Kobe gambling on Fernandez got Dwight dunked on in this game. Game was hype even though it started at like 3 a m
 
That 08 gold medal game thread was crazy. We had Kobe and Lebron haters joining together chanting USA. Crappy FIBA refs trying to foul Bron and Kobe out in the first quarter. Tay and Wade stemming the tide in the first half when Kobe and Lebron were on the bench. Navarro hitting crazy shot after crazy shot. Bosh and Bizzaro getting torched on pick and rolls. Spain's bench crying for travel calls after every US fast break dunk. Team USA getting hit with illegal screens.

I remember that game like it was yesterday.

[quote name="lakersman3000"][QUOTE name="Jay02"]I always wondered what the LeBron haters do during Olympic time.[/QUOTE]tbh ive never cared or followed olympic teams. [/quote]My guy, change that. Start now, with the upcoming invites. Watch how that list of invites gets whittled down, then we'll go straight into the Rio games next summer.

Bruh, Olympic games are... I'm gonna start crying here... they're beautiful. They play is so much different than what we see. And I'm not slamming the NBA, because as you know, I love it. But the Olympics, they all play different, man. I'm actually a USA Kobe fan. Fancy that. :lol: Him and Melo both are completely different in international play, and it's beautiful. :smokin

Did you know the ball is live if it's touching the rim in international play? Say you throw up a floater that hits the rim and starts circling around. I can smack it off. :smokin

Things like that, and the fact that the 3 refs are most likely from 3 different countries and don't even speak English (so all that whining and carrying on from the likes of Wade and Kobe and Bron is a waste of time, and almost doesn't exist), and the unselfish extra passes from everyone...

You gotta get into it, man. :smokin

Seeing the Gasol brothers do their thing. :smokin

The speed of Puerto Rico and Brazil and the Dominican. :smokin

Watching Argentina flop all over the place and get no calls. :lol: :smokin (j/k, Argentinean fans. You guys always bring a good squad. I'm just out here telling jokes, man. Not srs. :smile: )

Like I said, start paying attention to that invitation list getting thinned out. :smile:

I'm hooking you into next summer, bruh. :smokin

Yeah man, it's legitimately the best team basketball you'll ever see. Can't say enough about Melo and LeBron sticking with the program since age 18 along with what Coach K has done leading the ship. They put pride back on the line and amazing ball was the result. It just keeps getting better with guys like Harden, Curry, and AD entering their primes at an MVP level. And you wouldn't believe the amount of times that Melo played like the best player on the court.
