Women’s Basketball

[Fastbreak 4023]

Women in trouble early against Germany.

[Underdog 29132]

C'mon, Ladies!  Do it for Pearl Harbor! 

[Fastbreak 4023]

Took care of business. Young was dominant.

[kingkoopa6 8616]

Our lady 3 ball got better. 
 

we look way better than first couple games 

[kingkoopa6 8616]

Nevermind. Still ass 

Although I felt refs robbed us.

[AbeFroman 3106]

Not much better.

[Fastbreak 4023]

Not much better.

Young was 5-8

[Js1 87148]

USA up 45-27 on the Aussies at the half in the semifinals 

[Ghost of LL 15681]

Jesus--this is fucking embarrassing for the Kiwi-haters.

They were 15 pt dogs.  

[Js1 87148]

USA into the gold medal game, 85-64 over the Aussies 

[WBT 20950]

The whole arena belting out La Merseillaise is still cool after 2 weeks of hearing it

France fouls too much. Which is to our advantage since we are being sloppy with the ball 

[alincoln 2390]

And airballing multiple 3 footers

[Napoleon 8822]

🇫🇷 is playing with a lot of spirit. 

I don’t like that. 

[WBT 20950]

Sloppy game so far.  France would have to feel good about holding us to 15 in the 1Q but they only scored 9.

[alincoln 2390]

France holding an arm on every rebound.  

[conVINCEd 21477]

This is bad basketball.

Yeah, passing is terrible so far for USA

In honor of France, the U.S. is mass producing turnovers 

[alincoln 2390]

Griner makes 3 layups in a row and then doesn’t touch the ball for 5 possessions. 

[Napoleon 8822]

They need the two super rookies. 

Damn these girls are idiots. 

[WBT 20950]

Is 11 turnovers in 14 minutes not good?

[alincoln 2390]

Unforced TOs, missed layups, dropped RBs.  Awful basketball

[Js1 87148]

Lazy rebounding and even worse passing. 

[alincoln 2390]

They look hungover

Laughable how lazy USA is playing...

[Js1 87148]

France is +15 on shot attempts due to rebounding and turnovers

France leading feels like Rollie's Villanova championship team...

How about 14 turnovers in 1st half….Vic could probably bite a nail in half.

[Js1 87148]

USA should be up double digits if they didn’t just throw the ball away so carelessly 

Tied at half 

[GopherRock 1773]

Oof. The ladies are lucky to be tied at the half. They are playing like shit. 

[alincoln 2390]

France should be ashamed to be tied

[Cairn Horn88 8502]

Probably the worst women’s basketball I’ve ever seen…ever.

[Napoleon 8822]

I think that this head coach sucks.

Dawn Staley wouldn’t put up with this shit.

Yep. They are doing a good job of killing the momentum that the women’s game has experienced this year. 

[alincoln 2390]

Caitlin isn’t good enough they said

Why isn't Becky Hammon coaching. She's only won the last 2 wnba titles. 

[Mo Horn 8937]

Hit your fucking layups

[conVINCEd 21477]

This is just terribly ugly.  Which confuses me.  In almost all the other women’s sports I’ve watched during the Olympics, the woman produce a compelling product.  Are they as big, strong, and fast as their male counterparts?  No.  But in watching them compete, their elite skills/talent shine through.  Track, soccer, and volleyball are the first that pop into my head, but there are plenty of others as well.  Watching all of those events, I thought these are some very talented women competing at a very high level.  Here we have the best team in the world, undefeated this millennium, unable to execute basic skills like dribbling, passing, holding onto a rebound, and making a layup.  It baffles me.

 

[LTtxfan 49948]

Script being written for DT to help USA win 🙄

8-0 run France

[Cairn Horn88 8502]

Would be huge upset if this crap continues.

[WBT 20950]

would be fun to be in that arena right now

This coach fucking sucks. 

At least put DT in to settle them down. My god they are trash.

[Ted Lange 16396]

Serious USA/Russia 1980 Miracle on Ice vibes, with the US now playing the part of Russia.

[Mo Horn 8937]

Grinner came in and dominated the paint. Then they pulled her and she hasn't been back in since. 

[WBT 20950]

10-0 run in the first 2:40 of the 3Q

[Js1 87148]

Garbage 

[WBT 20950]

Lulz, nice help d there
