The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) ON ESPN right now. No one posted the thread, so I decided to make one myself. I didn't post it in the Gameday thread, but the mods can move it there if there if they please. US doesn't look all that sharp in the first. Durants on fire though.

Make It Naaaashty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Starters started really slow to start the game, Durant and the bench have about 20 of the 26 points lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Coach Calipari coaches the Dominican Republic team? I could have swore that was him. Edit: Wow, that is him. Not sure why he wanted any part of this team lol. Edited July 13, 2012 by Simba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 USA's defense looks solid but their offense is pretty damn shitty so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Durant 4-4 from 3 pt range. With the closer 3 in FIBA, this is like a chip shot for Durant Make it 5-5 now, skinny [expletive]aaa on fireeee..

The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 USA's defense looks solid but their offense is pretty damn shitty so far. Well they're arent running anything special defensively. Just a lot of traps, the DR is just folding under the pressure. As a whole I'm not really impressed by the US thus far, they look disorganized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Yuuup. DR can't handle the ball very well at all. USA need to get on more fastbreaks, that's when they're at their best. LBJ and Melo need to stop shooting jumpers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 NBA Play - Kobe gets doubled, shoots it. Olympic Play - Kobe gets doubled, still shoots it. Some things never change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Horford is struggling against USA's athleticism. This game shouldn't even be close. Edited July 13, 2012 by Simba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Horford is struggling against USA's defense. This game shouldn't even be close. Its him against the entire USA team so he better be struggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 You know the line is too short when Iggy starts draining three's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Team USA just playing with em. Dominican Republic is god awful lol, turnover city! Melo looks great by the way. In good shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 USA's on ball pressure causing a bunch of turnovers in the third. Russell Westbrook putting in work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 Davis looked solid in his minutes. Liked seeing LBJ focus tonight on his defense and not really force the issue offensively. I think Durant and Melo are going to kill teams this Olympics but Iggy and Westbrook impressed the hell out of me on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 DR had more turnovers than field goals. Defensive dominance from team USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 How much did USA win by? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 You know the line is too short when Iggy starts draining three's. He made 76 and nearly shot 40% from 3 this past year. He is shooting 36.5% from deep over the past two years. His mid range jumper still sucks, but he has actually developed a solid three point shot over the past few years. How much did USA win by? 52 or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 You know the line is too short when Iggy starts draining three's. Hey hey...Iggy's shot really started to improve as the season went by. He better make those. EDIT: Or what BFT said lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
