Europe is so laughably bad at basketball.

This is why you will never beat America.

You realize which continent inspired the first NBA teams to go pace and space?

They do not have one. Some teams choose not to use it. Some countries make it harder for it to happen. Spain is using Mirotic as its ringer. He did play their for a few years though.

According to wiki he's lived there since he turned 14.

Different note:
The game of Turkey vs Italy ended very weird:
9 sec to go, Turkey leads by two, Italy inbounds. Turkey hacks Gallinari, who had 32 points 13/13 from the line at that point.
I was like: WTF? Hacking is okay, but don't hack Gallinari. First hits, 2nd FT rims out. Italy fouls Turkey, who also miss 1/2. Desperation attempt by Belinelli at the buzzer misses.

Europe will never be better than America at basketball, ever.

The Italy game and the France game both blacked out on ESPN3 before the end. Sounded like a great finish. Hope my Italians can pull through in a couple of games at least. Feels like you are watching the NCAA tournament watching all four at the same time. The last four games today were very good. Not a good sign for Germany that they beat Iceland by so few. I think Estonia may have put themselves as the worst team today getting trounced by the Czechs.

No. Rudy played 4 minutes at the start of the 4th.

He was pulled out and was arguing with the Coach. On the last play he set about 4 picks for Parker that resulted in no movement of anything and Parker hoisted a 3pt miss at the shot clock buzzer. That was basically how a lot of French possessions were going in the half-court whenever Rudy was involved.

And after Rudy came out, Finland started scoring layups. But posters are right, they need to throw it into him and play off him rather than having him pick and then never giving it back to him. The coach's fault in my opinion for allowing that to happen.

The best thing about Gobert is his quickness in reaching for the layups and shots. Even Whiteside lacks it and this will help Rudy a lot throughout his career.

Nah, the best thing about gobert is he is ours. Would absolutely suck to play against him 4 times a year for the rest of his career.
