OT: Paris 2024 Summer Olympics: Games of the XXXIII Olympiad

[Halladay]

Kerr sat Steph and LeBron the last 2.5 minutes of the quarter. What do you expect Steve?

 

[FLYguy3911]

Embiid just can’t win the big one.

For KD or Edwards to take over?

 

[Flybynite]

Durant is useless this game

That entire second unit has screwed the US over today. They're all double-digit minus +/-

Embiid just can’t win the big one.

Just like the playoffs it will be another game where Embiid has a positive +/-, but his teammates lose the game.

 

[Jack Straw]

Steph leads the team in rebounds

 

[Cody Webster]

Jokic spins Booker out of the way to get open then initiates the contact and gets the and 1 call

Welcome to the game KD

 

[Halladay]

For KD or Edwards to take over?

Both have been terrible this game. The ball seems to stop with Edwards.Edward's. I would think one of LeBron or Curry needed to be out there all game. Team also struggling to rebound.

Us will still win

 

[Curufinwe]

Embiid tried to blow it but Lebron and Curry wouldn't let him

Now Durant forces a back court violation.

USA win 95-91

 

[Tripod]

Great game

 

[Cody Webster]

What a win!

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Basketball at the highest level is about stars. Always has been, always will be.

 

[Curufinwe]

Wow, Jokic missed all six 3's that he took.

Embiid must have been exhausted when had those two poor plays near the end. He was the 2nd stop scorer for the US with 19 points on 8/11 shooting.

Yeah the disparity in talent eventually took over.

 

[DancingPanther]

Excellent, f*** Jokic.

Catching up on all the track from today. What a day for the US. Syd McLaughlin is automatic, holy shit! Grant Holloway smoked em too, only one who couldn't get it was Lyles which stinks, but that Jamaican ran a great race. Lyles just didn't have that patented closing speed today, ironically in his best event

 

[DancingPanther]

They just said that Lyles has Covid.

No f***ing way. And he has pretty had asthma too! Imagine winning Olympic bronze at what, 40% health? That is so sad for him, imagine how unfair that feels.

I've seen him give interviews before and he talked about how he had asthma since he was a kid and it's something he tries to deal with. He was very careful during COVID to isolate and mask/wash his hands to try and avoid it because any kind of respiratory disease/infection can be worsen asthma.

So even just a mild symptom from covid is probably not good for it.

Man I really need to back read sometimes lol

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Did you guys hear them mention that Serbian dude "Uterus"? Seriously, I heard that - I'm not making a joke.

Maybe Lyles should not have come out jumping all around pre-race and save it all for the race.

 

[Embiid]

Auguri!

Et tu Lizzo?

 

[swami24]

That's Rhino toe, not camel.

Lyles... so he tests positive for covid, with a history of asthma. If team docs tested him, why did they allow him to raxe at all, and to walk around other racers unmasked. He is bouncing all over the place before the race. Afterwards, he hugs the winner, and then immediately on the ground.. wheelchaired off by medical staff, but not masked. He gets interviewed masked. Why wouldn't hug the winner if he knew he had Covid? It is a story that seems to have some awfully large questions.

Definitely wondering if this comes out if he won the 200...

French men's basketball winning their semifinal game is significant to some

 

[Mkoll]

Bogdan going for the layup and elbowing Embiid in the face and getting the and 1 is top tier insane.

great game though

I hope Embiid scores the game winning shot for gold
