Suns players and Team USA Basketball in the Olympics

[Mainstreet]

Kevin Durant has hit his first two shots coming off the bench against Serbia.

He is looking good and is presently 3-3 from the field, now, 4-4. The momentum changed when he entered the game.

Team USA previously trailed 10-2.

 

[Mainstreet]

Durant can't miss. He has 14 points.

Meanwhile Booker looks like trash

Durant on fire

Meanwhile Booker looks like trash

I think Booker is playing very unselfish, which is needed in this game of U.S. stars.

 

[Mainstreet]

Serbia is playing very well. Team U.S. would probably be trailing if not for Durant.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

Durant is playing out of his mind

 

[Mainstreet]

Team USA leads at the half 58-49.

Durant leads the scoring for USA going 8-8 from the field with 21 points.

The game is televised on NBC.

Devin Booker is 2-3 from three for 6 points with 1 assist and 1 rebound.

He is starting.

US getting hosed on the refereeing

 

[Dback Jon]

But one thing that NBA refs could take notes on is that you can actually call a charge on LeBron James

 

[Mainstreet]

Lebron is a physical specimen and is taking the game dead serious.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kevin Durant enters the game in the 2nd half.

 

[Mainstreet]

One thing the Olympics tell me, the Suns need more size and physical players.

 

[Mainstreet]

Edwards with a lot of moves to end the 3rd quarter with a score.

Team USA leads 84-65.

 

[Mainstreet]

Devin Booker has sacrificed a lot of offense to play defense and look for teammates.

 

[Mainstreet]

Booker hits a three. He has 9 points.

 

[Mainstreet]

And another three from Booker. He has 12 points.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Team USA 110

Serbia 84

 

[ProdigalSun]

Durant can't miss. He has 14 points.

Maybe he and booker are feeling good vibes with the tyus jones signing

I find it humorous that Tatum isn't even in the rotation.

Dude is going to get dragged to his second title in as many months.

Tatum led the Celtics in points/rebounds/assists in the playoffs he just shot the 3 horribly. Playing the same position as KD in the Olympics and Lebron during his career achievement tour is tough luck.

I found it Ironic Booker and KD on the floor to quiet down the Serbian team from a fourth quarter comeback. Book comes in and hits a couple threes and KD hits a few baskets and rally is over!

Devin focused his energy on defense and getting others involved, so for him to score 12 points was icing on the cake.
