Olympic basketball countries facing each other in other olympic sports

[Hepcat]

Canada playing great, leading 2-0 (25-23, 25-17) against team USA in volleyball...

edit: Canada surprisingly won 3-0 against USA (25-23, 25-17, 25-23).

Yay!

don't know how many of you watch tennis.
but Juan Martin Del Potro just beat Novak Đoković 7-6, 7-6 in the first round match..
unbelievable match and play from both.
both players in tears after the match.
Delpo deserved this after everything he has been through in his career.
world's best player finished the match without a single break point in the match.

Seems like the swimmers are breaking WRs by even bigger margins than they usually do. That is some Usain Bolt territory for Peaty.

.Being up 4 goals on waterpolo isnt the same us being 30 in basketball,not even close.And noone relaxed,Serbia is just a better team.

Part from basketball I love handball too so I follow that too. Think that France will win mens olympic tournament probably aginst Germany in the finale who are on the rise again in mens handball. Brazil will win the womens tournament.

Brazil could have won medal in mens tournament too if only Borges (Montpellier), Ferreira Moraes (Kiel/Vardar), Malburg Patrianova (Celje) and Nacimento would have playd.

Handball is mostly an european sport actually among top 2-3 sport in several nations in europe even big a few big nations. But nice to see Brazilian progress also Angola, Qatar who won silver medal at WC and destroyd Croatia.

US beat Australia in field hockey after beating Argentina on Saturday. 1984 is the only time we've won a medal so starting off with two straight wins against traditional powers is impressive.

[Picek]

we got our first medal and it is a gold one.
we have a second trap shooting gold medalist.
Cernogoraz in London and Glasnović now.

Brazil-Argentina women's volleyball up now...looks like a packed arena for once.

[bballcrazy]

China sucks at basketball, but they are good at table tennis and badminton.
Weirdly, their men sucks at team sports but their women's basketball and volleyball are pretty good.
