Canada Basketball

What a great 1st game, France got obliterated

[MixxAOR]

No Murray. No problem

The game turned when Gobert elbowed Olynyk. We got 2 points and the ball and never looked back.

Too bad the forums are busted cause this would have been a great day to talk Canada basketball. What a team performance and SGA putting on a show. Could tell they were too amped up and nervous at the start but once they settled in they just completely dominated France. A really good French team. Beat them in every aspect of the game. Wow.

I thought it was just me .. Holly crap it is frustrating trying to post . Are they looking into it .. Cause everyone on this
thread have been waiting to talk about a Canada game in a World Cup that we win by 30.

The game against Lebanon is at 5:45am on Sunday. So yeah that's a PVR.
Latvia beat Lebanon by 39. So will be interesting to see if we can beat that mark.

France is good guys, NBA talent and a squad that's been together a while. We fucking smashed them.

Canada is gonna win the gold, calling it now.

Canada doesn't have a traditional FIBA big man, yet we absolutely dominated the boards and the paint. Great coaching by Jordi Fernandez.

[planetmars]

That was unexpected. 30 point win against France.. Canada is real.

[golden]

FIBA Olynyk is our Luis Scola.

Team Canada looking gooood. Point differential matters. Gotta keep kicking les butts.

[planetmars]

Canada just owned them in that 3rd quarter.. Up 20 going to the 4th

[planetmars]

Shai is awesome. Up 15 now

[planetmars]

Canada up by 3 at the half... Shai and RJ not having great games. Canada has been pretty bad from 3 outside of NAW who hit a couple of big ones. And Fournier is going ham. I believe he has 20 points at the half. So despite all that they have the lead.. so that's a pretty good sign. Canada is playing well defensively though. And that has to be their strength. And Olynyk needs to stay out of foul trouble.
