I was blown away by not just the french but Euro players in general last night.
And reflecting on the top players in the NBA, there are a ton of stars and growing. It is crazy how hard and fast Europe is taking over the NBA. Has the popularity of basketball really taken off over there? Is it common for most youth to get into basketball in a way that wasn't the case a few decades ago? Are the random Euro sports like handball & cricket declining? Just curious if anyone has any insights. Olympics will be very interesting to see how the US does.

I really have no feel for how this draft class will shake out at all. The American side, to me, seems weak this year. Lots of Euro kids went last night in Round 1 and, I admit, I've not seen any of them play. I've seen some highlight videos of Sarr, but that's about it.

Well, I agree! And if the US does not wing gold it will be his fault as well as Bronny’s
