FIBA Stuff

Just wake up after a touch night.... too much drink to forget the french performance...... France is struggling in offense as i was worried. When your best player is Fournier, you can be worry. He is good player but can't score 30 every night. Canada is really great, SGA is a star, Tha Vilain is playing well. KO was really good , as was NAW.

Rudy got a terrible night, no offense, average in defense ( let Canada get a lot of offensive rebound), akward with the ball in hands..... hope it was just a bad night as the rest of the team. But they definitly not a contender for this competition.
 
Rudy itw after the game. ''Canada was much better, we got our *** k......, on a personal level, i was non existent!'' Hard but realistic. Hopefully they will come with hunger tomorrow.
 
Agree with that. If Rudy loose a bit a physical qualities he become a very average player at best. Hope he can bounce back. If age reach him, end of career may be hard.

If that is the case, I'm glad the Jazz got all of his best years. I hope he is able to pick it up and be successful for at least a couple more years, though.
 
Ehm... what? He had a horrible first half but that didnt eventually cost us the game. 3 of those turnovers (including the passes to the stands) and 5 of the 6 missed threes were all in the first half.

In the 2nd half it was the backcourt who played like garbage especially on defense and they also couldnt get any proper plays initiated on offense. They were constantly abused by Mills, Giddey and Exum.
Lauri played nearly 17 minutes first half, a bit over 13 minutes in second half. You are correct, he didn't have as many bloopers in second half as during first, but I would seem to claim it was due to fewer minutes played in second half.

He missed 3 shots and had 1 turnover in the 2nd half (which wasnt comical). He had just 8 points (on 3/6 FG, 2/2 FT), but he got 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block and 1 steal.

His 2nd half was not bad and he did recover from that very shaky start. Finlands woes were elsewhere.
 
New Zealand is a physical team and their footwork is a bit awkward. Layup landing on the wrong foot, strange turnaround shot.
