He was clearly injured. I never questioned it for even a second.
Ooooooops. Sorry; now I know.
I believe you mean Sweden?
Sorry! I need to pay better attention!
Good game for the gold medal in basketball. USA leads France by five at half.
They just went up by 14. I wasn’t sure it was going to happen, but I think they are going to pull it off.
I kind of want the dream-team level of players to come back in 2024 so it wont’ even be close. Perhaps in 2028 we’ll get that since it is in the US.
I just want ice hockey to have the NHL players in it again. Why the heck did that stop last time?
I think it was because the owners were afraid the players would get hurt.
I’m glad it’s back, too.
From up 14 to only up 6 in just a few minutes. This is painful to watch…
USA only up 3 after a 14 point lead just minutes ago.
Tense
Missed free throws made this intense.
USA wins the gold medal in basketball, but we have to send a stronger team in the future.
I’m impressed with Kevin Durant for playing every Olympics he can. Is he really patriotic or does he just enjoy winning medals a lot? I give him mad props for playing in the Olympics and I hope he plays again in 2024. Is he well liked generally?
Note: I am fairly ignorant on basketball these days. Have not followed a lot since the Pistons declined.
I noticed the same thing. Im just grateful that he was willing to step up.
The Canada v Sweden Womans final is being replayed on USA. The Canadian GK seems to think that she is competing in the diving competition how she easily goes down.
PHI Carlo Paalam gets silver after his defeat by GBR Galal Yafai in the men’s flyweight final.
The NBC/USA coverage is so bad. They go to a commercial with 2 minutes remaining in the Can v Swe gold medal match.
Durant is a bona fide class act.
A lot of “missed” penalties in CAN-SWE. Two off the crossbar; one off a post, and the rest were stopped by the goalkeeper.
Kevin Durant in Gold Medal games:
2012: 30 points
2016: 30 points
2021: 29 points
He’s kind of the Captain America of basketball at this point.
