In rebuilding Dream Team '92, they needed a Christian Laettner.

Spoiler

Sorry, that's Melo

Has Crymelo even done anything so far?

 

[PS2 KID]

This is our worst lineup.

 

[jobber]

James Blake playing in front of a crowd of...dozens.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Is the US team really content with beating teams by 30? The Dream team averaged over a 40 point differential! They aren't redeeming shit.

Yep, because this is '92 and the level of world competition is exactly the same today.

Laettner numbers.

The starters aren't playing in the 4th quarters...

 

[Karakand]

Less than 30 point victory?

DISGRACE

US is beat Angola by 21 ffs. That is not normal, no matter how much competition has escalated. Its Angola!

 

[Shadow780]

Kobe Bryant

1/15 in 3-pointers so far:lol

 

[ph33nix]

I will never bow down to the false idol Stern has erected.

False idol? You're a joke. He was great before he tortured your pussy team. It's great to see you're still reeling though, making excuses for the rest of your life!

You wanna tell me these games are rigged too?

 

[PS2 KID]

smile

I should have gone to sleep after the first half!

Angola played hard all game. Props to them.

 

[Zep]

guys, take that shit to the nba thread.,

this is all about the US of A

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Meh.

They beat Australia by "only" 11 in the last exhibition game.

You could see that they weren't trying to exert themselves for this W.

I wouldn't read into it too much.

I expect them to get up for the last 3 teams (Greece, Spain, Germany)

 

[jobber]

Finally that garbage is off the court

Time for Manu to shine!

 

[Justin Timberlake]

Since when are the 7 players on the bench supposed to be that much worse? Its the USA team, everyone is good.

They lost the 4th quarter. They are NBA players. That shouldn't happen.

I am not going to read too much into it; I still think they are going to go all the way. But I just want to see good basketball, thats all.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Time for Manu to shine!

Manu Kleiza?

 

[DancingJesus]

Wait, where are you guys watching this? NBC is playing the shitfest that is known as the Today Show.

Are they replaying it later on tonight or something?

NBC HD Olympic Channel.

Game is over.

What channel is that being played on? Is it only on stream?

You "won" for five reasons:

1. Refs.
2. Shaq.
3. Avery.
4. JHo timeout.
5. Wade natural talent.

But go on believing the refs are fair even though at least one has proven ties with the mob and anyone can see the NBA has the worst referees in the world.

Didn't they have post production 'CG' fireworks as well?

 

[CharlieDigital]

someone remind me again why boozer is on this team? worthless...

But guys like chandler get sent home

Cuz Chandler is gonna get pushed around like a ragdoll by Baby Shaq.

Booz is going to prove his worth against teams with stronger interior players.

Not nearly as funny as their "16" year old female gymnasts.

[Shadow780]

Hey, at least they admitted~:lol

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

I don't know why people are so surprised about this. Bob Costas outright said during the opening ceremony that some of the fireworks footage they were showing was CG. It was so obvious too, the way the camera was zooming through the city. But all the far-angle, zoomed out fireworks was real I think.

 

[Justin Timberlake]

NBC HD Olympic Channel.

I have to use the stream.

 

[seanoff]

Fuck off Channel 7

I'm trying to watch the equestrian which I am sure is not live


And they keep cutting back to highlights of the day, I've now seen liesal Jones' gold medal swim and medal ceremony atleast 4 times today. please. fuck off.

actually the 3 day event show jumping was live. it was on ABC radio at the same time.

It was obvious on TV feeds but the crappiness of internet feeds masked it quite well, I thought it was real time until I saw it again on the news later.

Oberto + Manu = WIN!

 

[Justin Timberlake]

Oberto + Manu = WIN!

I secretly want Argentina to win gold again.

 

[mariofan361]

LTU isn't sure about your statement.

The fireworks did happen, you can see it here, but they faked the one that was shown, because it would be too difficult/dangerous to get the shots that they wanted

 

[linsivvi]

They aren't going anywhere without Scola.

 

[Justin Timberlake]

Manu assist to Oberto!

Oh god I love the Olympics.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

:lol @ the announcer calling Noicioni on flopping.

 

[jobber]

mannnnnuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

[Spurs_Fan]

[NetMapel]

Noooooooooooo... Hotspot Shield died on me It won't connect ! Damn you NBC Olympics

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Boomers coming back!

 

[jobber]

Did Argentina really need those 2.7 seconds back?

 

[NetMapel]

Yay Taiwanese badminton individual man just owned Malaysia.

 

[Zeke]
