- '92? The last time you lose a game? Who can say that? Women's basketball with another win. Breanna Stewart, 21 first half points, and she was on eco mode. She wasn't even on sport mode. She was in cruise control, you feel what I'm saying? Best player in the world. Stop playing with her. These women are so dominant, the team is so deep, that usually the 12 players on their team are the 12 best players in the gym.
The last time they lost the game was '92. They're in a 53-game winning streak. You know what the best song in '92 was? Boyz II Men, "End of the Road." Although we go! That joint slap, though, I can't even lie. It was a hit. But they old now! Like, this is the most dominant sports franchise in United States history and maybe the history of the world, at this point. I don't know, but that's what it seems like. '92? The last time you lose a game? Who can say that? Nobody, man!
Men's basketball got a win a couple of nights ago, as well. Kevin Durant, best player in the world, doing best player in the world things. You know what I'm saying? Leading them back in the third quarter from a 10 point deficit, getting the W against Spain. I want to see the match-up against Slovenia. I want to see Luka versus United States. Luka is throwing Slovenia, the entire country, on his back right now. By the numbers, best player in the Olympics right now. I want to see that match-up. Because if Luka get that W, if he pulls it out, bro. I'm there for that. It will be great to see the United States get a gold, but hey, I'm here for the fun. And Luka, taking on the best players in the League and dominating them in the way he's dominated the Olympics? Hey, I'm there for that, too.
