Came out the 3rd on fire, Putin on a show, lovin’ this BIG EAST b-ball in July!!!

Viva Gringolandia!

Cooley and Willard doing a nice job. Everyone shared the ball and it was a very balanced attack. Starting 5 = Groselle in the middle, Samuels and Diallo on the wings and Myles and Gillespie in the backcourt. We shot well and got after them a little better in the 2nd H. Good minutes from Duke, Heron, Cale, Alexander. Watson and Wideman shared time with Groselle. Is Malinowki on the team? Maybe injured? He didn't seem to play.

I don’t think Malinowski is on the team. Agreed really turned it up in the second half. Still plenty to clean up if they want to win it all but good first win. Shot the ball really well and are really strong on the wing and off guard. Groselle and wideman were okay but Watson is clearly the best big we have. He’ll have to play big minutes in tight games

Venezuela and Puerto Rico both look beatable early. Now looking pretty tough...

All the expensive seats are empty, rich people down there are assholes

Argetina's women's basketball team wore the wrong color jersey to their game yesterday and had to forfeit. Oops.

Nice interview with Coach Cooley about each of the players on the team. Starts about halfway thru the podcast.

At least we did better than the NBA guys did in FIBA. First loss in 58 games and won’t medal at all.
