    Tough group but I knew they were good enough to advance

    Last five Olympic appearances for Canada in basketball:

    – 2024
    – 2000
    – 1988
    – 1984
    – 1976

    That France vs. Germany game is pretty damn important in terms of seeding. Currently, they are both 2-0 with a +16 and +30 point differential respectively. Canada currently has a +17. Ideally, France beats Germany but not by a lot and/or Canada has a massive win against Spain.

    I’m going to assume that the US will get one of the two top seeds. I would hope that Canada doesn’t end up in the same half of the bracket as them.

    Took me a while to find but the only way to avoid the US (assuming they get top seed) in semi is finishing 2nd or 5th.

    You get regrouped by a draw based on overall finish, plus the rule no team from the original group will play against each other in quarters.

    The last five, well that must date back to 2008 then, right?

    Does it become one game elimination in the quarterfinals?
