For anyone who is awake: PSA
Greece vs Spain men’s basketball in a few mins on E! Channel
Giannis has utter contempt for the rim
Canada vs Australia
Sga two early fouls
Giddy actually does look pretty good
But **** you Australia
I’ll take a **** in a kangaroo’s pouch and you will sit in there
I can’t believe cbc aka Canada’s national broadcaster for the Olympics…
Man they were ****ing showing relays of swimming. While the mfing national team is playing.
I hate swimming.
Brooks can you make a ****ing shot please
Also I am prepared to say I was wrong about the Giddey/Caruso trade
Giddey's passing is sick
Team USA rematch w South Sudan at 3pm on USA Network. Characters Welcome!!!
Coverage starts 245pm.
Oh Canada! Suck it Spain
murray is picking up where he left off from the nba playoffs
cant even get mins over brooks dort
Shai and RJ are killing it.
Canada advances but I really want to know what the bracket is cause I can't find it after basic googling.
When is Canada playing the US is the real question.
i guess there's a draw for the knockout round, which is pretty weird and probably rigged, knowing the olympics
A draw after the preliminary round will decide the pairings, where a seeded team played an unseeded team. Teams qualified will be divided into four pots:
Pot D comprises the top two-ranked first-placed teams from the group phase.
Pot E comprises the lowest ranked first-placed team and the best-ranked second-placed team from the group phase.
Pot F comprises the remaining second-placed teams from the group phase.
Pot G comprises the two best third-placed teams.
Draw principles:
Teams from Pot D will be drawn against a team from Pot G and a team from Pot E against a team of Pot F.
Teams from the same group can not be drawn against each other in the quarterfinals.
Murray stinks. His dad needs to run him through drills like the old days
Went to watch both evening games and Franz is the man.
Wemby has a long way to go offensively

Right now (assuming the US wafflestomps PR tomorrow):
1) US
2) Germany
3) Canada
4) Serbia if they win tomorrow/France unless South Sudan wins by >8
5) France if Serbia wins or South Sudan wins by >8/South Sudan if they win by <8
6) Australia
7) Serbia if they lose (but don't get blown all the way the **** out)/Brazil if South Sudan loses by EXACTLY 1 pt
8) Greece if South Sudan loses by >2 points/South Sudan if they lose by EXACTLY 1 pt
Then:
1/2 play 7/8
3/4 play 5/6
With one pair on each side of the bracket, so to answer Chilly's question, USA v. Canada could be either the semis or finals, but not sooner
I think that about covers it...hopefully
RJ Barrett is the equivalent of Olympic Melo.
I remember hearing how gruesome his training was. Then at the very end iirc he had to make 10 free throws nothing but net or he couldn’t end the drills.
Edit: in a row. Yeah if I remembered that correctly that’s kinda tantamount to child abuse.
USA is -36 vs Puerto Rico in basketball at 11:15am EST
and -50000 ML lol
I imagine some people are putting down $20,000 to win $40.
Because $20,000 isn't cool. $20,040 is cool.
Point diff should never be used as a tie breaker in basketball imo

Big3 solved replay reviews with Bring The Fire. You hit the button and the two players play one-on-one for the point
Turned on the TV and Chase Budinger is out there crushing beach volleyball
