I know there's a lot less commercials than an NBA game, but NBC aired Equestrian instead and had the game aired on NBC Sports. There were also 4 Americans in the Mixed Doubles Tennis Finals, including Venus Williams, and they relegated that to Bravo.

They are getting progressively worse and more anxious on both ends! France is a less organized team than Serbia and Australia, and they are playing without Tony Parker!

Also, why do these teams have so much better offensive team play and ball movement than the US? I know the US has a legit excuse of having not been together long, but isn't that also true for int'l teams like France, Serbia, etc? Don't their players also have normal pro teams that they play for most of the year, and only come together for their respective national teams once in a while, much like the US team?

Not to make excuses for the U.S as they should absolutely be winning these games by more but France is better than both Serbia and Australia. They were the European Champions last year and they have more legit NBA talent than probably any team that isn't the USA (it has been a battle with them and Spain for a while now). Also, with the story of Stephen Jackson calling Tony Parker selfish, it appears there may be a little truth to that....

A huge huge drop-off from 2008 and 2012. I know Kobe and LeBron aren't there anymore but come on man we already saw in 2014 that they were better than that.
I feel like it's missing somekind of leadership. I mean when you come from LeBron/CP3/Kobe to Melo/KD/George... Don't get me wrong they aren't bad guys but well there's a gulf

Is it Spain loss, Croatia loss or are they done?
CjayC wrote:Curry as a 2? I don't know. Not every 2 in International Play is Ronnie Brewer that you can just hide Curry on.
Would rather not suit Irving and bring George, Butler, or Derozan for extra wing defense. If you have Westbrook then Irving is not necessary. Westbrook can do much of the same off the dribble and he's actually strong enough to play spot minutes at the 2.

Don't know why...no problem, I will send you one later before the day 9 starts hopefully. If not, I will put the links here but I don't know if its allowed on this forum.
