile when both players are healthy.

Hes never had a really good team besides once when he was fairly young. I think hed be good on the cavs when most people say its a bad fit.
I see no problem with him staying in ny and taking money. good for him
Bails for Chicago: LOSER! Wow nobody wants to compete anymore.
Stays in New York: Wow he only cares about money, what a loser.
Yeah exactly the double standards are stupid.

That wasn't a foul on Bogut, flopping USA.

USA's defense is offensive.

Bogut is also one of the best defensive bigs in the league and has enough beef to hold up against Boogie's physicality, so the idea that he'd play well against Cousins isn't insane.

I don't know why Coach K is getting any flack. I don't think that these guys want to run plays. They want to showboat and have a good time. Being down at halftime was the best thing that could have happened to Team USA up until this point as a squad. They looked so much more focused coming out of the half.
To Coach K's defensive, this team has way to much talent to run or depend on plays. They just need to go out there and be in the right spots and make the rights moves.

So Cousins is "letting himself" get destroyed by Bogut? Please. Professional athletes don't let other professional athletes just beat up on them.

Uh yeah, unless you think Bogut is anywhere near as good as Cousins. Don't think anyone who has watched both players play would think that. It's pretty clear. Bogut is playing harder than Cousins, that's all. If Cousins wants to start to take this game a little more seriously, he can destroy Bogut easily.

gotta love the fiba refs. no super star call bs like in the nba. exposing the lack of fundamentals, the us are not boxing out on the rebound and get punished by getting called for loose ball fouls.
coach k is shook, already working the refs on the side line.

Gotta fly in Kobe immediately. Someone needs to take their belt off and whoop Team USA's ass.
