Yes I understand. I'm just saying there is wayyy too much excitement about this game against Argentina team that doesn't play any defense. They are acting like he just won them a medal.

Argentina isn't good anymore but they do have a couple NBA players and fringe NBA guys/former players. The point is Luka made these men look like children.

Honestly.. it's what Team USA should be doing to their competition. Luka is getting praised for doing what he should while Team USA is severely underachieving.

Durant was 4-12 and 1-6 from 3 and had five fouls and played very little defense. That was inexcusable. They need to step up.

I guess that's it's not flashy enough. Also, it's viewed as being more of a "girl sport" here in the US :yeshrug:
i know, but that comes from it not being played by men. Most sports here originate on the men’s side, like if volleyball came here in 1920, It’s just weird that only women picked it up/kept playing it.

They needed an alternative for football for girls in the fall

there is no one who can guard durant, he can get his shot up against anyone. Of course IRAN is a joke and us should win by like 40 tomorrow but against these good teams a guy like durant needs to just say screw it and shoot 30 times if he has too
