Im not an expert in basketball but I do admit these games are fun to watch. Im not really rooting for team USA since they're an unbeatable team at this point.

L.A. or Boston: Your Choice.
Why is this relevant? The U.S. always wins. This is basically a competition to see who has the privilege of being crushed by America in the final.

The U.S. team should be banned from this if it wants to be a fair tournament.

This reads like an average reddit comment.

It's way better, at least the wooden floor will most likely have less flops occur. :P
Opinions, man. :P
I'd say more, but I really don't care about sports that much, so I'll just show myself out.

Well, Puerto Rico lost against Greece, but at least we're going against the Philippines next. Let's see what will happen from there on.

So we managed to beat the Philippines. It was a good playoff but we're not doing so well in this year's FIBA. We lost to Croatia a few days ago so that harms our chances of passing through. Hopefully this changes.

Hate to say it but that was a lame world cup. The hosts were knocked out to early, USA destroyed every team, and I thought teams like Slovenia and Greece shouldve done better in the knockout round.

Yeah, I thought our team would do great in this World Cup considering we have great players. But sadly it didn't turn out like I hoped.

I was watching one of these games a few days ago.. always pretty funny since the USA just sends a bunch of the younger pros to go destroy everyone. Sort of makes it less exciting to watch I guess though.
