With a month of games ahead of them, I wouldn't be surprised if they let off the gas starting the second half. This is more of a show than it is a game.

The All Stars are embarrassing Team USA
The All Stars are embarrassing Team USA
Had to dig up some quotes when it was announced that the WNBA All Stars would be playing the National Team.
Damn, I hope CC gets to play the last few minutes. I'd like to see her break that record.
Team USA has some serious issues. Like they look....old.
Looking like an all-star game the last few minutes. Pretty sloppy and letting USA get back into it.... Somewhat
Of course they won’t be playing any team even half as talented as the all star team.
Team USA might win gold, but they can’t claim to be the world’s best team 🤣🤣
This is 1 of 2 tune up games for Team USA before the Olympics.
How do you explain this embarrassing exhibition?

Happens when you put DT on there for her 15th Olympics.
but hey, gotta get Diana to her 6th Olympics
I think the WNBA stars think they are a better team than Team USA and they've played with a chip on their shoulder. Particularly Ogunbowale. And I don't blame then the way this team was constructed.
Arike isn't even touching rim. She's white hot.
Wait.... I thought the national team had to be battle tested?
Getting their a$$es beat by team WNBA that has never played together. LOL

Not good enough for team USA tho.... AGAIN.
Jeez.... Arike is 8-12 from three in the second half.
32 points for Arike
all in the 2nd half

32 points in a half. Wow.
Team USA looks like a team that was picked on name recognition instead of merit. Griner is way too old and slow to play in an up tempo game like this.
Meanwhile, Clark launches one final three and airballs it.
Blame the coach.
Fortunately for them I'm not sure they will play any teams that can do what the WNBA is doing to them but they certainly have provided a blueprint for anyone that wants to try to do it on how to beat them.
Looks like the selection committee is clueless.... Like we all thought.
And now looking desperate, challenging down 7 with 16 seconds left

There’s a few solid international teams out there. They play like this they could lose
I think Miller told them to slow down to prevent the complete demoralization of the National Team. The WNBA could have won by 30 tonight the way Arike was shooting.
So put team WNBA on the plane for Paris?
Taurasi's. "voice" did a lot of good huh?

They always talk like the Olympic team needs Diana because no one else in the league is capable of being a vocal leader…🙄
Suck it, Team USA. Looks like you made some poor political choices for players.
Thought she might cry in the huddle at the end.
If they win gold maybe they should hand over their medals to the more deserving team…(I say this somewhat sarcastically but Arike sure as hell deserves it after being snubbed twice).
