FIBA World Cup 2019

Make you free throoooooooooows

 

It’s over. I’m calling it.

France knocks USA out of the World Cup!

Mitchell was great for the first three quarters, but no one else showed up.

 

Why does it looks like De Colo has a big chunk of snot under his nose

 

France played really well, much deserved!

Very nice matchups in semis if AUS goes through as well!

 

8pts difference with 16s left, I see someone is taking risks with his predictions !

 

HAHAHAHAHAAH THIS IS NOT THE NBA

 

Tissue to stop a nose bleed?

 

Bwahahahaha

 

Sports center keeps talking about shocking, upset, etc..


Was it? I don't think so

 

I’m very nervous about this Australia v Czech Republic game. Australia tends to play to the level of their opponents, so no easy games.

 

When's the last time team USA did not win a medal ??

Damn Serbia is out too.... let's go all the way

 

I have a biased opinion obviously but I don't think it was. France has a very good team with lots of NBA players including the DPOY and one of the best Euroleague player, and team USA was the weakest I had ever seen it.

It might be a small upset but they are talking about it like It was massive and utterly shocking...

 

Well team USA had won 58 straight games and not lost in an actual game in 13 years.

 

1980 Moscow Olympics, but they boycotted.

1978 World Champions they came 5th.

 

I think they lost a couple official games some months ago but for some reason people don't count them.

 

58 straight World Cup/Championship games? Because they lost to Australia a couple of weeks ago.

 

in a friendly. I watched that game.

Foreshadowing for sure.

 

Halftime
Aus 33 - 30 Cze

Refs currently allowing a more physical game than the Australia v France game.

 

So if the Blazers lose a preseason game, they haven’t lost since the WCF?

A loss in a friendly is still a loss.

It could be argued that the loss isn’t as important, and I’d agree; but it’s still a loss.
