  1. Obviously the conversation will be about Luka, but that clutch Dragon steal in the final minute was massive. It looked like France was going to win before that.

  2. I never understood in the past whenever fans would just follow one player around like Kobe or LBJ and just become fans of their teams, but I get it now. Itā€™s fun to root for that one guy

  3. lmao france guy just threw up a stupid 3 with like 18 seconds left on their shot clock and missed everything and then the PGs just get the ball poked away 2 times

  4. Seeing Dragic constantly slip and everyone else missing 3s while Luka was fighting against so many double teams plus Gobert was just too stressful

    And despite everything those last minute steals sealed the game

  5. Can someone explain the group stage points to meā€¦ if Iā€™m looking at this correctly, do you get 1 point for loading and 2 for winning? Feels weird getting points for losing!

    Also, are ties at the end of the group decided by h2h results? Ie Slovenia beat Germany, so theyā€™ll finish 1st regardless of Germany result tonight?

  6. And you’re telling me I get to watch Luka lead my national team for another 15 or so years? Hell yeah brother

  7. What a great game. A bit of an anticlimactic finish, but some great play on both ends. Classic Luka game. Great effort and smarts by Dragic. Amazing performance by Gobert. France’s guards needed to be better in the clutch.
