Boogie at the Olympics

Really hard to watch team USA wipe the floor with other teams so easily. Really not much point to it. I'd rather have some college kids be the underdogs.

Interesting... I can't say as though that's the first time I've heard that particular sentiment but, usually, I only hear it expressed by #IHateTheNBA guy, not by actual NBA fans.

It's much harder to watch team USA lose with the college kids -- as they did in '88 and other years. All the other countries are playing their pros and best players, there's no reason we shouldn't do the same. Let them catch up.

She’s got some footwork, but I’m top dog,” Cousins said. “I told her she’s the third-best post player here behind me and DJ (DeAndre Jordan). She’s a little mad about that.”
Oh come on Boogie, give her more credit than that. She's probably a better actual post player than DeAndre "Pick and Lob" Jordan.

Boogie with two fouls early again. The combination of quick whistles and what seems to be a focus on bodying up guys on defense isn't working in Boogies favor. They don't like big men bang much.

HMM. Team USA trailed Australia by 5 at the half and only won by 10. At one point, Australia had 5 NBA'ers on the floor at the same time and don't even have Ben Simmons participating.
Why anybody would still want a collegiate roster is beyond me.

gee, can't imagine how Raduljica could have been in foul trouble.

also, USA's backside defense on bigs has been awful. Whenever Boogie steps out everybody else is playing like a superstar prima donna.

I'm on a few other sites now and most are blaming Boogie for it. What I see is KD being EXTREMELY lazy and not doing anything when his guy beats him and the team switches.
