Team USA played poorly. Japan were out already and did not even try to play until later in the game. The US team shot poorly, I suppose they were also relaxing and not going all out (otherwise, I was not too impressed). If team USA played like we know they can play, the score would have gotten to over 120. Good game tho, but the Greece - NZ game was intense..

The same US that struggled to beat Turkey 93:92 in OT. Serbia is likely to beat them

Half time:
Nigeria 37-35 CIV.

D’Tigers need to move the ball better when in offense, especially around the paint.

If they lose then they don't deserve to play in Tokyo

I don't like this Uzoh guy. He is always trying to do what is almost impossible. Play it simple..

Nnamdi with the Euro step there.. 53 - 43 we lead..

Boys playing with real Naija spirit. Hustling for the ball better.. 62 - 46 we lead
Re: Nigeria Basketball Thread - D’Tigress At The 2024 Olympics by KNIGHTBlaed(m): 10:09am On Sep 06, 2019
Better defense, winning both defensive and offensive rebounds, making easy baskets and spacing the floor. This is more like it from the Tigers.

The defense greatly improved in that quarter, forcing the Ivorians to make more difficult 2-point attempts.

Josh Okogie has been shooting poorly, but he's been massive with his assists and hustle, same with Michael Eric (coach got him cold, he sat too long on the bench)... Nicely done boys
