    D Wade had a good point, when Victor sets his feet, he usually shoots well.
    Wemby needs to clean up a his shot selection, but he goes from great offensively to unguardable when his off-dribble three is going.

    82-79, then Curry nailed all those triples. That's tough.

    Edit : I should still congratulate team USA. Big semi-finals and finals games against tough compe ion. It was no cakewalk. They earned it.

    It's the Olympics in his home court

    Take it easy. He won't be doing that in the spurs, Einstein

    No it's not. It's how passion turns to growth. He play well and just lost to players who're further along on their journeys that him. He needs to take these losses and learn from them. I don't think there's an emotional response that I'd prefer him have.

    Feel bad for Wemby. Hope he has another shot or two to get the Gold Medal in 2028 and 2032.

    No genius

    The spurs of today are bottom feeders


    He would not do that in a decent team

    Nothing wrong with showboating so long as it's not taunting players. It's horrible to make fun of people who are worse than you. But playing to the crowd is just part of the entertainment. Why have Steph Curry if you aren't getting Steph Curry?
    Exactly!! This is exciting stuff to me. Being a Spurs fan and seeing Duncan do things “the right way” has really ruined some of our fan’s enjoyment of entertaining compe ion. I love my Spurs but man I can really appreciate and enjoy what those guys must be feeling out there. I’m not a talkative person but when I get in the court in pickup a different side of me comes out. It’s not even disrespectful stuff that he’s doing he’s just enjoying competing and playing to the crown. People don’t seem understand that for some reason.

    You're right you know. And now that I recall Jordan sobbed uncontrollably on the lockerroom floor after the 1996 ring

    Some good words from curry there in this interview. Coming off pretty humble here. I'm paraphrasing as I don't remember it all (edit : rewound it to get some more of what he said). Get to your spot and be under control. You've taken those shots countless times in the gym. You have a rhythm, just be decisive. You live with the results, there's a lot of faith in it. You just let it go and live with the results, and thankfully the work took over. Some good advice for all players there. Great question from Mike Tirico. Nice honestly on that last one too. That's a heave when you're a little tired, so thankfully it went in.

    Definitely something Victor can take away from this experience. He played great at his age and hasn't played in as big of games of some of these US players have. Pretty solid game from Victor.

    His age is ideal for the Olympics because he'll have three more tournaments in his prime.

    All he'll need is one all-star teammate and a bunch of good role players. FIBA rules don't require as much star power.
