    G. Dragic vs. K. Irving is pretty good value.

    It's a little known fact, but there are 26 Dragic brothers. Qoran was the black sheep - became an Imam.

    Good idea putting plastic tarps down on the stage under the "singer." Vinegar and water can be tough on painted floors...

    France, because Claver doesn't get burn, and Nico is practically their captain.

    I'm rooting for Team USA. Only one guy I really dislike on the team, and he's a no-defense-playing flopper and a douchebag hipster, not a knuckleheaded thug.

    Team that has a chance: Spain
    Teams for sentimental reasons: France, Finland (Petteri), Argentina (all their good players are old as dirt), Greece (Antetokounmpo, Papanikolous)

    Main team: whoever is playing USA. I expect to lose by a lot.

    Looks like Group A is the Group of Death:

    Spain, Brazil, Serbia and France (and Iran (Hamadi!) and Egypt)

    Except that all four of those teams can come out of that group, so the only victims of that "Group of Death" will be from the Middle East.
