I used to play U18 for Germany 20 years ago and the problem against USA is still the same. European teams don't focus enough on playing better defense.
Nations are often slow to adapt to changes in the NBA. The NBA changed to an all perimeter style of offensive systems that require defensive players to cover the perimeter, and most international teams still do not know how to cover it. In the Olympics, if any team does not know how to cover that versus Booker, Tatum, Haliburton and especially Stephen Curry... any hope of victory can and likely will disappear in an instance.
I expected the USA to win but also for France to put up a better fight after getting so many top picks in the last 2 NBA drafts and hearing how well they've taught their young players, I thought this game would have championship written all over it
Amazing !!! These USA U17 players handed an even more devastating basketball lesson to France. France did the same to Australia !! This illustrates just how good the USA basketball level is above everyone else.
This draft class of players is so deep the boozer twins tyran stokes aj and cooper Flagg have deeeeeeeep bags already I feel like every one of them can be a productive piece on an nba roster rn not stars but valid rotational pieces
I am actually surprised that they not only won but also that dominant. France has overall really caught up on basketball it’s like the US is one still then there is France but getting closer every year.
Spoken like someone that doesn't watch basketball. This win is not surprising at all, I don't get why people think the US is not improving in basketball and that the world has caught them or something. Wemby is one man, doesn't matter how great he becomes. France has historically always had weak guards, they will never beat the US if they can't find a superstar guard to pair with Wemby.
@@razatiger22 your first sentence is craaaazy together with your last one. Do you know that France has the best PG out of the 2025 nba draft projected to go number 3 his name is Nolan Traore. Seems like you don’t watch Ball I guess
@@razatiger22 Tony Parker was weak? Also, Wemby is definitely one man, but France just had 3 men in the Top 10 of this year’s draft. France is 1/6 of the size of the US, and will never be able to compete at junior level, but at senior level they are getting closer. This particular U17 US team is spectacular though.
They never were if we’re being honest. I mean yeah several Europeans and other foreigners are top players now but those are just individuals, but on the whole the United States best of the best is still so far ahead of the other countries that it’s not even funny and everyone will witness it come later this month at the Olympics when we steamroll to a Gold.
The rest of the World is catching up with the USA. Western Europe and especially Eastern Block Countries have stepped up greatly. However, that doesn’t mean the USA 🇺🇸 isn’t still incredibly dominant on the Court
Not in the U-17's. Until these young European players play in Euro-Leagues (or a comparable international league), NCAA or the G-League, they aren't facing likely good opponents. The amount of "quality" players these countries have at that age is a handful at best. These USA players go to camps everywhere and face much better competition; they got dozens and dozens of players that are "quality" for their age. Additionally they often get more time with actual NBA coaches, NBA players and college coaches for coaching, and they probably sometimes practice with college players.
@@JohnWick-qr4yc Agreed. France has the best shot against the USA, but I legit don't know how anyone on that team can stop prevent Stephen Curry. And even if they could, how do you also contain LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Anthony Edwards and Joel Embiid? That's 4 NBA MVP's right there and perhaps the greatest athlete in the NBA as USA's likely starting 5. Then you got a bench with only All-NBA players. You got great defenders off the bench in Tatum, Holliday, AD, Bam, and Kawhi. Then you consider the Eastern Conference/NBA Finals MVP Brown did not even make the team. That shows how deep that depth is.
Après, les gamins ne mangent clairement pas les mêmes pilules. C'est des monstres physiques... Les 3/4 seront injury prone dans une poignées d'années coté US, c'est affligeant.
Mais aussi la presse, j'étais choqué de voir les gars se faire bouffer en prise à deux et sur la presse tout terrain. Ils se sont fait croquer et le coach a tardé à réajuster tout ça et ils ont perdu confiance et se sont fait dévorer physiquement. En plus les USA sont nettement plus athlétique ce qui leur a permis de maintenir cette tactique tout le match et ça a marché.
@pikatura_23 not trying to argue, but you don't have to have your feet set to take a charge. The rule states legal guarding position. That can be on the move. I would have called a charge, but I'm guessing since he had to take a last second step left the refs deemed him not in legal guarding position, so block.
I didn't see th USA shoot any 3s. They took it to the basket. Taking it to the basket is American basketball. Shooting 3s is European basketball. America lose when they play like Europeans. Win when they play like Americans.
@@jonvicmamon2529that 2014 Fiba team is underrated lol when you actually watched the games and look at the roster that was easily the most stacked Fiba team of all time and would have easily won the Olympics too.
@jonvicmamon2529 With all due respect, when the American take the ball to the basket, they can't be beat. Nobody can stop them. Too slow. When they jack up 3s and don't go to the basket they lose. Plus they pick team based on politics. D Fox, Zion and Ja are three of the only AMERICAN players that player that rugged take it the basket all the time style.
Il y a eu de bonnes séquences mais les gars ont été trop timides au début, on prend les 10 points et difficile de revenir après ça. Gros travail à faire pour les meneurs quand le grand sort pour trapper : split pass à faire sur le poseur d'écran ou driver fort autour du grand mais ne JAMAIS arrêter son dribble. Pas d'ajustement du coaching staff sur ce point là, alors qu'on se fait prendre 2 fois dès le 1er quart-temps. C'est dommage
This is literally Team USA vs INSEP Pole Paris minus Nolan Traore who's subbed in for Cholet's Soren Bracq. Where's Aaron Towo-Nnasi? I know hes 5'9 but he might be one of the best attacking scorers in the world in his age group.
No it’s just that because the nba and overall North American basketball are very permissive with the rules. They forgot how to really apply the rules ( just watch how many travels, fouls or double dribble there are during nba games )
Alors il y a un monde d’écart, car aux États-Unis, des lycéens qui pratiquent le sport sont libres à 14h pour s’entraîner tout l’après-midi. Alors que nous en France, il n’y a pas de dérogation pour les sportifs, tu fais tes cours jusqu’à 17 heures tu rentres chez toi pour prendre tes affaires et ensuite tu reviens à l’entraînement à 19h le soir…

@@chreal9863they should also do something about the announcer. It kinda sounds like hes doing a reaction youtube video with his microphone unplugged
FIBA competitions show how crucial having a good center and height advantage inside the paint.
Positionless basketball is nonsense that you tell to stupid people.
Dybantsa and Cam Boozer’s game translated well to Fiba competition. They are going to be a force in the nba
This team is different they dunking everything 😭
😂💯💯

They're*
Naw fr
@@FillyouupSplashEbonics he said it right
Carlos Boozer’s son got a bright future
Yup, they have eaten the same pils as their father. Bright injury prone future yes XD
stop hating
That tight defense and running the paint was really nice to watch.
This USA team is very impressive !
I used to play U18 for Germany 20 years ago and the problem against USA is still the same. European teams don't focus enough on playing better defense.
How? French are totally physically inferior here...(which was very surprising to me btw)

Play defense like this and you can win going away.

Omg this was the best one out of the last 10.000 haha 🎉🎉 dunking after dunking
I like wat I’m seeing da future squad
How was 3:57 not a charge. If this was the nba someone would have been ejected for arguing with the ref 😂
I was wondering the same thing… the only thing I can think of is, he leaned into the size he jumped to
because he was still moving.his feet wasnt set.
Charge all day

Yes, good pils brand. XD
This is what happens when the usa sends their actual best players
They don’t even have all the best players only a couple
Majority of the French u17 roster are 14 year olds. This was expected based off the 2026 US class being star-studded
@@SuperYoungjbfrance doesn’t stand a chance against america lol in basketball there is USA and 100 steps empty and then comes the 2nd place

No need to lie they were mostly 17yr olds with one being 15. According to FIBA rosters

Boozer and number 7 on USA, i don’t know to spell his name, were balling for real, and number 2 on France is nice
Mas malakas pa under 17 ng USA kaysa sa Gilas Team Senior
The best players were late to the game for France... what a shame for the coach
The Boozer Bros were D1 starters in the 11th grade. I
On the team USA. I have noticed that their team strategy particularly is Exclusive to either a dunk or a Layup. Got damn, the caoch has no chill!!
at the time iposted the comment there was no 3 point attemp, but there was immediately after
Number 14 from USA plays for cam wilder
They don’t learn Defense overseas

Still would have been a blowout 😂
Most dunk in one game
Funny how these hlghlights make it seem like the USA have no mid range or long range shoot
It feels like the dunk contest 😅😅😅
The French team was just scared of the us team. Intimidation
They took the ball & made the guards give it up by not allowing them to drive.
Les jeunes américains sont mieux entraînés et sont plus habitués a jouer des matchs de haut niveaux que les jeunes français.
