  1. Sorry NY Fans, but RJ Barret and Jalen Brunson so far not good in this game.

  2. jaypeekyle23

    Dillon Brooks is a good basketball player

  3. StalkingDwarf

    21 points at half in FIBA basketball is fucking wild lmfao. Holy shit Brooks lol

  4. I don’t think I could handle RJ playing for the team I support, respect Knicks fans.

  5. FactCheckingThings

    I said it before, FVV and Brooks is either gonna be an alltime chuckfest or the greatest 3 and D combo ever lol.

  6. DastruggleEzreal

    Damn MVP chants for Dillion wtf, kinda deserved tbh tho

  7. plantedank

    are the name in the unis written in comic sans? fucking appalling

  8. efficientshelter69

    MVP chants for Villain Brooks 😈

  9. Cul_what

    Someone better drop 40 or Brooks’ never gonna respect USA

  10. MySilverBurrito

    1st half takeaways:

    * Brooks is on fucking fire.

    * Canada ball movement is nice, USA relying on PnR/drive kick out too much.

    * USA can help less. They’re doing well to make Canada pick up the ball early, but the kick outs to open 3s are killing them.

    Does Reaves know he’s allowed to make the simply play instead of try make house of highlights?

  12. Canada_for_gold

    21 points at half for Brooks who had that on their bingo card 😭

  13. Wish this was the final, I’m in my hotel in Manila crying with my Germany vs Serbia tickets instead lol

  14. speakGuapanese1

    JJJ out and USA leading in rebounds. Couldn’t write a better script 😭😭

  15. alexaustinv

    So glad I got up to watch this game. Love what Brooks is doing for Team Canada. FIBA basketball is sick. Lets go CANADA BABYYYY

  16. sbstooge

    Manilla was booing the hell out of Brooks all tourney and now giving in MVP chants, that’s actually crazy

  17. PapiShot

    MVP chants? Brooks with the organic face turn.

  18. RedRocket13

    Imagine saying you weren’t gonna sign this man under any circumstances

  19. YouStillTakeDamage

    Brooks torching the USA for the Bronze medal is absolutely one of the funniest outcomes possible

  20. Dillon Brooks 5/5 from 3 has got to be his career best. Wtf is this shooting

  21. Apprehensive-Sir-411

    barrett worse than expected, SGA as expected, and brooks WAY WAY better than expected

  22. Digi_awesome

    What happens if Brooks drops 40, does everyone have to respect him or does he just gain more self respect?

  23. Brooks carried in the Olympic qualifying game. If we win this, Brooks deserves keys to the country

  24. TheCherubRocker

    Die a villain or live long enough to become a hero. The Dillon Brooks story.

  25. Magnetronaap

    What a dull match. Both teams know one play: run towards the basket. Sometimes they do it while making a short turn around a teammate on the three point line. Sometimes they pass it to the outside from close to the basket. And both defenses just let it happen over and over again.

  26. No_Dot_9319

    Coach K teams relied on guards and wings that can beat anyone on the dribble and can shoot (full jump) a jumpshot off the dribble over people. That’s how they ‘almost walked through the park’ (blowouts) from ’08 to ’16. This Kerr team is relying on being too open from passes à la GSW.lol

  27. TheRealRemyClayden

    Did Dillon Brooks have a baby or something? And why is this effect limited to Canadian PGs

  28. LavenderAutist

    Hali with more rebounds at halftime this game than JJJ all of last game

  29. Next-Firefighter-753

    Who had Dillon Brooks scoring 24 in the half?

  30. HowIsPajamaMan

    SGA and Murray are going to be scary in the Olympics

  31. DBrods11

    Brooks 40 piece is gonna spark a 2024 redeem team documentary.

  32. sbstooge

    So crazy that Australian sports betting ads now have those disclaimers like “imagine what you could be buying instead”
