Looks like the USA got a great group draw.

Paraguay, Australia and the winner of a three-team playoff.

The Australians aren’t a pushover, but all our games are winnable.

I hear others saying England is in the group of death, but I don’t see any really crazy groups.

Not so fun with the box score!

FGs

Tre White — a shocking 1-3

Melvin Council — a not so shocking 4-13

Elmarko Jackson — a pleasing 4-9

Box score invisibility

Bryson Tiller — did he even play?

Jayden Dawson — I thought in the summer he was an obvious starter. Maybe now losing playing time. He seems brain dead.

FTs

KU — 15-21

UConn — 6-8

That’s a winning formula. What the heck happened??

Woo, doggy, that there is what you call an epic collapse.
Lemme ponder the box score. Some ugliness in there for sure.
God almighty if Council weren’t such a bricklayer, we’d have a chance most games.

a quick cruise of some of the archives...i'm sure it wouldn't hurt with a few threads, but nothing standing out at the moment.

Well, may as well start up a Chiefs thread.

Do they have to win out to have a shot at the playoffs?

Bummer if they miss, but i guess on the positive side maybe they can turn it into a Top 10 draft pick if they tank a bit! not that i wanna see that happen...Seems like they don't have the "it" factor this year.

On the positive side, the sked from here on looks winnable.

Phew. I think i'm back!
thx for the help, @approxinfinity
