I've never thought that Faried would be the best player on team USA.

Neto is ballin
Good old gif, for the ones who don't drink vine.
Looking ahead to the championship game against Spain.Have no idea why Coach K thinks he needs 4 centers. Could have used another shooter.
Looking ahead to the championship game against Spain.
I feel pretty good about Neto and Gobert being very good backups for the Jazz. Gobert COULD develop into a starter, but he obviously needs to be able to do more than just score off layups and dunks.Neto is showing that he has the potential to develop into a nice piece. Maybe not a starter, but hem seems like a good fit for what Quinn Snyder reportedly wants to do offensively. I think that they'll bring him over next year if he has a good season with his new club.
Rudy has to work on his hands and his strength. He could never be offensive thread unless he can keep the ball in his hands on the low block and in the paint in general. It gets knocked off pretty easily.
And yet he's only 1 month younger than Kanter and he's been playing basketball most of his life.Agree.
Gobert's role should be similar to what he is playing right now internationally: give him 18 mins behind Favors EVERY game. That is plenty for year #2. He only played in half the games last season, so that should keep him happy and hungry for more. We're likely expecting TOO much from Gobert right now. He's still a work-in-progress.
France vs Egypt is on. Rudy in with 3 mins to go in the first.

End of the game.
Rudy with 6pts(2/2FG, 2/4FT), 6rbs, 1bl, 1to in 18 minutes
Croatia with a surprising loss to Senegal. Tomic with 14 points(1/3FG, 12/14 FT), 9rbs, 2ast, 1to. Unfortunately he again showed his absolute impotence in defending any NBA level talent - Dieng had 27 pts, 8rbs, 3 ast, 2blocks.
So in the 3 games so far, against him, Scola has scored 30, Dieng has scored 27 and Andrey Blatche had 28. And those are not even starters in the NBA.
Which Turkish player impressed you the most? Savaş? Akyol? Güler?
