Apparently if we finish second in the group we will avoid the tik tok dancin cheese filled hot dog lovers from down south until the finals, but if we finish first we're on a path to meet them in the semis :lupe:

I doubt they'll tank a game tho because Canadians are too pure of heart

I'm glad Kerr had the guts to bench Ingram
BI is a very good player but he's been ass in this format and is in own head rn he was killing them
I wonder if Hart is the starter for now or if they'll rotate out
He instantly solved their rebounding problems

Jovic one of the 5 best players in the tournament and Spo thought it was better to let 54 year old Kevin Love and 96 year old Plumlee (it doesn’t matter which one he is) get domesticated by Jokic instead

* while providing no discernible offensive value other than the pretense they were better at rebounding than 6’8 Bam

He didn’t have to play that many minutes, I would’ve had him in a relief pitcher role. They needed a curve ball look at the center position for non-Bam minutes. I woulda either did Yurtseven for a true seven footer body or Jovic for offensive creativity

I would’ve threw him a 3-5 min shift first time Jokic left the game in Game 3 just to see what the look resembled
