QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 15, 2015 -> 01:53 PM) Lets not pretend that Verajao is a spring chicken either. He has blown out his knees and achilles, and finished pretty much the last 5 seasons on the shelf. Everyone compares him to Noah, and look at the shell of a player that we saw out of Noah this season. Plus, Mozgov > Varejao. So him coming back seems like a moot point.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 14, 2015 -> 09:48 PM) Steph Curry just chucked up a 35 foot three with nobody guarding him and 9 seconds on the shot clock and drained it to put GS up by 11 in 90 seconds left. There's your signature game. That's that confidence. Dellevadova really threw him off for a game and a half. He's got the swagger back now.

This game would definitely be over right now if Iguodala knew how to make some damn free throws.

Steph Curry doing Steph Curry things this game.

Now he got away with a kicked ball. He should write a book on how to manipulate NBA officials.

Dellavedova is making me hate all Australians. He arm locked green and pulled him down. Then pretended to be in a lot of pain after Green landed on him. f*** that guy.

Neymar just made an incredible pass to assist the winning goal for Brazil in stoppage time.

Paraguay came back from 2-0 and drew Argentina. Argentina had a lot of good chances to go up 3-1 in the second half but couldn't finish. Martinez also subbed on Tevez and Higuain after Paraguay scored their first goal, like they wanted to go offense-heavy when they probably should have gone defensive.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 13, 2015 -> 09:24 AM) I was thinking why cant Hudson do more games. I really enjoy listening to his passion and his lines he comes up with seem authentic, not something he has written down just waiting to spew out. I really enjoyed last summer listening to him on SiriusXM during the World Cup. He was usually on some morning show. Some of the stuff he says is hilarious, but I feel like he goes way too overboard with it. Even Hawk doesn't go as beserk as Hudson does sometimes.

Need this one tonight. Andriese has been pretty awful as a starter in his 3 starts. Hopefully good Danks shows up, cause bad Danks is awful.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 09:01 PM) Also LeBron cut his head open flopping onto a camera. With the slide tackle in game 3 and now this, LeBron should start looking into a career as a soccer player during the off-season.

Dellavedova looked awful. Looks like he's come down to earth a bit.

Warriors remembered how to shoot. About damn time.

Chile wins 2-0, Ecuador fought them step for step for a while, but Chile's talent really showed for the last half hour. Matias Fernandez decided to be an idiot and got a second yellow in stoppage time. I guess it's a good thing for Chile that their group is pretty awful and won't really need Fernandez in the group stage.

Does anyone else find Ray Hudson (analyst on beIN) extremely annoying after listening to his terrible metaphors for 5 minutes?

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 12:28 PM) Mexico's manager has basically said he's saving some of his players (GDS, JDS, Chicharito, Vela, Guardado, Ochoa) for the Gold Cup Mexico is bringing a very good side to the Gold Cup. Not a given at all. They're not bringing Marcelo, Dante, Oscar, Lucas Moura, Ramires, Paulinho, Bernard, Hulk or Leandro Damiao. They're midfield has a lot of inexperience outside of Willian I saw Marcelo on the 35 man roster and assumed he was going to start. I guess they're going with Filipe Luis? They have Coutihno instead of Oscar, who I feel is actually just as good, if not better. Not having Hulk hurts, but I feel that as long as Brazil has Neymar, they're going places.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 11:00 AM) The big problem with Copa always has been and always will be that the invited teams (Mexico) can't force clubs to release players. Don't know Brazil's excuse though. I don't think Brazil's really missing anyone all that important. Their starting 11 is more or less their A team: Jefferson Danilo Miranda Luiz Marcelo Willian Gustavo Elias Robinho Firmino Neymar I'm wondering why they're playing Miranda instead of Silva. With how that game against Germany went, you'd think they would put a more lax defender like Silva back there to back up David Luiz in case he goes too attack happy again. Mexico's not even bringing Dos Santos, Hernandez, Guardado, or Ochoa to Copa America.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 11, 2015 -> 09:55 AM) Morris has been a nice surprise but we've seen US forwards come out looking good in their first few caps and then barely amount to anything. Copa starts tonight. Woohoo Looks like it's time for me to order beIN sports.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 03:45 PM) Jordan Morris is going to be such a beast American Wayne Rooney

Oh hey, we're finally hitting!

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 05:35 PM) Either every great shooter conveniently forgot how to shoot vs. cavs or their defense is amazing right now. I'm guessing the latter. Their injuries have removed their worst defensive players and they have the one offensive player in the planet who can make an offense run with scrubs all around. It's incredible. But remember after 3 games how vulnerable dubs looked against grizz. Well, the Cavs don't have a Tony Allen they can just leave alone on defense like they did against Memphis.

Klinsmann revealed his preliminary roster for the Gold Cup. No Julian Green or Bobby Wood.

Watch us sweep the weekend series.

A lot of the young players on the US are looking good ahead of the Gold Cup. I think if the US win the Gold Cup, they get automatic qualification for the 2018 WC.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 03:31 PM) USA 2:1 Germany 88' Bobby motherf***in' Wood. Two wins against Neatherlands and Germany is huge.
