USA basketball sucks. Just lost to France and choked heavily at the end. 11-0 run by France. Wide open threes missed. No one can make a basket with the Harlem Globetrotter basketball.

Do the Olympics count on this forum? Watching them play in the playoffs and championships and France actually giving a shit, glad for Gobert, just dumb lazy play and boring. If this was the NBA Pop. would be ringing them out. Just the Covid and varient Olympics. Blah. No one gives a shit.

Yes but they could beat the fucking Clippers! Watching it the France game was so strange rooting against Gobert. And at least the Aussie game loss didn't count. Joe Jinges for his endless 3's we call him here in SLC.
But yeah. Keep the thread going with the Olympics for those that have an interest in it. The U.S.A. just seems bored and has no fear of Pop. Hardest game for them the talking heads announcers. Will win the next one easily. Do I care, not all that much that was a great game with the France player jumping out of bounds to pass before landing for a three or the same for a behind the back for a another 3 while falling out of bounds. Can't make this shit up.
But watching some of the game is like the NBA players on the USA were who gives a fuck. I just wished Harden was on it. Durant sucked, not a go to guy. Just mostly bad basketball. 3 straight 3 pointers after offensive rebounds. Do they use a woman's size ball for it or/and is the basketball part plastic and part leather?
Don't know.

How may I help you officer in a French accent. Classic. Nothing to do with the NBA or Olympics. LIVING IN AMERICA, the USA! We are catching up with China! Who will rule the globe one day! Yao didn't last long a lot like modern day China. How is your Social Score? Well I can't take the train today because I spit in the street and everything has video surviellence. Well tough shit! Facial recognition and instant computer recognition sucks. That is does!
Time for a war in Taiwan with full support from the NBA. Zee French, off topic but need a laugh after that who gives a shit ending to the U.S. and French game and seeing China is leading with the U.S. in second with medals. Gymnastics start soon. Wonder if they will throw out kids and that have been trained since birth and call them teens and win gold again. Fuck China.

So what’s everyone’s thoughts of FA. Some interesting moves. I’m still not sure Nola got the best return on lonzo. But we will see. Westbrook and now melo to lakes. Fuck me dead I guess the Lakers are going to laker. Patty mills to Brooklyn is a nice get.
USA vs Aust semi finals. Patty going to light it up. Another upset would be great. But at least we have a shot at a medal. Luka will take his country to the gold medal match. If the normal prediction of USA winning then Aussies face France for bronze.

Up fifteen at half. Can get why you would of felt that way. Especially with the exhibition win earlier. K.D. He can take over a game and those three's were dropping. This isn't exactly a dream team but holy shit that was an impressive display of basketball in the second half.
Hope your country medals.. Not a bad team. Exum was in Utah but rarely played and was strange watching him play for more than half without going down with an injury. Joe Jingles. Great player but to that level of competition no.
Still am surprised the Bucks in the NBA won 4 straight for a title and that guy's play then and in the Olympics. Jrue can play.

So I don’t know if the Aussie team can do it. Luka will score 50 points himself. I was hoping for France but they have really shown their worth these games.
They probably have their best chance at gold they have ever had honestly.

K.D. Draped in an American flag. Gold to the U.S.
And the game everyone is looking forward to, can the U.S. woman's win? Hope they get a gold. To watch it, I would have to be tied down with my my eyes forced open Clockwork Orange style to watch it. Just will look at the final score.
I dare anyone to watch the highlights of this great American sport, lol. EQUAL PAY! Well, revenue generated has something to do with it.

Aussies win their first medal. It’s hard to believe we have never won any until now. Patty mills was just so determine throughout. And Ingles knocking them down too. Bronze is just the second best loser but it’s still a huge achievement.

https://twitter.com/Ballislife/status/1424137913206460419 This was what got me into basketball as a kid. Even though I picked the Hornets as my team. I still loved watching Shaq just demolish everything in his path.

Yeah. Remembered when he first started out at LSU, and yes I am old, and they were playing the Y in the NCAA tournament. My late father's alum. He was a basketball freak. They didn't blow them out but I remembered. Holy shit this guy is really good.
Saw him in Orlando with Penny which was great. He didn't do it in that game but made me laugh after seeing a clip of him tearing down the rim and shattering the backboard. And they asked him if he tried to do that or something to that effect. And he said hell yes.
One of the best of all time easily. Glad I got to see him for one game.
To the Olympics Bronze is nothing to be ashamed of. Was just amazing how team U.S. got interested all of a sudden to get the Gold and surprised Spain didn't get anything. Reason why Rubio never sticks with a team. K.D. and Tatum. That was amazing. France did deserve that Silver and was great how they used Gobert. And of course the women won a Gold over Japan? Wow. Just saw the headline and am more surprised Japan would even be in contention. Spending way to much time on streaming services and sports as year two of Covid drags on.

God/Life. Just another word I use for life. Looking at the picture of Steph and his dad breaking up with a late 20's, maybe thirties. No way it could of been about the money, no way, can't even comprehend.
In seriousness Klay and Steph together again in a non gay way is a wonderful and what really matters instead of this garbage.
Westbrook really doesn't turn out well wherever he goes.
