USA might be in trouble. Down 14 in the 2nd Q

Serbia is sharing the ball, US is not. Embid is a bad fit for this team.

Ant with a bad half, couple turnovers. He'll come up strong in the second. Team was pretty flat in the first quarter on defense and stagnant on offense a bit too much in the first half.

It also hurts Serbia is playing their A+ game so far. Shooting like 55% from 3.

Kerr better shake up the lineups in the 2nd half. Embid and Curry are defensive liabilities. I think they need more Bam and KD.

[thedoper]

Bookers rotations suck. If he's going to be nothing but a decoy it should be Ant.

[thedoper]

The US is going to lose. Absolute embarrassment so far. And 100% on Kerr imo.

[WildWolf2813]

If Jokic really pulls this off, he's entering top 10 all-time territory with no shot of ever dropping off the list

[Wolvesfan21]

Ant too passive. Get downhill to the rim. Most guys seem too passive though too.

Everyone is standing around watching the iso. It's a real issue between US ball and where it has gone stylistically.

Kinda reminiscent of when KAT scored 63 and everyone watched while they did nothing else and wound up losing. Curry put on a show early and while that happened, USA gave the points back

[Phenom]

US just gonna jack up shots. Might as well put Ant out there to defend.
