The Celtics let America down.
I didn’t realize the game was on so correct me on this if wrong — but based on the box score it looks like Pop that the best way to guard Gobert was to put Harrison Barnes on him? 7 Offensive Rebounds is inexcusable to allow when you don’t play Myles Turner more than 12min

I only watched for a few minutes late in the 4th, lol. IDK how the game went down.

I just know they have like 3 or 4 Celtics on the roster.

Gotta love the "full of scrubs" excuse when they were still far more talented than any other team.

To be fair, Rudy Gobert is probably better than anyone on Team USA, and he’s the main reason we lost. Not really much of any excuses versus Serbia, other than just not caring anymore

I was gonna give a scorching hot take at the start of the tourney how the US would be a lottery team. That was probably too much. They still got a lot of talent.
