Olympic Basketball

[Chris Craig]

These refs are giving France a ton of whistles when there's no foul.

Seriously. What a joke

 

[HailBlazers]

Watching Durant makes me want to cry. He could have been ours

Dame wouldnt. No matter how much better he is I'll take Dame every time.

Durant is a mercenary so he wouldn't have been with us after his first extension anyway.

Maybe. Aldridge and him may have become best buds. The story went that Aldridge wanted Durant. They knew each other because Aldridge showed Durant around campus at Texas.

You wouldn't have known what having Dame was like. You probably would have fallen in love with Durant all the same. Until he broke our hearts and left.

Thanks - won’t work for me in Mexico

 

[blazerkor]

These fucking whistles. They're pushing our guys in the back, hooking and pushing off on offense but we get called for them running into our guys. Some 5 on 8 bullshit.

It’s the KD show and a bunch of dudes

Amazing how good he is.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Dame has been wack in the Olympics. He was better in exhibition. KD is amazing. Just crazy to watch him

Jrue Holiday with the awesome D. He has been a joy to watch play in the olympics.

I hate that snake durant always about himself

We all know it’s really FEBA, Fédération Européen de Basketball.

 

[SlyPokerCat]

I hate that snake durant always about himself

He has been a good teammate and is the reason we are even playing for gold. Arguably the best player in the world.

 

[DUB]

Dame is playing Steve Blake to Durant’s Brandon Roy. Just bring the ball up, hand it to Durant, and go stand in the corner.

 

[B-Roy]

Holiday's defense is just brilliant to watch.

 

[riverman]

now we're cookin'!

 

[AldoTrapani]

Jrue Holiday defense is so elite. We should have traded Cj for him years ago

 

[B-Roy]

Jrue Holiday is so fucking good.

 

[AldoTrapani]

You have been whack as a fan for as long as I can remember. Just waiting to go negative... always waiting to hate.

I love dame I give him credit all the time and literally say I wish the best for him

Correct, Dame is a role player on this team.

 

[DUB]

Jrue Holiday with the awesome D. He has been a joy to watch play in the olympics.

Holiday's defense is just brilliant to watch.

Easily USA’s second best player at these Olympics, and I think their most important player. USA can replace Durant’s scoring from within this squad, but I’m not sure the can replace Holiday’s defence, and game management.

 

[blazerkor]

If Dame sits the rest of this game he had a great game defensively and even though his shot has been off for every game except Iran, he can feel good about the defense he played tonight.

 

[blazerkor]

Nic hitting a big three... shit!

 

[riverman]

Holiday has some of the best defensive footwork I've seen...the guy is amazingly quick at adjusting

 

[Chris Craig]

Correct, Dame is a role player on this team.

Sad

 

[blazerkor]

I love dame I give him credit all the time and literally say I wish the best for him

And just ruthlessly bash him every time he has a slump which every shooter ever does.

 

[blazerkor]

Sad

It's not that sad. Unless your KD or just blatantly ball hogging it like Tatum... you're going to be a role player with the kind of usage Durant is getting. Who isn't a role player on this team?

 

[DUB]

Correct, Dame is a role player on this team.

I was hoping he might be Robin to Durant’s Batman. But he’s not even looking for his own shots, he’s just relegated to catch and shoots. Most other players are looking for their own shots. Dame has just been so passive.
