Yeah, it's stacked, with all-stars playing for the USA. Did you see them demolish Canada, a team which has played together for a while. Team USA will destroy everyone in their path. Gonna be the Dream Team all over again. Size, speed, skill, Team USA has it all. The rest of the field are just a bunch of mice.

The more I see this duo of wemby and gobert the more I feel like the Spurs should have traded their picks for the 1st and draft Sarr, that duo would have definitely worked I feel.

2 things need to be considered when comparing FIBA ball to the NBA: - No defensive 3s - Smaller court This completely changes spacing, defensive and offensive schemes… Let’s see how team USA adapts
Surely france is a team to watch in the olympics but they are no match to team USA. The team that, for me, had a chance to beat team usa is either canada or germany.. because these teams composed of players that play the same style as that of usa players.
Probablyy some countries can be competitive against USA but thats all. Let's not exaggarate things, the pure depth of team USA is something no other country can compete.
I think people don't give enough consideration to language and culture cohesion. These guys play so well together because they are in their comfort zone. It's much different that playing in the nba.
Really interesting take. I’ve never considered this before, but it makes sense. I can see how it could be harder for say, a guy from France playing in the US and being out of their element so to speak, even if their talent level is really good it may not translate as well. Also I think there are some amazing basketball players throughout the world on this Olympic stage that just simply don’t “fit” what the NBA is looking for in a player but in their own way are just as talented.
If France had one more player in the same class as wemby or Rudy, i think they could win ! but usa has a much better bench so wemby and rudy will not play 100 percent of their time or capacity, even gods must rest!!!
Why is it that as soon as a fanbase needs someone to cheer for players get this overhyped. Rudy isn’t that good of a player, especially right now. He’s an offensive no show and his defense in the playoffs isn’t even that good
It’s not fair to put any expectations on anybody other than USA. They deserve all the pressure. Victor is going to see double coverage or worse most of the time, meanwhile you can’t double anybody on USA. Not to mention them somehow getting Embiid who will likely get Wemby in foul trouble.
Double, triple, what does it matter? Wemby can easily pass over any number of American players, the tallest on our team being five inches shorter, to the open man, or he can just shoot and there is nothing they can do. And then there is Gobert, and if AD is on Wemby then…I guess Embiid on Gobert but again Gobert has size on Embiid and Wemby can get the ball to Gobert if he wants too. The French team is kryptonite for Steve Kerr’s bag of tricks. Small ball doesn’t work against huge mobile bigs who are allowed to camp in the paint. And we don’t have the bigs big enough to handle Wemby and Gobert. Wemby with reach and speed can start in the paint and contest the corner three if the ball goes there, and he and Gobert can reach the guys like KD and Booker who like the long twos also. But like the man said in the video, having those guys patrolling the paint means the perimeter defenders can be right up in your face too, go ahead and drive past them and see what it gets you. This French team is super nasty, they are going to be destroying opponents.
Honestly, it doesn't evolve around Wemby. France gave its final team, they kept Fournier and De Colo. The only guy who could create offense outside Wemby, it's Strazel, a young 21 yo guard who came from the bench in EuroLeague. Unless this guy blow up during the Olympics, it's gonna be hard to really compete against Team USA.
Honestly, it is all about Wemby and Gobert and the lack of a three second lane rule for the Olympics. Turkey shot 4.2% in the paint. Not 42%, 4.2%. Germany is a top European team, and if Wemby and Gobert had played thirty five minutes Germany would have had under fifty points. The US team has a lot of talent, much of it well beyond their primes. But they will have to win shooting contested three and long twos, because they are not getting much in the way of dunks and layups, and that is an awfully hard way to win at basketball. France takes this one, and it will not be too close either.
I thought the same, but look: first 2 games with wemby (friendlies) both were won by around 50pts, then one game without wemby, they lost to the same team they destroyed before
@@jamesjones11301994 Long bomb threes will be the only uncontested shots, so good luck with those. After they "space" the French team, then what do you think happens? They...drive and Wemby recovers to meet them at the rim, or if they pull up for a long two..they jack up a long three, they drive and stop and try to pop at the three point line and are contested, they throw it to the corner and have a contested three there...
No. They were already beaten by Serbia. You are facing the most experienced NBA players in the world. No statistics involve. Just face USA and we will see. But no worries. Wemby is not France.
I think its embarising that embiid (and siakam) dont play for cameroon. Everybody always talking about empowering africa and stuff, but it starts with the actual people from those countries
@@Shlongclock he lived in USA since he was 15/16 years old, he's more American than French, where he never lived.. Cameroun is his origines, but not his mentality and way of life.

That is underestimating the european style of play which is not based on a unique player's ability for shot creation but is based on moving the ball to find an open shot.
Wemby is tall but even ANT can easily push him around and the Olympics is more physical than the soft NBA regular season. And Gobert was a liability in the playoffs that’s why they were eliminated.

Spurs still need a second center - 5 - a tall ones to keep being efficient when Victor is on the bench or out or to combine with him.
