The US playing Serbia 3 times in 2 months is wild to me. The bracket allocations shouldnt have been done like that. First and second in a group shouldn't have been in the same side of the knockout bracket.
@@lakritz1987 that's the problem. The winners and the runner ups from each group should've been in completely different sides of the draw. Germany and France shouldn't be playing each other again unless they both make the finals
They are trying to make sure it's USA vs France in the finals because if Serbia or US played with France they might lose so they are trying to make sure France reaches the finals it's that simple
I had a bet before the tournament. I was so confident that France would not reach the semis, that if they did, I'd be topless in the streets. I'm a man of my word so... Anyway, I believe that France needed to hit rock bottom in order for change to happen. After a disastrous loss to Germany, public disagreements and signs that the group was imploding, that's when the coach finally made big decisions and for the first time in 3 years, had a clear gameplan to follow, and it worked. Regardless of what happens next, the Collet era will not end in disgrace. It's France's 5th Olympic Semi-finals, and Collet will have coached 2 of them when it's all said and done. Another reason why he is forever gonna be the greatest coach we ever had, in spite of everything that happened in the last few years. Thank you Cordinier for the clutch basket and Lessort for being an absolute bully inside, with Canada being forced to foul, unable to cope with the physiciality
I knew after the game that people would claim that the ref cheated Canada… just watch the game you’ll see the clear foul. Btw all the turnovers and a horrible average fg% has nothing to do with ref… Canada started really bad and then Shai started to get some steam but the other couldn’t follow. I’ll admit I did see 1 or 2 fouls that could have been called for Canada but this happen literally every game with every team. And I’m pretty sure France could have gotten a few more. If you just look at the number then you won’t understand that no one could stop Lessort inside.
Agreed. There were a few bad calls here and there... on both sides. Fournier offensive foul for example on his floater is the least understandable. On one side, we can say Powel was set before contact and it should have been an offensive foul and no basket. On the other hand, he sets his feet when Fournier had already jumped and so we can also say that he inserted himself on Fournier's landing area and that's a defensive foul plus an additional free throw. Normally, the latter interpretation is used by the refs but they decided to do a middle ground interpretation, which was odd. There were other stuff like Fournier's foul on Murray at the very end which was not counted and gave France the ball back, or the last Wemby basket which was a violation because the ball didn't touch the basket before he got it back in his hands. But earlier there was a ball kicked out of bounce by Brooks which was given to Canada, and also the "steal" by Dort on Cordinier ending with a 2 points fast break to put Canada back at 5 point with 2 min to play (and a change of momentum) was an enormous no-call because Dort snatched not only the ball but Cordiner's entire arm. All in all, the bad calls offset each other. There were some physical intensity in this game and the ref left the game play, like they do in the Euroleague. They officiated pretty much the same way on both sides. 42 free throws for France yes, but most of it is by attacking the rim and provoking the foul inside. Canada didn't really attack the rim before the second half, at which point they started to get free throws too. Fouls were called, all the guard who had to defend on SGA were almost out (Ntilikina fouled out, Albici and Cordiner both at 4 fouls, Coulibali, despite a very limited play, was at 2 fouls if no mistake). They were just clever enough to foul before the shot. But, you know, people see what they want to see. I guess the guys who complaint are used to watch the NBA and not the Euroleague (not even mentioning the ones who only watched highlights and the score board). They talk about Wemby and Gobert and don't know Yabusele and Lessort. France shouldn't have won this game if they would have continued playing the way they were playing in group phase. They came in the game as the clear underdog. But this game was really different by the offensive strategy, the personnel on the court, the rotations and time allocated to each player, and also the energy of the overall squad who finally woke up to compete.
France had that much free throws because they played bully ball the whole first half, every possession was a post up and canada didn't have the physical strength so they fouled a lot, if you're a boxscore watcher it looks like it was bad officiating but if you watched the game it didn't feel too bad except for one or two questionable calls but I don't think those decided the match
I don't get the thing about referees... they made 3 bad calls against France for out of bounds plays where the replay was very clear, they called Lessort for travel, and so on. Many North Americans just think Euroleague players are trash, whereas Lessort and Yabusele are clearly way, way above the Canadians interior players who had to foul them everytime down the floor! Cordinier is the only real surprise here, as well as Wemby in his own way because he really disappointed offensively. Canada was not called for more fouls than France, they were just dominated physically and are not used to it.
Canada was outplayed by smart coaching. There were a couple of refs mistakes, but not about these free throws. Canada didn't have anyone who could stop Lessort/Yabusele. Powell is versatile but weak. They didn't move the ball well and Batum provided pretty good defence on Shai.
Serbia always struggle to get to quarter finals but than they wake up and put through hell anyone who they face and I dont think that USA will have easy win as everyone thinks
7 points for Wemby and Canada still loses? They shut him down but were inconsistent on offense. Team Canada is officially eliminated from the 2024 Paris Olympics. That sucks for them because they were the country who had the 2nd most NBA players on it. Obviously the U.S. have the most. I think it blew Team Canada's minds when the French exploded in the 1st quarter, building a huge early lead. It's not the officiating's fault. It was just an embarrassing loss for one of the top teams in this tournament.
If Andrew Wiggins and Zach Edey played they probably would've done better. Canada just has 0 size it looked like they were playing 5 guards on the court there.

Why nobody also mentions that France lost their challenge when they shouldn't have? They were bad calls for both Canada and France, concerning the 42 Free throws if you are not an angry Canadian fans, an idiot and if you really watched the game, you should have seen that it was because Yabusele and Lessort completely destroyed Canada in the print and Canada had no choice to fool them out, if you really want to blame someone blame Jamal and Dillon honestly, especially Jamal, but honestly everyone except Shai should be ashamed of themselves, it was a deserved win for France.
