    Re: Team USA Men's Olympic Basketball 2012

    The day this comes on some outsiders come to the company and instead of using the main floor they come to mine to use the conference room where the huge 55 inch LED 3d tv is at and I cant watch it

      That was the most fun I've had watching a slaughter in a long time. Those two Tunisia fans who were going wild when they were losing by 40 cracked me up

        Impressed with Tunisia though.

        Anyone else kind of bummed that Doug Collins is coaching instead of commentating? He's a fantastic analyst.
        No... but I'm a 76ers fan lol.

            You know I wish we could have sent a Division III college team to play Tunisia. So that we could've seen a more competitive game and better team cohesion.

                This Team USA is going to rip everybody they play. It was sad seeing them troll around with Tunisia in the 2nd half.

                  You do realize Tunisia is the worst team in the field right. They were something like 56 point underdogs...

                  That's already not been the case during the exhibitions..

                    No, I didn't realize that Ex. I thought Tunisia and their excellent Basketball Development Program that they've been running for decades would've helped them significantly in their game.

                    I guess I can add Tunisia to the list of countries I don't have worry about them "closing the gap" between us and them.

                    Anyway, wake me up when someone actually gives us a challenge for more than 10 minutes in a game and we don't beat the crap out of them.

                      Lol, OK man. Just checkin because I see no point in you posting what you did, but good stuff. Once again you sound like a funny guy.. tryin way too hard at this point

                      Don't expect Tunisia or Nigeria to challenge the U.S., those two are the worst in the field.

                      And I guess you didn't watch the Brazil game bro...

                        Can I get in on this arrogant American tip?

                        Ball movement is for chumps.

                        Our talent pool has always been so large where as other countries cant afford to have misses. When a "Golden Generation" comes along they have to max it out. Same thing happens with smaller European countries like Spain and the Dutch in soccer.

                          Trying way too hard? I guess so.

                          And yeah I saw the Brazil game and they looked like **** out there and I said it at the time. But if you want to use that one game to back up your claim that the rest of the world is catching up then go right ahead. I got plenty of gameS that say otherwise.

                            What is it with you and this? Lol. You're trying to make this out like I said the entire world is catching up and closing the gap and that every team in the field would test the U.S. Tunisia? Are you really serious with that?

                            Trust me, if the USA blows everyone out including Spain and Argentina, it wouldn't surprise me in the least.

                            My point was if you or anyone else expects the USA to **** on everyone and say they have no excuses not to, then that sounds really naive and arrogant. There are a few countries in the field not named Spain and Argentina who could for one game, give USA a serious challenge. A blowout shouldn't be expected in every game.

                            You said wake you up when a country gives the USA a serious challenge for more than 10 minutes.. welp, the Brazil game happened a few weeks ago and I'd say that was a pretty severe challenge.

                            And LOL at you saying you have plenty of games that say otherwise.. awesome bro. More great stuff.

                              The Brazil game was a complete outlier, not something to expect. They shot 63% in the first quarter, and we were 1-12 from 3 in the first half. That's not likely to happen again. You say it wouldn't surprise you if we blew out everyone, but that it's arrogant, to expect us to blow out everyone. We are the best team in the world, by a large margin, and yes there are a number of games that prove just that. The field is better than it was in 1992, but should we be expected to lose any game, or for that matter, not win any game by a fairly large margin? No. We blew out the number 2 team in the world by 22 points, forgive us for not expecting us to blow out teams considerably worse than them.
