They are quite touchy but that's how international ball rolls sometimes. Luckily as you said they're draining everything.

Kyrie Irving is on that next level poo poo.

8 according to espn http://scores.espn.go.com/fiba/boxscore?gameId=400584539

edit: It's so dumb of the commentators to call this America's C team because we don't have Durant or George. It's clearly our B team.

Yeah, like sure we don't have any of the top 5 players on the planet, but other than Plumlee the team is comprised of like the next 10-15 guys on that list

It's funny that the Serbians plan at this point seems to be "we're definitely going to lose, maybe we can make you look like bullies while you beat us up?"

Edit: Cousins responding by flattening everyone who opposes him in the paint. Awesome.

Someone did a pretty big analysis of players who suffered Rose's injury and the average was about 2 months into the season before they stopped shooting abysmal %

Team USA will dominate the Olympics with better players. The battle to see who gets to face the US in the next gold medal game might be interesting.
