Rui out here acting like the only thing he can do is take fadeaways 2s
i thought 32 was lamarcus aldridge out the corner of my eye
They gotta pull rui. He’s killing possessions with bad shot selection and subpar effort on defense
Rui is having a nightmare
Moe 😀 Boooom
Rui is awful on both ends
It’s Joever
You just know Rui loves Olympic ball because he gets to take all the shots in the world that’ll get him benched in the NBA
Man I want to see more of Kawamura because he’s like my height but good at basketball. His vision is elite.
Rui is the best player on Japan but he simply doesn’t have the ability to take over games. He shouldn’t be given the green light to chuck like this.
Kawamura and Togashi probably woulda been elite at any sport but basketball lol
Well, Gomi no jikan it is.
Rui is just ruining Japan’s game. They played so much tighter in the fiba worlds without rui. Btw is this the warriors guy doing play-by-play?
I saw that backdoor cut coming a mile away. Tui wasn’t even watching Bonga
Just so people understand, Rui is literally the only player on the team who can create their own shot at this level.
Japan can only be successful if he gets going or draws doubles.
Japan’s jerseys are pretty awesome.
Rui is getting an NBA whistle, it’s getting ridiculous.
Really not one to complain about refs, but is anyone else feeling like they’re just being pretty inconsistent in their calls? Like I never know what is going to be a foul and what isn’t. Especially off-ball
Rui my guy you have more shots than points 😭
Rui 4/19 😭😭😭😭😭
Also is it just YouTubetv that’s coming back from the ad breaks late or is that everybody? Or just me
Germany is Lucky, that the Japan did not use the player of Generations of Miracles.
Generation of Miracles ain’t walking through that door
Rui needs to be benched. He is not a 40min player. I’m guessing they’re keeping him on for size
Maybe a tad too much heroball from Rui rn
19 pts from 19 FG attempts (and 4 makes) is wild
Japan played an exciting teamball offense last fiba worlds. Rui is just hijacking their possessions with needless iso ball
Theis with 100% FG
Rui looking like Melo with the Rockets out there
watanabe really disappeared after the 1st
Who’s excited to see wemby on the world stage 👀
Theis with 16 points on 100 / 100 / 100 splits
Theis is amazing at FIBA
Rui doesn’t even know his teammates’ shot tendencies. A bunch of his drive and passes ended up with him exactly on the spot his teammates drove into jesus fucking christ
the horrible kind of fiba refs
Wagner Bros looking great and we signed another German player in Tristan Da Silva, who’ll be on the national team in the future I presume.
The refs are so inconsistent with their calls
4/19 Rui shooting. That’s baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.
USA v Germany will be exciting
commentator really stretching the term “solid game” for rui
Theis is still 100% from the field right?
Hachimura probably should’ve played in those two games v. South Korea before the Olympics. He has not been gelling at all
I don’t know if I like that rim sound. Kinda satisfying.
German Announcer: The US went full force here with LeBron James and Steph Kerry.
Hachimuras box score would look a lot uglier if he would not have gotten a very friendly whistle, at least by FIBA standards.
As expected, but defense needs to get better
NBA should find a way to implement this FIBA point system rule. It will solve a lot of their problems
This is about as bad as Germany can play and they still won by 20. Things are looking good.
Closer than I thought it was going to be! GG world champs
