That’s the best game in USA Olympic game ever, right?
Better than 2008 Spain.
LeBron, Curry AND KD all cooking.
17-point comeback.
Against the best player in the world.
The full Embiid rollercoaster.
Bogdanovic and Carmelo yapping.
It had everything. – 5:15 PM

Jokic is the constant outlet for any ball pressure Team USA puts on the ball handler, especially when Embiid is playing defense in the lane.

Stephen Curry just wanted to feel like one of the Olympians. During the July 26 opening ceremonies, he was floating down the Seine River on the Team USA boat, surrounded by hundreds of elite athletes. But the Golden State Warriors star’s celebrity status kept getting in the way of this once-in-a-lifetime experience. “I didn’t feel like just one of (the athletes) at first, because people were coming up to me saying, ‘Can I have a picture with you?’” said Curry, who, at 36, is competing in his first Olympics. “It was that type of vibe. I had to actually stop and tell them, like, ‘No, I want to know who you are, what you do and level the playing field, because you’re here for a reason too.’” -via New York Times / August 8, 2024
