KD is going to feast. Australia didn't have the athletes to keep up. Rudy's defensive impact will be on full display tomorrow night especially with no defensive 3 seconds in FIBA. Australia beat team USA in an exhibition without their full roster. France beat them in Tokyo, KD was 4/12 and the team as a whole shot 36%. Rudy going to 360 yam on Dame Lillard at the buzzer to win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Australia beat team USA in an exhibition without their full roster. France beat a Team USA that hadn't gelled, just had 25% of the team fly in the day prior, and had KD in foul trouble for much of the game. Lightning ain't striking twice.

Rudy is going to do a 180 after the buzzer when he heads back to the locker room after France lost by double digits lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Gell mean iso, kick out, and watch KD/pray he makes it? I watched the entire game yesterday. And no, I don't think the team has fully gelled. I do think they have gelled far more than they did in the first game of the Olympics, considering 33% of the guys who get consistent minutes hadn't actually been present with the team before that point. You might have missed it if you tuned out after the first quarter and a half, but they absolutely buried Australia by playing team offense over the final two and a half quarters. They went from down 15 to up 20+ when Australia pulled their starters late. Won't be surprised when the same thing happens to France.

Greg Pop looks more like he's coaching a quidditch match at Hogwarts than team USA at the Olympics. Dude's brain is legit fried and he's at a Bill Walton level of insanity at this point of his basketball career. Yes they did bury Australia who's best NBA player is the great Joe Ingles, who is a freak athlete. Australia got blown away in the second half because they didn't have the athletes to keep up defensively. France can literally just camp Rudy, 3x DPOY, at the rim so even if guys are getting beat there's always help defense there. If Bam, McGee, or Draymond is going to win a gold medal from the 3P line, France will send USA another Statue of Liberty to commemorate the teams great achievement.

It's called Jrue-Booker-Middleton-Tatum-Durant. Feel free to leave one of those guys open.

With the way you're describing it, Gobert is going to be the statue standing under the rim lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
