Yeah for real WTF

NBA should make Utah sell the name back to NOLA. The Pelicans is the worst.

The Pelicans is a great name. Way better than some generic bird.

Generic bird kills tiger.

You weren't going to watch it anyway -- only continue to yell in confusion about the inclusion of 3v3 women's basketball.

I mean, the US game was on at a decent time last night for American audiences. Not sure how that is "spoiling".

[spike]

a 9:30 start time is reasonable? i stayed up as long as i could.

i was specifically talking about the bronze medal game anyway.

thread responsibility is real.

The bronze medal game was on around 7-8 am today. If you were asleep by halftime of last night's game you should have been up for the bronze medal game. My 3 month old made sure to be up for both...

it was on at 6am; my kid sleeps til 7-8. and i had to finish the gold game first.

anyway, my point is this ain't the olympics thread.

Some fan!

Must say it never occurred to me that we weren't to discuss results here.

Its almost always the case that the important games are purposely on at US prime time, always has been.

I mean, the NBA Finals were played at 9am my time but on workdays, so I knew to stay out of the NBA thread for the day (and off social media generally) until I got home at 5, 8 hours later, and could watch.

But I get it - wrong thread for my comments. Again, sorry.

I am confused but I am also honestly curious.

3v3 is new, yeah?

These are my questions:
- why did they do this in addition to normal 5v5?
- did the men play 3v3, if not why not?
- why didn’t baseball have a home run derby competition?
- why didn’t soccer have a penalty shot competition?
- why didn’t they leave the linemen at home and have a 7v7 football competition?
- why is Maria Taylor on the coverage team, I thought she was cancelled?
- why are there so many Simone Biles haters? Oops sorry that one’s off topic.

[Monkey_Driven]

There was 3 on 3 men's basketball. The US men didn't qualify.

[bada]

Don’t worry Higgs it’s utterly ridiculous to complain about spoilers for a live sporting event. Utterly ridiculous.

[spike]

Gonna start posting AFL results in here.

Quit being a wee bitch, Spike.

I go for the Eagles. Definitely one way to depress me for sure.

Yam Madar Mania in full force already.

GP, Shaq, and ‘Nique could have won it all.

Miller Time off the bench.
