These players getting paid multi-million dollar contracts struggling to beat a non defensive ass team. Why even go there? Were they forced to play?

Avoided Spain, serbia, Australia, slovenia, etc. Literally one of the easiests paths to the finals and they can't do shyt.

TBF. This is spo’s defense with all of this over switching. The only difference is, Heat players actually try.

that's Kerr's MO too, hell the Warriors were early with it

Trae should be there too tbh

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Why are there so many empty seats? Stop having these tournaments over there

All this focus on 3 point shooting and length has led us to build a team without size or adequate rebounding for international ball.
