I've been on the sign-Milos-Teodosic bandwagon for years. I doubt he'll ever come over, he rejected San Antonio last year and Memphis the year before. What he does -- shoot the outside shot with consistency and ability to finish at the rim is what I expect from CJ.
"Diaw, Of all the French players looks a little tired" Maybe because he played 105 games last season?
Lithuania has an endless supply of big beefy big men, like a sale on Big Macs. The announced attendance of 11,800 looked like 8000. Batum is not the best dribbler, so he protects the ball against his ribs during his last couple of steps on drives. As the best player on the Bronze Medal team, he should be on the All-Tournament team. Valanciunas had a great game for Lithuania. box score http://www.fiba.com/ls/#6241&BKM400102
Who's Batum swapping spit with at the end of this video? [video=youtube;fpEmGEbnP8E]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpEmGEbnP8E[/video]
It was all Irving, then all Harden and Cousins. Let Drummond and DeRozan in. Half-time 67-41 and they haven't played.
Go Mexican in Spain! Chalupa Time, 100-65. Fran the Colorman is yapping nonstop to fill time. Hate him.
Of course, Harden doesn't NEED to play defense. I wonder if this is a better team than if they'd had all the stars, just because they felt they had to play AS a team and not defer to LeBron or Durant or whomever. Whatever it is, they've just annihilated everyone. (Who'da thought that Turkey would be the only one to put up any kind of resistance?) Still a shame that they didn't get to play Spain, but the Spanish players might be secretly relieved, watching this.
I thought the game ended but it was the end of the 3rd quarter. It's been low-effort garbage time for both teams all through the 3rd. So the Director told these 2 clowns to fill time. They're talking about nothing. I prefer they name player names for every little event even in garbage time.
