Fiba World championships
Re: Fiba World championships
No problem, I just love international ball. I honestly think the USA won’t win the whole thing. They are so shallow at center, Walker Kessler is the only player on the team who is not in the rotation. The play Banchero at backup 5. I think a team with a talented center is going to steal a game from them. Serbia would beat them if they had their full team.Coolbreeze44 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 13, 2023 6:58 pmAppreciate the notes Kek.

Spagnolo with 15/4/4 in a win against PR today. He has been Italys best player in these exhibitions and probably played himself on to the team for the World Cup. Who knows if he ever wears a wolves uni but he has been really good as of late

Re: Fiba World championships
Just wanted to also chime in that I appreciate all the International updates on our Wolves players. It's nice to come here and have it all in one spot (because I'm lazy). Thanks!
Re: Fiba World championships
I was thinking the same thing, Carlos. So I’ll add my thanks to kek for keeping us informed!Carlos Danger wrote: ↑Mon Aug 14, 2023 9:02 am Just wanted to also chime in that I appreciate all the International updates on our Wolves players.

Re: Fiba World championships
Still lurking and appreciate the updates as well. I check out the highlights from USA (for Ant obviously) but don't pay attention to other teams for Wolves players.
Re: Fiba World championships
Rudy had another really good game against Japan again
Slow Mo was Slow Mo for China
Ant is going off currently for USA against Greece, he has 21 mid way through the 3rd. I’m so excited for the season

Watching Canada vs DR.
Kat is letting it fly every time he touches it on the perimeter. Haha. It’s been successful so far

Kat with 15/5 in the 1st half as they lead Canada. He’s turned the ball over a decent amount but he’s the only NBA player on DR.
Fun watching this Kat

Re: Fiba World championships
Kat finished with 20/6 on 66% shooting. In an upset win over Canada.
Couple of things, Canada did not play their starters in the 2nd half.
You can tell DR has history playing with each other (or it seems that way) but having Kat thrown in has thrown off their offensive rhythm. They don’t know how to play around Kat.
Kat was very aggressive on offense but did not bang in the post. (What I’m cool with in this tournament)
Kat was efficient and was the reason DR lead at half.
Kat was a turnover machine in this game and became passive in the 2nd half like he does sometimes with the wolves.
NAW was solid, he was one of two Canada players that played the whole game (Dort the other). Nothing special, ran the point what was nice, good in transition and his 3 pt shot form seems a lot lower this year.
Overall solid game to watch.
I would give Kat and Naw both a B for their games. (Based on expectations). My DR to win the group bet looking solid
