Nobody will talk about it (rightfully) but Steph Curry snatching 8 boards — 3 more than Jokic — is pretty wild.
LeBron and Curry outrebounding the entire Serbia starting lineup in a game Serbia won the glass 34-33 is an underrated reason they won that game. – 6:24 PM

More on this storyline
With 3:40 left in the second quarter, the Atlanta Hawks guard hit a three over Anthony Edwards to give Serbia a 47-32 lead. Bogdanovic then mimicked Carmelo Anthony’s “three to the dome” celebration and began trash talking the former US Olympian, who happened to be sitting courtside. Even LeBron James took exception to Bogdanovic taunting his 2003 NBA Draft classmate. From that point on, Team USA outscored Serbia 63-44 to pull off a 95-91 come-from-behind win. Bogdanovic’s trash talk became a huge talking point on social media during and after the game. -via Larry Brown Sports / August 9, 2024
As a result, a hyped-up James uploaded a picture of him and Anthony in his Instagram stories. LeBron revealed in his story that Carmelo told him to get the win no matter how difficult it takes to achieve it. In response, James made it clear to Anthony that he heard him and listened to him. You said “Gotta get it done the hard way,”” James said. “I heard you loud and clear my brother. -via Clutch Points / August 9, 2024
