Wemby needs to clean up a his shot selection, but he goes from great offensively to unguardable when his off-dribble three is going.
Welp, Manu and Oberto still the only Spur players with a Gold Medal.

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
Only for pussies
Wemby is such a compe or ... he is the youngest there with such a bright career in front of him but he still takes this loss the hardest
Gotta give to Tatum, he took it all this very well, like a pro
I’m calling it now, the US isn’t winning the gold in 2028
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.
What? He does that with the Spurs all the time.
Wemby is such a class act for someone his age
if it wasnt on home turf I would jump on this train ... but give it another decade and these tornaments will all be wide open
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
think bro
Look at recent drafts, and how many french guys went top 10. It's gonna be USA - France going forward
Victor had nothing to hang his head or cry about …
He didnt play well in the semifinals but for his FIRST gold medal game he showed up and showed out …
As for you Spur fans especially the Mags ones I know yall wasn’t rooting against team USA?!
lol
How is being passionate a bad look?![]()
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.
Wemby is gonna win gold somewhere down the road, book it.
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.
