You are playing a team of borderline superhumans and out here acting like Arvydas Sabonis?

The basketball gods are rarely so timely or so cruel in their reaction to being a jackass....

But they should have made Yann pay the cost not poor Fredric.

I feel like they had to have words after the game. Right? Is that justifiable? Pulling him aside to ask "What the ****?" when he gets that done to you?

Why so ****ing stupid with it though?

The defender was still clearly in line to intercept in that passing lane, you’re playing a team full of super athletes.

And why are you showboating on a simple outlet pass that wouldn’t result in anything?

And you’re getting beat at that point by 15?

Pass. A behind the back ...

Outlet pass.

Dumb Euro Trash. Was he feeling himself? Did he think that was going to make a highlight tape? ESPN? They were in the initial stages of getting curb stomped.

Was this one of the few times America actually won the gold?

before that game they should have lost to Lithuania anyway if not for us choking at the free throw line...:lol So that team of "superhumans" was already a very humanlike beatable opponent

Stupid pass, but the guy isn't to blame for the dunk. Weis puts his arms straight up and Carter doesn't dunk that, probably gets called for an offensive foul.

I love it when people who don't know how to make regular passes make behind the back passes and end up throwing it out of bounds. I remember getting in a teammates face, like btch when I step out on the court I'm trying to win. Meanwhile this idiot making those passes with us down 12-3.

Just with Pros:

1992, 1996, 2000, 2008, 2012, 2016 is this a minimal few times?

They have 15 total gold medals.

Yea thats a weird comment. We are 15 to the rest of the worlds 4 all time and one of the 4 the US boycotted. The USSR won twice, Yugoslavia won one, and Argentina in 04. Those years aside we won every year since 1936....and one of the USSR wins was with no Americans in the Olympics.

His life totally fell apart. He tried to kill himself...not that im saying that dunk is why. It must suck knowing that when your kids and grandkids google you thats all they will see.

Bit of a NY times article....

Imagine wanting to kill yourself because you just happened to get dunked on by the best dunker in the world. There's worse things in life. Now we know why he got dunked on the way he did... with that soft pu55y mentality and all.

I don’t get why this dunk is considered the best ever. It’s great athleticism, but it doesn’t pump me up. Like, off the top of my head, that Ginobili dunk on Bosh in the ‘14 Finals..now that pumped me up. He saw his opening, was determined, and barely avoided the block.
