Great game. Old head iso snuck out with talent. Nice to see them D up at the end.

That was a nail biter. If they didn't play with their food for 3 quarters and make it a game. Fuck. Too stressful.

Props really to Bogdon and Jokic though and the others. They played a great game.

They could have fouled out Jokic if they kept running downhill at him all game. Just drive to the hoop and make him foul or give up a layup. Though they did seem to set up a wall and leave corner threes a bit open. Serbia played a great game.

Typical America needing a Cameroon man to beat Serbia

Did Ant get much run in the 2nd half?

Like 3-4 minutes. Kerr went pretty much starters (Curry, Durant, Embiid, Bron, Book) the entire 4th. Ant was playing passive after turning over a couple times in the 1st, then missing a couple open corner 3's in the 3rd. He didn't have it today. Luckily Steph was on fire.

Ant was not good today. Had a couple of chances to hit open 3s in the 3rd Q and if he hits those he probably closes the game. He was gambling a lot on defense today also, probably shouldn’t do that against a Jokic lead team.

First bad game from Ant.


Kerr rotations were pathetic. Good on Curry, Lebron, Embiid and KD (who was not good until the end) for saving the USA
