It’s summer. It’s slow. But at least there’s the Olympics to get a preview of what one of our new Jazzmen is able to do. Boris Diaw has been a Swiss army knife built for Olympic play. Today was no exception as Boris Diaw almost got a Triple Double by totaling 11 points, 9 assists, and 9 rebounds in today’s CLOSE win over Serbia which France won 76-75.
Rudy Gobert also played great. While he was limited on offense he had a +16 +/- and had 3 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 blocks.
Tony Parker put France ahead with 31 seconds left and France’s defense held onto the win.
