    We have to hope for the Dominican to lose a game, that way we have a better chance of qualifying for the Olympics next year, if I’m not mistaken we will play Brazil most likely next?

    Score doesn’t show but Olynyk’s impact was huge in this game. He started the run in the second quarter when the whole team was struggling. SGA is him. Once he got comfortable the game was over.

    All things being equal, the incredible score differential the team has banked in this first round is going to be a huge advantage.

    If there are three Americas team that all finish with one loss and the same record it
    would we have the tiebreak.

    Awesome win but 11/22 (50%) in FTs is rough. I wonder if the slight difference in distance messes with NBA players’ muscle memory. Just read that in the NBA it’s a 15 foot FT vs 15.09 in FIBA
