According to another poster at another website:

 

So Canada have to finish top-three in a group with Spain, Japan and Hungary. Meanwhile all Puerto

Rico need to do is beat New Zealand. Canada may regret not finding a way to lose that game today...

 

Canada needed  a near A Team to beat an under-strength PR Team by a mere 9 points. I can tell you

right now Canada might not qualify for the 2024 Olympic Women's Basketball Tournament. And they 

most certainly will not medal at the 2024 Olympics. Canada's roster does not have ONE WNBA All-

Star, much less a world class player. Canada has a good jockey {Victor LaPena} riding an old sway-

back horse destined for the GLUE factory.

Hungary is most likely going 0-3 at the OQT, don’t see any way in which they advance over any of Canada, Spain, or Japan. 
 

Canada placed 4th at last years FIBA Women’s World Cup, and although they lost by 30 to Australia (in the bronze medal match), Lauren Jackson scored 30  points in her final international appearance. Plus, they had a bad game. 
 

To count them off as a medal contender at this stage is ridiculous. Puerto Rico is a solid team.  There’s a number of teams that could potentially advance to the knockout stages but could just as easily bomb out during the group stage. All about who shows up on the day. 

We may not have a WNBA all-star, but we have some great players on our team.  Kia Nurse, Natalie Achonwa, Nirra Fields, Bridget Carlton, Kayla Alexander, Laeticia Amihere, Shay Colley etc. Not to mention young talent Aaliyah Edwards, and supporting players in Cassandre Prosper, and Syla Swords (she balled out during this tournament).

Mr. Josh, do you remember what happened to your Canadian GLUE factory horse

team the last time they tried to run with Team USA?

 

 

https://www.fiba.basketball/womensbasketballworldcup/2022/game/3009/Canada-USA

 

That's what it looks like for a basketball team that was sent to the GLUE Factory.

    • Congrats Diggins, well deserved! 👏   Too bad she fell on the last lap in the last race (as well as Karlsson also did x2).   For the future I would really like them to remove the bonus sprint points suring the race that almost makes more importance to the overall standings than the positions over the finish line. And get back to the same point system as the other FIS events. 30 gets points instead on 50, and 100-80-60... instead of this system. in this case Diggins deserves it and Sweden who of different reasons have missed pets of the season On purpose or not, does not deserve it. But it as it is now it may take 20 wins to catch up for one missed race (if the opponent is 2nd in each). Dahlqvist won the sprint cup without any individual wins (3rd overall) is one example of that.    There must be room to miss a race of any reason. If not, it Will not make people race more events, instead it might make skoters who already missed one weekend feel they are already too far behind so they light as well take less priority on the rest of the World cup season. Also skiiers who in Norway for example would be good enough for a top3 in the overall might not even be selected for many races due to the internal competition. Same for a skiier like Ebba Andersson who most likely would not qualify if she would be selected to go a sprint race. But she would still get a few points probably for rk 31-50, but because she would not make it in to the Swedish sprint team she Will lose a lot even compared to those who fail the sprint qualifications. Frida Karlsson another example, she would also probably have qualified most of the times but is most often not good enough to make the team. With more award to winning and making podiums and also less athletes scoring that would make it better I think. The scoring system in biathlon got some critics when they decided you have to count all races, but they at least increased the value of top positions meaning you could faster catch up a bad race/missed race, by a few podiums.
    • Great to see O’Connor on the podium again! Thats 4 major medals in the past 12 months (World Indoors x 2, Euro Indoors and World Championships).   Her strongest event is the javelin so she is going to continue to be a huge threat in the heptathlon this summer and she is still improving all the other events. Exciting times for her  
    • Congrats to Diggins winning the WC in her final season 
    • Call me mad, but it feels very strange to have made it all the way through a major championships without hearing how the results were going to lead to a slashing of funding for  sport.  
    • Only Fabbri from Italy has disappointed and that's a bit concerning... In 3 of the last 4 major events (OG and 2x Indoor World Champ), he's performed significantly worse than he did on the entire season – he took bronze at the 2025 World Championships, but his result was also nothing special. His performance today is completely incomprehensible  (
