The USA v France battling it out for the gold.

The USA favourites as per usual but France have the home court and home crowd advantage and they are taking it up to them.

Enjoying Andrew Gaze's commentary, he's a lot better when he talks about a sport he knows rather than one he doesn't.

Unlike Tubby Taylor and Matthew Pavlich.

You dont think tubby taylor is better at talking about sport he knows rather than one he doesnt?

You must really like taylors diving commentary then?

LeBron actually trying in defence

Sh it getting real

He got a few baskets from not getting back over the halfway line

Curry has the hot hand, nailing 3s left right and centre.

 

[Wickzki]

Felt like USA toyed with France to make it look closer than what it was. Any time France got it close they knew exactly how to get away from them. Especially Steph.

Good tournament.

Great effort from those brave underdogs the USA winning a basketball gold medal against the basketball powerhouse of France.

Yes I do.

Although I prefer his cricket commentary.

Honestly put France as the favourites in 2028. Wembey + pipeline coming through is pretty irresistible.

The USA team in 4 years feels like it’ll be a transitional one.

Be good... or be good at it.

Magbegor reminds me of people I've played with in social basketball. Will do something crazy impressive and then incapable of doing the basics like finishing a layup.

 

[drd23]

Pretty sloppy start to this bronze medal game

 

[Gak Attack]

We look awful. Both Boomers and Opals have been hurt by the pig headed coaches not changing starting lineups.

Good couple of plays in a row finally

 

[Gak Attack]

Might wanna drag Smith wtf she trying to do

 

[Drummond]

Nothing in the Olympics is unwatchable. The Opals come close though.

So stagnant, no ball movement, so many turnovers, no shooters, it’s bad.

 

[Gak Attack]

Big shot.

We've played nearly as bad as the Nigeria and US games but winning. I guess a good sign!

 

[Luuuc]

Decent start. We're clearly playing the long game here vs a fatigued opponent, running right down our bench, which I like.

 

[largebus]

A 3 point hail mary buzzer beater to lead, feels like we'll need a lot of those

 

[Gak Attack]

Does Smith realise she can pass?
