    A Serb here. So proud of our boys. Most of my countrymen thought we can’t beat them but I had a feeling we might manage to have at least an equal footing for most of the match. Turns out we had the energy and focus for 38 minutes straight but we just couldn’t finish the Team US off. Terrible defeat, I feel heartbroken and the more I think about it and the chance of the century to beat the best post-1992 Team US, the more I feel devastated. Congratulations to the Team US, the moral of the story is that basketball is not only played in the US, that they shouldn’t underestimate others and belittle them so much. Most Americans have no idea how seriously and passionately we take basketball over here, and that the whole nation prayed and hoped for the Team Serbia to win. A terrible, terrible moment for us, despite the immense pride I got for these guys.

      Yea I agree but you also have to look at it from the other side when you’ve won so much and you’re that high of a pedigree you just don’t play the same as when you’re under pressure
      Look at the showcase between USA and South Sudan as an example
      Your guys seemed like they had a lot more on the line. Whereas I felt like US just had KD, Book, Steph and bron that were really trying 100% the whole game
      You guys also exploited Steph’s size out on the perimeter a lot in the first 3/4 but when your guys 3 ball wasn’t falling you guys didn’t seem to have much else
      Jokic was also the MVP but couldn’t hit a 3 or a long 2 to save his life for quite a bit of the last few games
      Also I don’t get how you could of been so confident it was going to be an equal footing game when you berely beat Australia when it was literally only Patty doing anything giddy scored but had 7 turn overs and the rest of Aus were to scared to put up shots unless they were wide open and jock Landale and Daniels shrunk awfully in the last game

      @@haku4841 while we did rely a lot on the 3P, I really don’t think we were in the lead due to it. We played defense incredibly well and in quite a versatile fashion. The 0/9 for 3 in the 4/4 was the consequence of losing focus, energy, stamina and a bit of panic at the end. We played with only 8 guys in rotation, of which Avramovic won’t even play the EuroLeague next season. And we almost beat the team with 4 NBA MVPs.
      Australia was a matter of pressure on the team Serbia. Simply we knew we mustn’t lose against them. Personally even at -24 I didn’t really fear much (obviously I can’t prove this to you).
      We have been daydreaming about beating the Team US ever since early 1990s and the breakup of Yugoslavia. That dream lead us and kept us alive for 38minutes. It simply wasn’t enough. Not to mention the US had to import Embiid, they don’t have one single white guy (simply Africans have superior genetics, I don’t mean it in a racist fashion or at least it’s positive discrimination). A nation of 320 million people had to import folks and only won 4pts against a nation of 7 million relying on only one genetic substrate. A poor, depopulating nation that is slowly dying out. If that’s not a fairytale that almost manifested, I don’t know what is.

At the half, Serbia was above 50% 3pt and during first Q at some point it was almost 90%, like 7 out of 8 or something. Pretty much the very high 3pt % in the first Q was the main reason why Serbia was leading the whole game until the end.

If you guys play like that against Germany, you guys got Bronze, so keep your head up. You guys got a bright future.

    Chef, Bron, and Embid carried the load, Book and KD were the X factors. Nice comeback performance.

    Sixers fan but love Curry always have. The guy is the most quiet superstar ever. U never hear him cry through the media or on comment on social media ever. U know most of these dudes always commenting on social media.

    Lebron guarding jokic down the stretch was one of the most entertaining parts of the game!!! Two greats going at it. Physical, ball denial defense, something we don’t see much of anymore in the NBA

      For me, Lebron guarding Joker was what turned the game around! Just a blast to watch. Lebron being a beast, the Curry shooting, the clutch bucket by KD, Embiid's versatility... plus Joker showing he is the best player in the world right now (and having Boggy unconscious by his side). Amazing.
