It's a win for every person but the Celtics and also the hopes of any other 2016-17 MVP hopefuls. Even Kevin Durant take advantage of this in a manner due to the fact that the OKC triumph moistens the OKC loss at his hands. Westbrook is reallying going to be should view TV following year.
THE COMPETITION: I placed the other 11 groups in the men's Olympic basketball tournament in order of the chance they can defeat Team U.S.A. Looter alert: no one can. The most frequent comments I'm getting: Brazil will certainly be better than I forecast, and Serbia will certainly medal. We will see ...
REDEMPTION: Yaron Weitzman bears in mind the Redeem Team and explores what they implied to the modern-day USA Basketball program.

DENOUEMENT: Superb story from The Undefeated's Michael A. Fletcher on why Head of state Obama plays a lot more golf compared to basketball these days. I resemble Two Decade below POTUS and I feel this deeply.
THAT 'S A STRETCH: The wellness advantages of stretching have been massively oversold. I am the reverse of limber, and I stretch with some regularity, and all it assists is to stop back spasms.

(For the document, I am not a cord cutter since I can not sleep without late-night HGTV.).
