    Real hard to beat the same team three times in a row in the Olympic cycle.

    Guys hit another gear when it mattered the most.

    Jokic got enough help early tho

    Without Curry and Embiid and Lebron and Durant and Booker this game was over.

    That KD iso was so freaking clutch with 34 seconds left. He was like everyone get out of my way, and then hit that jump shot that was contested like crazy.

    It's a nice retirement tour for the bunch of them. Glad he came through for us.

    Lebron's beard was short and black when the game started.

    Huge play…so was that Booker 3 going in. Lebron was a steady hand, and Curry was so good all day.

    They were like the best players on the court. I don't know if our young players have it.

    No he is not, he is the most overrated player by light years. Are you from Boston?

    Honestly...I was always in the camp that Jordan is the GOAT. But man...what Lebron still can do is just remarkable! Its really 1A, 1B because they are just special.

    Regarding this game - man Serbia was close to stunning the BBall world today. However, the 4Q today showed you everything you need to know about how great these guys really are. Curry carried the scoring for most of the game, Lebron just makes winning plays, KD is the best closer. Kudos to Embiid (still needs to rebound better) and Booker!

    Nice to see these guys get to play for the GOLD on Saturday!

    PS - It must be very mentally tough as an NBA champion to be a bench rider throughout these Olympics for Tatum.
