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

[In The Zone '98]

Stab?

LOOOOL, be a bit creative at least.

nikkas still hiding behind an internet forum. Show me who you are and we can take it from there.

I can very easily get myself over to where you're at, it's called having a passport and having money.

Go pay a trainer and work on your jumper. So you can help your country, mate.

Or maybe the same team that is able to give their opponents respect medalled for the first time as a host nation since '96.

It took literally 3 of your greatest players of all-time to get the job done and they did just that.

If you think the gap is going to get wider by the time '28 arrives then...

I'd rather put that money towards having your mother violated in front of you.

Jrue was better than him on both ends all Olympics. He was better than Tatum most of the finals when they won the chip too. He havin a very strange career. One of the most questionable "superstars" I can ever remember.

Man what!? Yall just saying sh*t to say sh*t. The Tatum hate on here is getting to nasty levels.

France was coming off KD, to double Steph. That’s insane. And it still didn’t work.

There's nothing inherently wrong with what he posted.

Jrue was definitively better than Tatum in the Olympics, and he rose to the occasion more than Tatum did in the Finals too (albeit he has a less important role and deals with less defensive attention). Tatum's jumpshot abandoned him pretty much all postseason, and as we saw in the Olympics he couldn't find it. Funny thing is, his 2024 postseason was pretty much his most inefficient one of his career and the Celtics still went on to win the 'ship, so it is quite strange in that respect that hadn't really improved from the year before.

He should be hitting his peak, but we've seen anything but that, which is only emphasized by his poor performance in the Olympics.

He probably just needs to deprogramme himself from all things hoops for a while. He's played more basketball than pretty much everyone over the last 2-3 years.
