That possession just showed what is so frustrating about this US team. Kyrie with some fancy dribbling, no passes, and then a contested jumper.

yep, our offensive philosophy is so terrible especially when Faried and Davis have been damn near impossible for teams to guard

James Harden has turned it on. Playing well on both ends there.

I love how they intentionally foul on every break. Never gets called.

I was watching a game in the group stage and i believe it was Kyrie who swiped at a ball on a layup and got called for an intentional. i thought that was rich.

Fair to say that James Harden reads TigerDroppings.

Or Harden realized he was playing like dogshit and decided to get himself to the line and start playing D.

It worked.

We are going to have to play our best to beat Spain, and even then it's going to be tough

If we play like they were at the end of the 3rd, they will win.

If they even have a 5 minute stretch like the played in the first half, they will get beat.
