On this episode Mike & Jason discuss Team USA's win over Brazil in the Olympic Quarterfinals. Next, they look at the other 3 quarterfinal games and the international players who've performed well through 4 games including Wemby, Jokic, Shai, Giddey, Giannis, RJ Barrett, Schroder, and Franz as well as those who have struggled like Gobert, Murray, and Dillon Brooks. They also hit on Team Canada failing to medal despite having 11 NBA players on their roster. Finally they run through a few quick topics including Charles Barkley's announcement that he will honor his contract with TNT through 2032, a possible Lauri Markkanen extension, and the Cleveland Browns potentially building a domed stadium in the suburbs.
