Bad play on that last possession. Togashi being a ballhog.

They may not be able to hang around for 40mins against the best but 20-30mins is doable for them.

France is not as good as what people are expecting them to be, even gilas can be competitive against this team, if there's a team who don't know how to maximize size its France, Wemby camping out in the perimeter negates whatever advantage they over Japan, a full Gilas team has the size to compete against France

France has tried to take advantage of their size but, this Japan frontcourt is better than people think, Hachimura had to guard Jokic but he’s a solid defender, watanabe was in the nba for defense. Hawkinson on isn’t bad either, Wemby also plays with Gobert so he plays out more on the perimeter

France definitely isn’t that good, or at least as people have talked about them other than Wemby and Gobert, their other positions are lacking compared to the top teams
