Eliminations in the European Championship are in full swing, but many people probably don’t know that this year’s basketball Copa America has reached the semi-finals.
Early this morning, the US team lost to Argentina 73-82, stopped in the semi-finals and missed the final. The finals of
will be held between Argentina and Brazil, and the United States will compete for third place with Canada.
Of course, if the US team loses, that's also expected. After all, their core lineup is like this ↓↓↓
Can recognize all these three people, are they all considered as ashes fans?
This year's performance in the Copa America is hard to describe.
The first game of the group stage, lost to Mexico 67-73
The other two group stages, winning 30 points in one game and winning 52 points in the other game, but one opponent is Panama and the other opponent is Venezuela.
8 to the knockout round of 4, and the US team almost lost to Puerto Rico (85-84).
The American team of this men's basketball team is: Frank Mason , Norris Cole , Jody Meeks , Jeremy Pago , McCaw, Craig Sward , yes Lai Pemberton, William Davis, Anthony Lamb, Zillan Chelsom, Gary Clark, Zimmerman
Starting lineup↓↓↓
Do you think there are many names that sound familiar, but don’t believe they can join the US team, and there are some that you don’t even know at all? !
Not to mention players, even the coach is just Jazz assistant coach Alex Jensen.
Others usually play perfunctory games, and they send teams two or three to participate in the competition. Team US must be 30 teams outside, right?
Is Norris Cole the biggest brand here? Well, that's right, it's the Cole you are thinking about now, the Cole from Heat back then, he has never played in NBA since 2017.
As the "boss" of the US team, Kerr played 18 minutes today, made 7 of 11 shots, and scored 18 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 breaks and 0 blocks.
vs. Argentina, Dyke made 9 of 13 shots, scoring the highest 30 points and 7 rebounds.
La Provitola made 6 shots in 217, scoring 18 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
Campazzo also has 10 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists to earn
Is this game considered a gift from Argentina to enter the Hall of Fame for their legendary celebrities?
Today Ginobili also thanked his Argentine teammates in his Hall of Fame speech. He said: "My career has another wonderful time, the years of fighting side by side with the national teammates. I will always remember those games and the achievements we created together."
It is still worth celebrating to defeat the United States at home.
Of course, the American team that lost the game was probably not very sad.
Now this kind of intercontinental competition is no longer linked to the World Cup quota. The 32 teams participating in the World Cup must be decided through the World Cup qualifiers, so the Copa America, which has no value, is even more unattractive to the US team.
So this time there is basically no name-named star willing to play such a game. The American Basketball Association is probably unwilling to waste this favor for such a game. Good steel should be used on the edge.
Entering the 21st century, the US team seemed to have won three Copa America championships.
Of course, even if the Copa America is linked to the World Cup quota, the lineup sent by the US team will not be much better than this. The lineup they participated in the World Cup qualifiers is not as good as this one. After all, the US team should still be able to easily qualify for the 2023 World Cup.
