Blew a 9 point 3rd quarter lead. It is not our best talent but it is still more talent than France.

This was the quarters not semis which means no chance at a medal.

They decided to attack Rudy. What did they think was going to happen?

The FIBA and Olympics are night and day from the style the NBA plays
It's why Coach K and Boeheim were a part of the coaching staff in the past because they know how to play zone and coach against zone and all the schemes international competition brings in these events.

It will be interesting to see if people care that we lost after nobody paid attention to the tournament for weeks. Probably helps that it’s football season and not July.

You do have to wonder if we would have won if Pop didn’t hate America.

You don't have to wonder for very long if your IQ is above room temperature.

This team is led by Kemba Walker, Khris Middleton and a bunch of midlevel players. We weren't playing for an Olympic qualifier.

If we truly put our best out there, I don't think a single player on this team would make that roster.
