Official Team Canada Basketball Thread

We aren’t good enough to think we can beat any national team, with zero commitment for years.

Brehs never play with each other, not even a training camp, no warm up games nothing and think they can waltz in and blow out teams like team USA

We couldn’t get a single big man out there why did they cut that big 7 foot giant kid anyway? Would’ve been better than Lyles.

They had Owen Klassen too. He's kind of a bum compared to offensively talented NBA bigs. But he's a 6'10 burly dude who jumps out the gym and blocks shots and defends


No way he wouldn't have been more useful than a doornekamp

Don't care
NBA is the best league on the world. I don't see Brazil losing to team Canada in soccer do you?

Canada ain't the equivalent of Brazil. They more like the equalivent Austria in soccer

We have the second most NBA talent by a large margin

In terms of developing pro talent, were the 2nd best country in the world and it's not even close

No offense but RJ is a nice player but his game ain't suited for fiba all that bully head down drive to the basket

Nikka he carried y’all asses out there. Y’all ain’t got no front court


Complain about RJ when he scored the most points on the whole team brehs

Sorry Trey Lyles shouldnt have the ball in his hands to tie or win the game....

Saying Lyles couldn't have gotten a better look

You're right it shouldn't have gone to him

How much is of that is being in North America?

Are your ballers really better than the ones in Europe just because they’re in the NBA?

Looks like A. Wiggins was y’all best player

Damn I was wrong as hell about this team but if they had Murray I’d assume they would be better

Murray,SGA,Brooks,Thompson,Olynyk,Boucher

There was alot of guys missing...

It doesnt matter how good the look is,thats not a shot he takes regularly...he was 1 for 8 in the game,what coach goes to his 9th best player for the GW.....For me thats a lower percentage shot with Lyles taking it than a 3 from Wiggins at the buzzer with a hand in his face...because Wiggs takes and makes those with higher frequency...

 

[MikelArteta]

We deserve it

 

[Miggs]

Sounds like a polite "I'm done "

Sorry but you cant beat the Czechs im all for giving someone else a try....Nurse is not must have,he couldnt secure DIllon Brooks or TT confirmation so bounce then 4 eyes...

Birch as well I know you hate him but he wouldn't have got killed on the boards like powell didb

Shai, Jamal Murray, Dillon Brooks , could all be argued as being better than Wiggins .


They'll probably have 20guys in the NBa next year. We never get a full turn out for the National team. But in terms of talent level from a country there's no one close outside of the USA
