ya that's an abysmal call. the japan defender goes straight up and has an excellent contest on the move. dude just kicks his leg out entirely out of control and gets the bailout.
basically everything wrong with modern basketball.
Embiid doesn't really want to be there, huh? He is just sitting there, hands in his pockets, hasn't played a single second yet in any game.
its hard being in the olympic games in your adoptive country playing for another country where you're the only person who has never been to a conference finals
They clearly didn't need him to be chef so he just rested and was decoy
What amazing selfless play
that's all they got. they gotta hope and pray Curry has a bad game and then pounce. can't touch his accomplishments. He actually wasn't that bad in the South Sudan game, had 4 assists and was a distributor.

I think Japan shoulda won it...that's a very generous 4 point play for France on what looked like a kick out

why are there freethrows and why do you get 2 of them if you get fouled on a 1 point play
noon in the best time zone ever PST
Hella pissed
You don't make team USA bleed their own blood
Scared again
Bench his ass
it keeps disappearing
TIL: Luol Deng - who played for the Bulls for 10 years - is the President of the South Sudan Basketball Federation and their assistant coach.
They play with really great defensive energy
I'm hoping they're able to move on and take out a powerhouse like Australia, Canada or France
he's apparently been paying out of pocket for everything for the team
Yeah, the German commentator told that story as well. And Hoopshype tells me Luol Deng made $170 million over his 15 year NBA career - so that tracks
South Sudan having to work super hard to score
he's more of a distributor this game
he's been pretty bad so far in most of his minutes

Raise it
Something we should make nba players do more of
they do in the in-season tournament

Though the new deal kind of makes it all a cheap deal in a year
Sign me up!

He wasn't going to get a better opportunity to contribute to a contender than he just got with OKC.
