  • Once again, Canadian pundits are completely under estimating the French team.
  • As for Canada & France's Game - One reason that Canada lost was they did not take advantage when Rudy Gobert and Wemby were on the bench. France was just too big anyways. If Canadians Andrew Wiggins & Zach Edey would have played, it possibly could have been a different outcome. (Although I'm not 100% sure) because the rest of the team (besides 2) played dreadful. SGA was the most effective on the court and played a good-solid game with 27 pts. R.J. Barrett pitched in with 16 pts. There's not much else to say. Except France was a better team than Canada.
  • At least, Canada Team enjoyed "L'Arc" nightclub in Paris before the game. 😁🇨🇵
  • At the end of the day it comes to a simple thing. Canada was outplayed. France is just a better then Canada. It as simple as that.
  • The refs were brutal, what game were these guys watching.
  • @mydog337
    Nuggets were favorites to reach the finals, Canada favorites to medal. Murray's horrible play is the correlation...embarasing defense.
  • Needed Tristan Thompson and wiggins desperately to defend big bodies playing the 4 spot. Jamal was completely trash and Kelly was unplayable, just like his last 2 months with the raptors his shot is gone.
