The strength of their team was diving, ping pong, and weightlifting. Also shooting.China having such a strong Olympics, especially in swimming, is not surprising to me after Beijing in 2008. That was such a great Olympics and I think it really inspired a lot of kids and parents of young kids to aim for athletics. That's when Phelps and Bolt captivated the world.
Choosing a Olympic basketball team is Politics. Diane Taurasi was a wasted spot just because she thought she deserved to be there.She's a 32% 3pt% compared to Stephs 42%. So tired of people crowing her the female Curry. She's great but she's not so good that she's a must have on the USA team as a rookie.
Hobby-horse racing will be in the Olympics soon. . .I don't disagree with this.
I think we are muddying the waters adding animal-involved sports. Make an animal-sport Olympics for that. Keep man v man Olympics as such.
I'm not sure but I wouldn't be shocked if the historic Olympics had jousting and chariot races but those sports are so dangerous for the riders and animals.
Plum is a career 39% 3 point shooter as a professional. Ionescu is 37%.I never claimed she was a female Curry but she's a better shooter than many on that team.
