much of it is due to Argentina on defense. Why play the zone this early? That shot is automatic for KD if he's left that wide open.

you can't defend the NBA 3 in international ball...

Re: Team USA vs Argentina game thread (tune-up)
Team USA wears decent uniforms and start the game off hot, coincidence, I think not

Re: Team USA vs Argentina game thread (tune-up)
It's not a coincidence that every team seems to be on fire from 3 against ARG.

Re: Team USA vs Argentina game thread (tune-up)
that USA jersey beats the hell of the new one, IMO

That's because you don't watch ARG much... most teams don't seem to be on fire from 3 against them...

Then they are playing shitty comp because from what I have seen they give everybody 3 feet of breathing room on every damn shot.

Much of these shots haven't been attempted that far from the international ball 3 point line...falling into a zone should only be relied on when the other team is getting to the hole at will IMO

Then you need to pay more attention... Kobe's two 3's were contested... One of KD's 3s came with a screen... give team USA credit, they move the ball well and have great shooters...

I wouldn't call any of those shots properly contested. Especially not the Durant 3s.

oh smack, must've heard wrong
Are they usually this reliant on a zone? How did they defend Spain the other day?

Re: Team USA vs Argentina game thread (tune-up)
USA is still getting wide open looks just now missing some. They aren't contesting the 3 pt line for shit.
-
Re: Team USA vs Argentina game thread (tune-up)
Don't get me wrong DT... ARG does have defensive problems, but they're mostly with transition D and size...
