He's a strong defender and always steps up his scoring in playoffs every year.

Those who want to trade Brown are simply wrong. He's only 22 yo.

I get that we all have different opinions but the blind hatred is confusing to me. Case in point KylerMurray carried his team all the way to the 2nd round of the playoffs along with Jokic therefore JB is a scrub compared to him. As if JB didn’t help lead his team to one game away from the NBA Finals the season before as a 21 y/o.


Damn, a three sport star now? What a talent!

Nice!
Hey Man, nice shot!

I know it’s been asked but this is the first game I’m up and available for. Is ESPN+ really the only way to watch? I’m not seeing anything promising on R/streams.

Hypothetical: If the USA had lost to Turkey by a point instead of winning by a point, with other results the same, would the seedings have been any different?

If the tiebreak is simple point differential, I think not, because the US margin of victory over the Czech Republic was about 6 points more than the Czechs' over Turkey.

That said: If the point differential in the Turkey-Czech game had mattered, the game might have gone differently.

Brown has been everywhere in first quarter. Unfortunaly White, Plumlee and Middleton have been very bad

Giannis breathing a sigh of relief that Kyrie isn't playing for USA. Otherwise Irving would've needlessly switched unto him every single time to lock him down.

That was a very low scoring half.

That "Unsportsman-like foul" is something else huh?
Kemba could have gotten 3 shots, and the ball back. Wow.

Might have seen Yao Ming. That was him sitting near the court for China v South Korea?

FIBA should have found a different name for the instant replay system.



Greek Fork, what a wonderful free throw shooting display.

Filipino referee probably a Celtics fan. Very biased against Giannis-led Greece team lol.

It's Lovely to see 4 Celtics in the Team USA huddle.
A thing of Beauty.

You may have to try an alternate Youtube link. But I think that you have to do it Live.
There should be a whole game recap somewhere on Youtube.
