Yeah, but can he shoot 5-10 from the free throw line?

Probably not:


But he can throw it down at least:

[Brazil]

can anyone translate that?

Basically he is mad at Ian because he did not respect the game plan defined by the coach... France was winning easy but Parker wanted to make sure team was staying focused not playing "easy" and not respecting opponents.

Pau being called "too physical" in FIBA

Argentina can't get anything in the paint in LARGE part b/c of Pau.

Better than Manu's trademark end of quarter fadeaway bricks.

France and Argentina resting their best players, tbh.

Gasol shooting over 50% from three.... Holy .

Shot 5/5 last game

A couple of fun facts: This is the first game in the history of the Olympics where there's more than one player who has scored 500+ in the compe ion (Manu,Luis,Pau)
Also those 3 put together have scored more than 28 of the other 57 players in the Olympics together
