    Game is tied despite Slovenia shooting 60% from 3

    Will have to see what happens if and when that cools down

  2. degenerateprince

    Is it just me or does the Slovenian coach looks like Jordan Belfort

  3. Do y’all not watch NBA games? This Quarter Final is entertaining so far. Great 3pt shooting from both teams

  4. BigFaceCoffeeShop

    If you don’t like this game you don’t like basketball.

    How is Luka carrying his team on a tie ball game vs NBA caliber players. Oh wait he carried the Mavs to WCF by himself.

  6. NefariousNeezy

    Will they do an All-FIBA team for this tournament? That’s like first team All Humanity

  7. iggymcfly

    Why is FIBA so much more fun than the NBA? I mean, I know the pace, but even aside from that, it’s a beautiful fucking game.

    Inshallah 4th Qtr wont be a whistle fest

    I have never seen refs “let the boys play” this much. Man’s going to be black and bLuka after this

  10. Ben--Affleck

    Great game. At this rate, I think Canada will take it. Luka might get a little tired and I can’t see Slovenia shooting 3s that efficiently again. They might too though, but doubts.

  11. As a Canadian who’s favorite player is Luka, this game is hard to watch.. happy it’s so close though

  12. floatersforalgernon

    What would be the equivalent of Luka carrying this roster to title?

  13. iamwearingashirt

    The score is pretty appropriate. 50/50. Just like the odds for the winner at this point.

  14. ikatatlo

    Im just loving how fast the game is than in the NBA. It makes it much more thrilling

  15. fuckitiroastedyou

    Desmond Howard is one of those guys that actually might be as nice as he seems on TV.

    Met him as a kid at an ND game once and he let me wear his Super Bowl ring.

  16. ScottMrRager

    This will be difficult for Canada. Slovenia is on fire from the 3p line

  17. People keep talking about how stacked of a team Canada is but don’t know how disappointing RJ has been and inconsistent Brooks is. The team is all Shai.

  18. Crown_of_Negativity

    can we get a clip of the luka post-up spin on Brooks where he finished with the reverse layup? Preferably not on streamable since those are getting deleted so quickly during the world cup?

  19. 7elevenses

    If Luka just ran back on defense consistently, we’d be up by 6 by now.

  20. Nopementator

    Yep, having a constant presence in the paint will force players to find different ways to score and play more a team-basketball. The great playes will find ways to score anyway (as Luka and Shai are showing) while others will struggle a lot which is imo a pretty good compromise to have a good game.

  21. SiakamsWager

    Can someone more familiar with Slovenian basketball tell me about the caliber of Luka’s supporting cast? I only know Tobey and Dragic. People say the team is just Luka and bums but they are cooking so far!

  22. Next-Firefighter-753

    Watching Luka complain to the refs instead of running back on defense has to be so annoying as a fan of the team

  23. mynewaltaccount1

    Jesus, not sure if I’ve seen a team brick it more in warmups than Canada right now

  24. Inevitable_Big_1966

    Is Jeff real or augmented reality?

  25. armandocalvinisius

    powell will recruit SGA to mavs inshaallah

  26. Josheshua

    I’m convinced Luka talks to the refs so much so he doesn’t have to run back on defense
