LOL, "France wins by 1 with a second half comeback" They lead pretty much the entire game. The whole second half they held a 7-10 point lead. Never was behind, did the poster even watch the game ?
Donic is a whiny little bitch. He whines even when not fouled, and he hacked the shit out of a player on France, and went to the official and whined for 30 seconds. It was clear he fouled the guy, not even a question. Super talented player and a enjoy to watch, but his flopping and whining is next level. I know guys do it in the NBA and it is the "in" thing, but he takes it to another level.
A guy not getting any credit or is under the radar, Jru Holiday is balling his ass off. He is just putting clamps on his man and shutting him down, but what is really not getting noticed his playmaking ability. he is truly playing at a high level at both ends of the floor.
The best thing that could have happened to Team USA is losing the game to the Aussies in Vegas, then losing the first game in Tokyo to France. it lined up perfect, we drew those two for the Semis and Finals. Reason I say that is it eliminated the chance they MIGHT come out and sleep walk or think they could just show up and win. No way they would take either team lightly, not to mention it will keep them focused and the revenge factor is a extra bonus. We have already played both and kind of knew what their game plan was / is going to be. I low key didn't want to get Slovenia in the Gold Medal game. We have not played them so it would have been a figuring out and adjusting on the fly. Not to mention Donic could have went HAM and dropped a 50 spot triple double. Fournier will be tough to contain, just slow him down and make him pass the ball. But they are not a one man team. Rudy Gobert is a tough assignment inside and he will protect the rim, so team USA may need to use the little pull up J from 5-10 feet and not try to attack all the way to the rim. But the guy who is balling out is De Colo. he is scoring, assisting, whatever it takes to win. Averaging 14 / 4 / 6. Luwawu- Cabrrot is no slouch, they have NBA vet Batum, so you can't just key on 1 guy or 2 guys.
Should be a great game, can't afford to get down DD's against the veteran French team. We actually had the opening game won, up 8 with 3 minutes and change left. Total collapse, but the learned something from it.
