Lillard only 1 shot attempt in the 3rd quarter

0-1 from the field

0-1 from three
 
Team USA up 81 -62 after 3
 
I tend to agree with Pop. A number of them look out of shape right now. Draymond Green is obviously playing himself back in shape. Kind of seems like Beal is a bit as well. Dame stayed in decent shape and Durant wasn’t out that long. Love is completely out of shape. Levine looks to be getting into better shape.
 
Maybe Lillard will learn how to throw a lob with this group?
 
Reality sets in when there are players on the USA Olympic Basketball team that I have to look up and figure out who they are and who they play for.
Bey? Wasn’t sure at all?

Ya know, I'm fine with the fact that I don't know every single NBA player, but I fully expect to know everyone that is on Team USA. Who tf are John Jenkins, Josh Magette, Dakota Mathias, and Cameron Reynolds??? Are they just rookies that I've overlooked or something? Surprised Dame didn't get Blevins on the squad.

Beat you to it. I had no idea either.
 
I always wondered: why do all the Argentinian players have Italian names (except for that one German-named one back in the day who looked like Fabio)? Suggestion: a ton of Italians joined the Nazis escaping to Argentina after WWII?
 
0-3 from the field in the 4th for Dame

0-3 from three in the 4th

Just say NO to any Love trade proposal -- If bought out i might be ok with it but no trade -- he has not looked great out there at least for what it would cost to trade for him.

But the Blazers are the land of retired has been players so he will fit

Lol

I did it myself. Nothing compared to what Darkwebs can do
 
Missed the game, but looking at the boxscore...
https://www.usab.com/news-events/live-stats/2021/mnt/7-13-21-usa-vs-arg-box.aspx

we won by +28 and still had 3 players who played 10+ minutes and had a negative +/-. That's not easy to do.

Feels like we should change the name from USA Basketball to USA Trail Blazers :)

btw, I didn't know Luis Scola was still alive, let alone playing basketball. He's 41!
 
We have a gleaguer on the team???? Who is Magette aNd how the hell did he make the roster?

Those guys are select team players that were brought in to be the practice squad but they get to be active for the exhibition games because without Booker, Middleton and Holiday who as you know are still playing the finals, the roster doesn't have the 12 players allowed.

yeah didn't even think of that. Still i would think the practice squad could be of legit nba players? Maybe they are “above” that.
 
to those questioning whether dame can play fast, i hope y'all are watching these games.

dame is getting up and down so quick. helps that his bigs bring the ball up too
