    Obviously Rudy and Victor. The third I didn’t spot, so I knew it must be something like a summer league spot, or Moe in the crowd, or a coach, or commentator, or ref.

    Gian Clavell of Puerto Rico played for us in the 2019 summer league.

    It takes away from his ability to be at his max. when he plays for the Blazers. It also increases the risk of an injury.

    Looks like "Dogus Balbay" gave the US a lifeline...

    USA squeaks out a win. Somewhere Enes Kanter is smiling.

    More significant than Turkey beating themselves is Jayson Tatum's ankle injury. Probably minor, but still, you gotta be happy Dame and CJ aren't over there.

    These guys have been doing Team USA stuff everyday since the beginning of August and won't get home til Mid-September, then training camp starts 10 days after. The busy schedule is just too much for the players to commit too. Very understandable.

    I'm happy because it means I don't have to root against them.

    JIngles almost getting a triple double against Senegal 17@75%/10/9

    Delly not too far off either 6/8/7

    Germany lead by Schroder and Theis knocked out of the World Cup by Dominican Republic and our man Luis Montero.

    Canada knocked out by Lithuania, who are looking very good.

    Big game coming up between Greece and New Zealand.

    When your coach has no clue about basketball I guess you can have the best player in the world taking 7 shots...

    Now we have to beat USA :smiley-smiley-049:
