The Flaming Burning Stinking & Predictable Disaster that is USA Basketball

[AndShock]

Baker wide open on the wing the whole possession but Bobby Brown refuses to let anyone touch the ball as the clock winds down besides himself.

Ron's defender grabbed his jersey at the chest as Ron made a cut. Official looking right at it and no whistle. This FIBA game is garbage.

I watched a bit of the KU NCAA game today and it is clear the FIBA game is ridiculously physical by comparison.

Count with me the number of times that brown passes the ball to Ron. So far in the second half it is ZERO!

I'm not watching close enough to count, but I can guess the number is similar in shape to an egg.

Just wanted to log on to say Trimble is the worst.

Not sure if he understands that the game is played on both ends of the court.

[ShockerFever]

Trimble got absolutely rejected from 22 feet out and then systematically lets his man beat him down the lane for an easy layup.

GAR-BAGE.

Is Trimble the one who is (not) guarding Murray?

Correct.


And the Bobby Bonehead Show is now taking over.

[The Mad Hatter]

An NBA post player just had a post up matchup with Baker and instead of trying to take the entry pass and back down a guard, he decides he needs to hook Baker's arm to get a foul call. First, it's a bad call by the officials. Second, how strong is Baker that an NBA power forward feels the need to do that.

Ron effing Baker

[AndShock]

Ron is trying to single handedly keep his country in it.

[AndShock]

Look what happens when you give Baker the ball, Bobby.
