July 28, 20241 yr Jesus Christ, KD. The degree of difficulty on his 2-pointers in that half were off the charts, and none tougher than that buzzer beater. Have a fucking half, man.

It’s a totally different group this time with guys that are better and ranked higher than him. KD dropped 19. In the first half. Lebron has been carrying the team before he came back. But yes thanks to the young bucks for carrying these old goats

July 28, 20241 yr That was one of the most NBA Jam on fire first half Olympics performances I've ever seen. KD baby!!!!

July 28, 20241 yr I’m actually curious whose spots did lbj, KD and Steph take, in yalls opinion? Jaylen brown should be on this team for sure.

July 28, 20241 yr Regarding the tournament scoring system, how the fuck do you award the losing team a point for a loss? That is some stupid-ass shit.
July 28, 20241 yr I continue to think that Ant is very talented, but selfish and plays kind of dumb. He’ll showboat when the game is seemingly out of reach
July 28, 20241 yr KD changes everything about this team. LeBron is very very solid but everyone else is hit and miss.

July 28, 20241 yr this thread should be ported over to the Olympics section. we are essentially running two game threads now
July 28, 20241 yr I didn’t even notice an Olympic subforum had been made till midway through the second half. Edited July 28, 20241 yr by Covri
July 28, 20241 yr Haliburton not playing isn’t a surprise. Tatum with zero run…that’s pretty damn wild. Durant got all his minutes.

Shameful unless there’s something y going on He's in full damage control mode rn. Said it was a time/matchup issue. Then again, if I'm Tatum, I'm sitting/standing next to Kerr, talking in his ear, doing whatever I can to REMIND him that I need to be in the game. https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/40667318 Edited July 28, 20241 yr by Braff Zacklin
July 28, 20241 yr I agree Tatum should be in the rotation, but that Holliday/Derek White combo in that one guard spot is tough to sit. Those guys are the only ones on the floor besides Anthony Davis and/or Bam that don’t need the ball.
July 28, 20241 yr I’ve posted for years- KD is the FIBA GOAT. It’s like the rule makers asked him where he would like the 3 point arc to be placed.
July 29, 20241 yr X-post from the Durant thread. In case you missed it, KD had a half for the ages versus Serbia today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWGt3emJ8dA (Worth the click, even if you saw the game. Only 3 minutes, anyway.)

July 29, 20241 yr Crazy stat from yesterday's game. Jokic's +/- was 0 in a 26 point loss. Score was 81-81 when he was in and 3-29 when he was out. And Embiid was somehow -8 in his minutes.
