🌶️Hot take

I will be 2x more bullish on Team USA if they *lose* this game today.

They need a wake up call, and a clear excuse for coaches to make the right strategic decisions. Look pretty uninspired and inefficient imo.

They got that against South Sudan (and Germany a bit) already 😎

don't take my casts seriously please (most of them at least)

Totally agree. I think this is going to be a tough tournament to win!

Imo international competition is just way better now compared to a couple years ago

Well, whatever doubts there may have been in the first few minutes of the first quarter were short-lived 😅

From now on no victories under +10 points😏

That systemic anomaly that resulted in "no gold medal" for the USA in basketball at the 2004 Athens Olympics, is not likely to be repeated…
