Canada Basketball

[rightsideup]

A lot of mistakes by both teams but experience won out

[MACK11]

I cannot believe what I just watched

As of right now I have zero expectations for team Canada.

[stretch]

I'm shocked. Such a great tournament for Canada unravels at the most critical moment. Wow.

[rocwell]

well chin up y'all.

NBA bout to begin.

23 days until 1st game vs Clippers [pre season]
48 days until season opener.

Thank God I've been a Raptors fan for 20 years. At least I am semi-prepared for this kind of crushing dissappointment. I know the sun will come up tomorrow.

Just a lousy nite handling the ball... We had 17 !! .. count'em 17 !! turnovers. Some were laughably bad. It was like we had the curse of Rasul Butler all over us.

Would have been nice to play in Rio next year but they had their chance and just didn't close.

Heck throw in being a Toronto sports fan overall .. Leafs up 4-1 just one example ..

I have to listen to this Argentina vs Mexico game on more because Leo is fucking pissing me off

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU CONDESCENDING PRICK. CANADA SHOULD HAVE WON THIS GAME STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR THEM. YOU IDIOT!

Add that, 3 years of Triano coaching with NBA talent, you had to know things were about to even out

Steve Nash has made a lot of coaches look smarter then they really are

[MACK11]

This Argentina vs Mexico game is a barn burner so far

Scola and Nocioni haven't left the court

Ayon hasn't left the court for Mexico



And Triano put Wiggins and Stauskas on the bench for way to long. In games like this you ride you're starters. Doornekamp and Scrubb aren't gonna do better than Wiggins or Stauskas.

Steve Nash has made a lot of coaches look smarter then they really are

And still is, even when not playing

[MACK11]

Wiggins has also got to learn from this. As the best player in a must win game you cannot have only 9pts and be invisible for the majority of the game.
