:CAN demolishes :JPN 18-6 in the play-in to advance to the quarterfinals! :cheer::d

 

We started with 5 fouls with 5:30 to go, but managed to clean it up by not picking up any more throughout the rest of the game. That was huge for us, considering Japan was 12/13 on FT’s heading into this game, definitely a strength for them. Grant-Allen and Brown were on fire, I think Grant-Allen even got double digits?

 

Crozon struggled with all of her points coming on layups and easy baskets but that’s been the story for the entire tournament. Hope she can gain some confidence from the points she scored and help us to win against Spain. 

 

Keys for the game: Crozon, Cleaning up on the turnovers, Not expending all their energy into the early parts of the game because it’s been a trend that they’ve been getting gassed out (besides this one) which lets the other team going on a run.

:CAN defeats :ESP 11-10 in a low scoring defensive masterclass by both teams, avoiding a 3rd consecutive QF finish at the FIBA 3x3 World Cup:hyper::cheer:

 

Cassandra Brown with the game-winning bucket with 5.0 seconds left to go in the game, and Saicha Grant-Allen was a beast as always :clap:

:MGL women beat :USA 18-15 in one of the biggest 3X3 upsets till date. Also a full stop to everyone who criticized the Mongolian team when they qualified for Tokyo Olympics.

Mongolia in the final of the women's tournament at the World Cup! Can this be the first final in any Olympic team sport?

Italy in the coming years may field a very old, but certainly prestigious men's national team. The names involved would be the wizard Bargnani (the real organizer of the thing), Belinelli, Gallinari and Mancinelli. For now is just a crazy idea, but..

Would be interesting to see that team. Transition to 3x3 isnt that straightforward but is doable with NBA players.

Upset in Copenhagen! The new Italian team, led by Amedeo Della Valle, beats Switzerland, the world vice-champions. Tonight, another tough challenge against Serbia.

Belinelli didn't retire? Is it just about classic basketball?

    • I won't write about injuries (Fede) and non-sporting matters (Colturi), but the fact is that Italy has its worst start to the season in alpine skiing in over 10 years... Just one victory, and podiums- if any, they're mostly 3 places. We're also not leading in any of the season standings, no in the women's or men's categories. This isn't be it should be in an Olympic year in your country, where you're having your worst season in many years.
    • Plaisier blew 3 match darts and Ratajski comes back to win!    
    • Yes, she was unlucky, but it could just as easily have happened during some training, like with Gut, etc. Brignone has been essentially injury-free throughout her long career, which is very rare in this sport. It's unfortunate that this happened after her best season ever and just 1 year before the Olympic Games in home, when she just missing of win the Olympic gold medal in her great career. With the gold in Cortina, she would have become a legend of Italian skiing, on par with Tomba. Now she's still the best Italian woman in history, but the miss of Olympic gold will likely haunt her for the rest of her life. 
    • It sad to see this season, as I remember, that Fede last year was winning everywhere, when she competed and finished and now we haven't even managed a single podium in the giant slalom, and it'll probably stay that way until the end of the season. Without Fede and Bassino, unfortunately, we're out of good cards in this event. For me Goggia should probably skip the giant slalom at all, becouse she has no chance of a podium and she risks further injuries. If even Goggia finish 8th or 10th? What difference does it make? If she couldn't get a podium finish today with so many DNFs at the top skiers, she probably never do. Della Mea is OK this year, but let's be honest, she's not World Cup podium material. Overall, it's a sad picture, and we have a 0% chance of anything in Cortina unless a miracle happens in Brignone return.   We have two chances for Goggia in DH and SG + maybe a dark horse in Pirovano/Curtoni in SG. That's all. In technical events, we have a 0% chance for medal and that's sad. Our federation also lost Colturi in this situation... In any normal country, the head of such a federation should be dismissed for disciplinary reasons and this case should be investigated by the minister, or even the prime minister, but not in Italy...
    • Mikaela Shiffrin  off the podium today (Edit: Oops...I thought this was slalom, not Giant Slalom.).  Nina Astner  entered the 2nd run in 30th place, but had the best second run, jumping up 18 places to 12th.
    • Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel with a 5th place PB in Semmering GS! 
    • Today RDC will defeat Senegal  and Tunisia 0-0 Nigeria
