Zero situational awareness from the Canada bench big - so concerned with blocking out Kessler he completely lost track of the ball. If he goes for the ball instead of his man it's game over. Also Canada what on earth.... you'd think the guy who is 7/8 from downtown would take the game winning shot... not be the in-bounder so a C can shoot a long distance 3.
This is the Greatest 3rd Place/Bronze Medal matchup in sports history! Besides FIFA World Cup 3rd Place games, College football bowl games, and NIT college basketball games, tell me what other non-championship/gold medal games can produce a better entertaining match than this USA-Canada game today.
Grant Hill thought he could beat the world with c- players. he got too cute. bring the best players who want to play. The world is too good to think anyone can beat them.. I think trae young got black balled because he beat New York too many times.
Team USA not winning a medal is pretty funny. Wonder if it's going to be a blitzkrieg in the Olympics next year after this outing - all the best eligible USA players on a war path to make everyone forget about this (I'm firmly in the camp that USA would never lose if that played out) Also: sucked in Kerr
USA lost 3 of their last 4 games and are officially right now the 2nd best team in North America. Yikes.
To my fellow Americans. This right here is a lesson. A lesson in humility. You might want to drop that arrogance a little and understand, You ain't the world. Stop acting like you hot **** and understand everybody is coming for you. We don't got the biggest dick no more.
Too little too late imo. Olympic gold in basketball is whatever. The real **** is that fiba world cup of basketball, thats the trophy I want in this country. Next time I guess.
The Montenegro and Lithuania game first showed they were likely not going to win it all. The test game before the WC against Germany.
"Eventually Kerr, determined to make small ball work, decided to start playing five guards and wings with the "big man" being 6-foot-5 Josh Hart. When Hart fouled out, Kerr replaced him with 6-foot-1 Jalen Brunson to go even smaller..." ESPN - Windhorst.
