Celtics 2019-20 with Stevens coaching would've won this in the 1st half. Tbh.

Japan is easy, just rest Tatum he'll be fine if it's only an ankle sprain.

I know it's Pop coaching, but his rotations are so weird and team seems out of sync. He's playing different guys all the time.
Good assessment:

I feel better if it was the ankle, because it didn't appear to be extreme down there. I was more worried about his knee. Hopefully that its just a sprain. He doesn't need to play the next game.

Wow, the GB is basically unreadable. Froob was right, they hate the Celtics more than they like team USA.

Pop got outcoached. The 3-2 zone, the way the Turks played on offense, it was better than USA. They got out by the skin of their teeth.
