went back and found this quote:

"There are two reasons that Serbia were recently crowned the FIBA Women's EuroBasket 2021 champions. The first was having the special talent and leadership of TISSOT MVP Sonja Vasic who posted some monumental displays of poise and playmaking abilities. The second and most important in a Tokyo context is that they turned up their pressure defense to another level. They squeezed teams hard. They rinsed opposing guards with incessant pressure. It was relentless."

making me nervous....

So far they've shown all the US games on one of the tv channels live. But not tonight when it's the semis. Instead we have volleyball, field hockey, Canoe/kayak, and water polo. Weird.

The tweets and article from USA Basketball say it's on NBC. For what that's worth.

Thanks. Maybe it will be there, but right now on my tv info it says those other things. However they sometimes lie or change "their" minds so who knows, it may be there when the time comes. It's just annoying not to know. My internet connection is iffy so watching it online can be even more annoying as it buffers continuously.

The timing does directly conflict with women's volleyball; volleyball starts earlier (1 vs. 1:40) and would project to be a tighter game on paper, so it's not necessarily surprising if they decide to go with volleyball imo. The scheduling has been an annoyance since the quarterfinals Neutral Myself, I plan to have both streams up with volleyball muted... lol

My TV tells me that NBC will be airing women's basketball at 12:30-2:30.

Maybe it's a multi stream/ view. Sometimes the channels will play a combination of both events via double screen.

The Bourbon Backcourt started quite smooth and smoky last game.

Summary of the first five minutes: Serbia can't pass or shoot, US can't shoot.

Dawn trying out some slightly different rotations today. Isn't this the first time Charles and Fowles didn't come in together? Atkins saw some first quarter minutes as well. All 5 starters ended the quarter on the bench.

This lineup is struggling to score but the defense is pretty good.

Alright, Dawn, this lineup was cute, but it’s time to pull the plug.

Crazy to think that Angela Dugalic on the Serbian team, a 19 year old born in Illinois, is currently being guarded by Silvia Fowles. Shocked

The shooting for both teams is tragic.

Charles/Fowles clearly hasn't worked all tournament yet we keep going to it. I wish Syl would get a run with A'ja once in a while. Or Syl and Stewie at the 4/5.

After the start of the first, the US shooting hasn't been TOO terrible. They're still at 53% at the half.

Serbia though... like some of it is good defensive effort from the US but MOSTLY it's just they can't hit wide open shots.

Dugalic would be tearing Tina Charles up right now if only her shots weren't hitting almost no rim. She's rebounding well - offensively too - but can't do anything else.
