[MikelArteta]

But I thought the world caught up

Nah

 

[Cheddar Biscuits]

brittney griner guarding rui machida is just some foolishness

 

[King Static X]

The USA would be up by way more than 11. They just keep letting Japan shoot wide open 3s

I got a chance to practice with some Japanese bball players at a rec center when I was over in Japan and they are real strict about the fundamentals
We dumb americans just wanted to get some shots up we had to go through drills first
I'm talking suicides, layup drills, dribbling cones, etc

robout out there shooting from half court with ease

 

[Nero Christ]

as big as most euro leagues

I know from gifs they got a couple of hoop animes too so it has a presence over there somewhat

She got some last game but I guess she not trying to take any chances against Japan.

Yeah, she's barely played her. Old ass Sue Bird gets almost all the burn

Sue Bird was looking lost on defense in this game in the 1st quarter. Also, Sue Bird provides essentially ZERO offense.

I agree and maybe it's because it's her last Olympics but Staley seems to think going with her gives them the best chance to win
