France vs. Slovenia Olympics Semifinals game, 7AM ET Thursday

[90sgoat]

Was rooting for Slovenia but France winning is a good thing. Luka must be hurt because he refuses to shoot and his teammates are just untalented. USA would win by 30 especially given the short turn around. They literally play tomorrow.

France just have more elite players, Fournier, De Colo, Batum, and a bunch of decent role players Luwavu, Gobert, Yabusele.

Doncic really is an incredibly leader, which shows that despite shooting like shit, he makes the team much better.

Fatigue huh?

I hope he learns something from these two very similar exits in the NBA and FIBA.

Needs to figure out how to contribute while spending less energy = spotting up and posting up.

Posting up requires tons of energy. Its basically wrestling. The real problem is doncic doesn't have star help. But his teammates do have a ton of heart.

1 point game.

Holiday on Luka in the more physical game would be fun to watch.

[Kblaze8855]

Stepback game winner?

[90sgoat]

Damn, what an ending!

Congrats to France, but Slovenia was the real people champs.

Luka is so lucky this isn’t the nba where making even the good pass gets you crucified.

[DoctorP]

France escapes.

Hmm, I disagree, just needs to be selective about it.

[tpols]

WOW. Batum. Now that's a GOAT block.

No, that was weak by Luka.

Dribbled too much.

Probably hurt tho as you said, hasn't taken a shot in like the last 3 minutes.

[SATAN]

Holy shit that block

[90sgoat]

Holy shit that block

Old man found his hops from pure adrenaline lol

[insight]

Doncic playing poorly, annoucers trying to come up with every excuse in the book, fatigue from playing too many minutes, then he could not shoot because he was playing with one hand after running into the divider. Slovenia played well, and Doncic did the majority of the olymipics, I don't understand all the excuses.
