U.S. dealt 1st Olympic men's basketball defeat since 2004

Will Snowflakes do as Snowflakes do and melt? It's sad to watch a once strongly patriotic and confident nation become "just like everyone other nation", "one in the world (ruled by China)"

Are they going to blame Trump for this, or Obama? Popovich is the coach too, how fitting.

I won't knock players who proudly represent their nation, I will knock those who bought into anti-Americanism and as I've warned, it will come at a steep price. Mainly ones potential...


The Olympics, they were supposed to be different.

They weren't. Going back to the World Cup in China two years ago, the Americans are 3-5 in their last eight games with NBA players in the lineup.

A 10-point U.S. lead in the third quarter was wasted, and so was a 12-point barrage from Holiday in the opening four-and-a-half minutes of the fourth quarter, as the Americans went from six points down to start the period, to six points up with 5:23 remaining.

The loss doesn't knock the U.S. out of medal contention, but it essentially eliminates the margin for error. The Americans play Iran on Wednesday and then the Czech Republic on Saturday in its final two Group A games; win both of those, and the U.S. will be in the quarterfinals. Lose another one, and the Americans might not even finish in the top eight of this 12-team tournament.

Their center, Rudy Gobert, was 2019 Defensive Player of the Year in the NBA. The team has five current NBA players, including Nic Batum, Evan Fournier, Frank Ntilikina and three former NBA players, including former Bull Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot.

That's a starting five, along with three subs, all of whom are playing, or have played, in the NBA.

France Wins and beats Burn, Loot, Murder. :D

So, losing a game of basketball is proof that liberals are bad?

I mean, how do you go from one to the other without shooting yourself in the head?

Who?
 
We know, you're Trumpists. You root against America.
It's fun seeing these dumb anti-American racist asshole BLM NBA players lose to France LMAO.
No one likes racist assholes.
BTW, as the NBA and NFL audience shrinks so will the dumb racist BLM player's salaries LOL
 
I have the impression that the U.S. team is five guys (on the floor) who want to play one-on-one, and not play as a coordinated, well-organized team. Usually, a good TEAM will beat a group of five stars.

The "optics" of these Olympics have been shaped by a couple of detestable, anti-American individuals (e.g., that pink-haired dyke on the wimmins' soccer team) whom the Press follow neurotically. It is a shame.
 
I am sure when you watch all of those TV stations with people making snide comments about deplorables and dregs, it should tell you why.

I don’t know if all of our basketball players said that.

I think maybe you’re just overly sensitive.
 
STFU ya fat ass dyke.
Black men in the NBA are disgrace to the country and it's obviously shown by the crash in viewership.
No one wants to watch the inferior product that is womens soccer nor do they wish to watch a bunch of American hating lesbians.
You leftist are being shown that America doesn't support your antics by voting with their wallets.
The NBA and the NFL are paying dearly for their woke attitude. The womens soccer team should feel privileged for even being on the field. The couldn't even beat a team of 15 year old boys.
NBA players proved how stupid they are---a bunch of spoiled moron decided to piss off half their viewers which they don't care if it affects the team owners but this will also affect their sponsorships down the road and future NBA players. Very stupid and very selfish.
