While he was still with the Lakers, he also did great but that didn't end well for the team. Maybe he can show better with his stay on the Raptors.
And this finals of the FIBA world cup sure was all unexpected. When everyone else has thought that it's gonna be other popular teams that will face each other, these two came out. Those who were able to bet on Germany and did a YOLO bet, well, you deserve it as well bettors as it's truly a gamble. And for those that bet for USA and Canada for the battle of the bronze, I am sure that many have lost.
The result between USA and Canada was really unexpected and yes, I'm part of those who lose the bet because USA didn't perform that well.
Canada did a great job on ever field and having a huge lead against USA is something that we didn't expect. Though rumors are saying that it was a fixed game so that Canada will get their first every podium finish in the FIBA, well no one knows.
