Old Going For Gold: USA Men's Olympic Basketball - Next Up The Main Event vs France (8/10 @ 3:30pm ET)

[UpAndComing]

Enough of the glazing and genuflecting of old nikkas KD, LeBron, and Curry

Without Embiid's performance in this game, Team USA loses to Serbia. Period

 

[Blessings]

I will say this, 80s and 90s play was in play today and it said something to me.

Bron and Embid are the only ones that could play in the 80s, 90s against this brute energy. Just look at how AD play, Bam played, Derrick White played, Booker couldn't get to his spots, hell even Curry struggle against that brute energy on defense, and honestly, I don't see Curry doing all this for 82 games in the 90s

That brute energy from Serbia exposed these powder puff ass dudes. AD just looked sloppy checking Joker, just imagine him going against David Robinson or Hakeem in their prime, or a SHAQ? Hell no.

Bron not getting triple doubles in the 90s, his back to the basket game today was horrible, the shots he made were off balance, wasn't smooth or nothing. Not saying he wouldn't score, but he wouldn't be putting up 30 a game over an 82 game span

This game showed me that 90% of the NBA could NOT play against this type of energy.

Hell look at the other games and see how these players struggled against physical play.

The refs did NOT bail these dudes out at ALL.

Bron could not move them white boys on that team

I don't wanna hear about what these dudes would do in the 90s, I saw it TODAY and it did not look good

Take away KD height and he doesn't get to the rim AT ALL, He would be too small. 6'7, KD is not averaging 30 points a game.

None of these dudes would average 25 points a game in the 80s or 90s.

Just look at the box score on today's game and these were some average below average players playing somewhat of a 90s style ball

Thoughts?

I was with you till you mentioned Bron not getting triple-doubles in the 90s

 

[Mister Terrific]

What's crazy is you could argue all 3 hit their signature shots: LeBron going to the rim and being the GOAT at finishing, KD the midrange killer off a 1 on 1 iso, and Steph hitting a backbreaking 3.

Poetic

We almost got that lazy look at my wrist oops here’s a Lefukk you 3 too.

Jesus Christ on a cracker how long will you old washed fakkits make us suffer with this “90s was da best” talk!??? 1990 is literally nearly 40 years ago. You can’t even celebrate for your country after watching a classic of a game you gotta start pushing your agenda bc you can’t get over the fact your youth is gone and you got breasts drooping towards your belly button. Shut the fukk up pleaseeeee

Embid is getting his praise too. KD Bron and Steph got the most fans and been around the longest so of course the praise gonna be louder

 

[mag357]

It was kinda fun to watch but really wasn't that serious.

They need to be down for us to be a lil bit interested. And we need certain nikkaz to not play so we can debate about that.
Besides that this sht is ass

 

[klutch2381]

Mans had Serbia’s bench going through it.

I made same point earlier. It was an amazing game but only made possible by poor coaching. No excuse for a team this talented to be down by 15+ point deficits multiple times to a Serbia side with just one star player.

If Serbia drained that wide open 3 or Jokic didn't get himself into foul trouble we'd be talking about the most embarrasing loss in maybe the history of basketball.

They the top 3 in +/- these 5 games too and easily the 3 best of an entire era of ball.

KD clamped up Bogdan in that 4th. Its wild we had to even put him on Bogdan a guard but he went like 1/5 in the 4th after KD started checkin em

Kerr is a fukking retard wit the 3 guard bullshyt. This dumbass cac always gotta think he smarter than everyone in room and stay lookin retarded. Steph, Book, Bron, KD our best 4 man lineup by far. Everythin points to it. Just the 5 man depend on matchup and day wit AD, Embiid and Bam. If he don't start wit those 4 he a fukkin domestic terrorist specially wit how many all time finals performances KD got internationally and NBA. He gotta start. How many 1st halves we gotta lose before KD get put in and get run? He leadin in +/- a good +10 over 2nd.

 

[Gritsngravy]

The discourse throughout the last couple of pages is borderline ridiculous

Isn’t this the same team USA beat by double digits both times, the same team that damn near lost to aus

Y’all underestimating the unpredictability of tournament style basketball, I thought yall would understand this after so many years of watching college basketball

Y’all trying to award joker the mvp before the season even started just because they played usa tough in the third game they played them, yall hated on embid now yall love him, steph the greatest or worst fiba player

Is it oochie Wally or one mic

Leave them weak ass agendas y’all on alone
