Gobert is owning our bigs in a big way. We've given up on the bigs being at all effective. Jalen Brown just came in for Turner and Harrison Barnes is now the tallest player on the floor for Team USA.
4-point play for France and they take a 10 point lead 1 min into the 3rd quarter.

6-6 NBA shooting guard Joe Harris is currently matched up against 7-1 All-NBA C Rudy Gobert. This is not because of a switch, this is our base defense. France missed a shot but Gobert easily got the rebound and put it back for a bucket.
USA currently has 2 offensive rebounds in the entire game. France has 7.

Feels like Mitchell is taking over, getting to the rim at will. He currently leads the team in points, rebounds, assists, and steals. So... ummm... not bad.
Marcus Smart currently guarding Gobert and seems to be frustrating the French giant with his effort. USA has cut it to 2 with 3 minutes in the 3rd.

Steal and a slam by Mitchell... game tied at 60.
At the other end, Gobert gets 3 taps and one finally goes in, France back up by 2.

Great comeback in that 3rd Q. After poor D on the first bunch of possessions we shut them down and held them to 18 that quarter, but only 10 over the last 6 minutes off the half. Mitchell went off! We need to hold them to under 20 this q.
We missed 2 lay-ups that quarter!!!
