First medal for an NZ male in a field event with Kerr's gold.
We've got the faster with Snell, Lovelock, Halberg, and Walker. Now the higher.
Stronger: can we use Val?

Watching the break dancing semis. Yeah, Robertson wouldn’t medal.

Curry is just a machine at 3 pointers. Soul destroying for the French.

France weren’t bad but their shooting percentage was too low.

It’s crazy that it’s even a contest
USA should be smashing everyone in their sleep

The NBA is a different game. Serbs almost rolled them with amazing shooting, brilliant team offense and defense. This team was as stacked as any for some time. Curry, KD, LeBron and all played great when it mattered

@canefan What was interesting in the last two games was how much game time the USA gave to their starting stars.
International standards are getting better. One year they will go rolled.
They've already been rolled before haven't they? Jason Tatum barely played along others. This was no globetrotters tour, they had to work hard to win gold

The Norwegian guy who won the 5000 after missing out on the medals in his specialist 1500 ran the 5000 for the first time at an Olympic games! Amazing
Well. He is the reigning 5000m world champ. If not last 2 world champs. Not that amazing.
Where they followed exact same path as this one. If understood commentators correctly. He fluffed his 1500s but won 5000s in slowish tactical races.
