    How do you know they didn't also put magnets or metal in the leather. A perfect theory from Q. ;)

    He has also recently admitted to getting his "news" from OAN and Newsmax. Which pretty much means I will believe anything I hear.

    I like how everyone thought that USA losing to Nigeria and Australia was a "wake up" call. This is just not team put well together, despite it being our C team or whatever @Reeko wants to call it. We should still be able to beat these teams. A lot of one on one play with this team though, not a enough passing like a Gregg Pop team should be. It doesn't help that players are sometimes passing up open shots for no damn reason.

    Team USA has poor interior defense and is weak on rebounding. The international game is more of a half-court game and the spacing is less because the 3-point line is in closer. Bam Adebayo is not enough on the inside to give us what we need. Plus, we've got a team of superstars who struggle to fit in playing supporting roles. Just an all-around frustrating squad to watch, despite the offensive firepower.

    Lillard really cost us this game. This roster is certainly talented but fit weird together. Feel like they've really could've used a pass-heavy guard/setup man.

    How was he the only one that cost us the game? Did you see all those ****ing bricks after France went up to 2? Lavine with a brick, Durant with a Brick, then Holiday with the roll out. It wasn't a one man loss, that's for sure.

    We can call this the "Toronto" game, although I honestly though the loss to Nigeria and Australia were also the "Toronto" games as well.
