Probable weren't going to win anyways.
If Argentina plays like this, they'll beat a team of Spain's caliber imo

Did you put money on this?
Sorry if you did....![]()
If the US plays like this they might lose to a team of Spain's caliber, tbh.
Agreed
I'm surprised LeChoke even hit one of his free throws.
We will have a really good idea about this in the next exhibition game which happens to be against Spain
good game... I didn't think ARG would keep it this close, tbh
Team USA needs to stick to what works... Lebron and Durant, tbh
Good game for Argentina, obvious improvement from the Spain game.
The US is really a two men show, with zero presence down low.
If I'm Spain, I like my chances.
Final score
USA 86
Argentina 81
The bright spots for argentina are that his back up point guard is more than valuable. Delfino is still a great player. The compe iveness is still there and that is arg main weapon over any other team, they might not have the same legs but with fierce compe iveness they might get some upsets.
The brightspot for Argentina is that they don't have to play a team so much better than them each time out.
Was really pleased to see Manu dominate that second half.

lol SportingNews
The U.S. Olympic basketball team dressed like the Dream Team for Sunday's game against Argentina. Too bad it didn't put a full effort into the game. Final score: U.S. 86, Argentina 60.
tbh when Manu is being Manu, he's still the best 2 guard in the world and it's not even close.
Wow, its not even close huh? Some dude named Kobe would like to have a conversation with you. He agrees its not even close though.
Team USA should play the Spurs
US played like crap
Spain will beat them in the Olympics to be honest.
To be honest the 1992 Dream Team didn't face teams with NBA players on them.
Argentina has 3/4. Manu alone would make the game compe ive.
even spur fans underrate ginobili
i see other people put him in the tier of joe johnson/monta
ginobili is the best at getting to the rim of kobe/wade and hitting free throws
wade is good at splitting double teams but he cant finish anymore
kobe gets to the rim maybe once a game now
ginobili is also easily the best 3 point shooter/shooter
i know kobe put up some of the worst numbers ever for an all star 2 guard shooting wise and wade i dont even wanna bother
kobe/ginobili are the same defensively
wade is the best but only because of his elite athleticsim
ginobili is easily the best passer/playmaker
wade and kobe are good but theyre iso guys
you cant really put the ball in their hand and run an offense like you can with ginobili
ginobili is also imo more clutch then kobe and easily wade
kobe is a volume shooter who goes 0/9 then might make the last shot so he gets a reputation of being clutch
ginobili makes the shots before that and the final ones
hes also one of the few players ive seen who have won games getting steals/blocks/assists/getting to the foul line/drawing charges/flops
the other guys just score, manus won games without the ball in his hands
Manu didn't have such a great game, tbh... he did play good for spurts, especially in the 3rd... but at this stage in his career that's all he's probably going to give you... With games every other day, ARG will need to rely more on Delfino for consistent production...
