Dwayne Wade is looking really good.

Is it typical for international games to feel like playground pick-up games? I guess I've watched too many slow half-court NBA games.

yeah. the refs are more lenient so you get more steals.

No. International games are all about fundamental basketball, 15 foot jump shots, drive and dish, pick and rolls, but USA is just too over talented for China right now.

In a game like this, where no plays are being run, you can see how it hurts a guy like Melo who isn't the best off the dribble..

I hereby dub Sun Yue... THE ECLIPSE.

He hasn't even suited up yet and we have a nickname for him. :D

The Eclipse is a good nickname for when he's on the bench.

Sun Yue + Gasol alley-oop = Solar Pauer. :lol

They think they're all that. Someone remind them they haven't won an international tournament in eight years.

So now that they're blowing them out you're complaining about them providing entertainment?

You guys are all sissies. If they were doing regular layups more people would complain about the entertainment lasting one half long

Solid basketball isn't enough entertainment?

If that's the case, I'd be a Euroleague fan instead of the NBA.
