Trust me I know. I look at the competition + the actual play to see if it'll translate to NBA though - not just numbers. He was looking athletic, confident and doing it vs. 3 good NBA big men. I was impressed. Not saying he's gonna drop 25 ppg next year or anything like that though.

Do you use an app to follow casts or is it all on the computer?

Spain has looked really good thus far but I still like Team USA's chances if they can up the continuity on offense and the consistency on defense.

Why is Rose, off the friggin bench, taking more shots than Harden in the tournament thus far?
And to make it worse, he's shooting 22%. Dude missed the last 2 years, the last 3 playoffs, and he's chucking his heart out.
but I guess Thibs wanted his guy on the team so he could round into NBA form quicker. Despicable.
We are extremely fortunate that the usual suspects are either aging or dealing with injuries.

You need to settle down.
Rose took 8 shots, 4 shots and 6 shots. While playing a ton of garbage time. He's not chucking his heart out. He's taken more shots than Harden because Harden would rather get to the FT line than actually take a shot.
"Despicable"
He's not playing great but he's playing alright and doing some good things out there. Still clearly trying to mesh with the team. Definitely not the disaster you're trying to make it out to be.

Spain is going to a problem, Spain at full strength has given USA problems with the A team
Because as we all know getting into the paint drawing contact is a bad thing.

Sounds like dude is looking at the box scores instead of watching the games
Harden definitely looks to score more than Rose does. If he wasn't getting to the line, Harden's shot attempts would be a lot higher

I'm explaining why Harden's FGA are low... not saying it's a bad thing.

Watching today's game, maybe 2 of Rose's 6 shot attempts were bad shots. The rest was good, but his ability to finish at the basket is pretty substandard for what we're used to. Maybe one of his drives could've been called a foul but they didn't, so that's an extra shot attempt. But Rose is a chucker now

Technically, it is legal to have 1 Naturalized player on your team regardless of the ethnicity.Lol, if other countries are going to cheat, why stop at Africans. Should've went for African Americans and hit them with that dual citizenship.
See, Filipinos know how to cheat right
Now it's too late for everyone =(
The only thing that alarmed them is that some countries went as far as getting 4 or more players (mostly Africans) and changing their citizenship to beef up their squad. Hence, they came up with such a rule.
Before the rule was implemented, Philippines tapped the services of Fil-Foreigners with proven Filipino blood and Filipino citizenship so no cheating happened. They are considered locals.
The rule almost cost us a game in the 2011 FIBA Asia Tourney where Chris Lutz (Purdue/Marshall) & Marcio Lassiter's (Cal State Fullerton) citizenship were questioned, thus prohibiting them for suiting up for the 1st half of a game. Good thing they already played some FIBA tourneys prior to the Asian Championships.

Watching this Spain-Brazil tape.
Yeah this Spain-USA game looks like a pick em, the continuity and chemistry with Spain squad might be the difference, Rudy/Marc/Pau/Jaun Carlos have been playing together their whole lives and it's so evident, the passing and ball movement is vicious.
might be too much for Team USA's squad of bad defenders playing vanilla defense.

No team has broke 80 against the US yet. Maybe there has been defensive lapses but the defense is hardly vanilla.
USA been going on some nice runs too, must notably that 27-1 turnaround with Finland in the 2nd quarter. I don't think Finland had a field goal in the 2nd quarter. You don't do that playing 'vanilla' defense lol
You need to play defense to make those kind of runs
I do worry about Spain's chemistry.
