Storrs Central: 2024 Paris Olympics: A UConn WBB Preview

They're picked by their delegation, not by their team. This changes nothing for me. If you don't stand for your flag, you have no right carrying it. If he even once sits during the US National Anthem during the Olympics, he should be flown home.

Oddly, I like James more than most. He's donated millions to kids struggle in school, and in life. He's very generous.

Coco was a great choice.

Wrong. They are nominated, and voted upon, by their fellow athletes.

'We're saying the same thing. A delegation = all the player from all the teams from a country. I had just never heard the entire delegation referred to as a team before.

As for LeBron @uconnfan68 :

The biggest story from Bronny James' debut is LeBron James and the national anthem​

Bronny James, the oldest son of NBA superstar LeBron James, made his debut with the USC Trojans men's basketball team Sunday night against Long Beach State. He sustained sudden cardiac arrest in July during a workout but returned to the court and had a solid stat line off the bench: four points, three rebounds, two assists, two steals, and a block in 17 minutes of action.

The Trojans ended up losing to Long Beach State 84-79 in overtime but one of the bigger stories from the game is the backlash from when LeBron and two other James children entered the Galen Center.

LeBron, Zhrui, and Bryce James walked to their seats during the national anthem

LeBron James was in Galen Center Sunday to watch his son Bronny's first game with the USC Trojans but his entrance is drawing criticism.

Aside from the flag bearer conversation. Let's say there is an impressive number of Huskies in Paris.
I can't wait until 3 PM to tune in to the Women's BBall game today.

TV schedule is so crowded and confusing!

If you have Peacock, use the "Gold Zone" they sometimes have 4 screens up and then may zoom in to where ever critical action is.

You were the one that mentioned 11:45 AM - I am just saying that here, in my home, on my TV, in CT, it is going to be live at 3PM. That's all.

Sorry, it should be 11:45 am Pacific Time. I am in LA.

Okay, is it cheesy/cheeky to say "Put this in the Louvre?" for this pic?

One more time DT shows her inability to play with class... that hasn't changed over the past two decades.

I hear you, but I'm not even sure when this picture was captured. Had the game on in the background while in meetings. For all we know, the sequence of events "could" provide an explanation. It gave me big sibling vs little sibling vibes.

Okay, demeaning, rather than classless. Disrespectful, at least. Clearly, I'm not a fan of DT for how she's often conducted herself over the years, so go for whatever adjective/adverb you prefer.

 

[GoUconn7961]

I can't see the picture, but if it's her holding the ball up over the Japanese players head that was in the 2020 Olympic Gold Medal game.
If you don't like DT that's your prerogative. But this is certainly a tricky board to call her classless.

Clearly, you’re in the wrong place to say that.
