Beaten by Germany on Friday, the Blues are worrying their supporters today before the quarter-finals. Even the competition could see this result, including LeBron James, not impressed by the level of this French team. That’s said.

In a few days, the French team will play its quarter-finals against Canada, one of the favorites to win a medal in these Olympic Games.

A difficult confrontation for the Blues to the point where they are not the favorites, not after this heavy defeat against Germany on Friday.

Vincent Collet’s men are in difficulty and it shows.

Having problems on the court is one thing, but a bad atmosphere in the locker room is another.

In addition to obvious problems in attack, the Blues must deal with certain tensions in the group, like the recent criticisms of Evan Fournier.

Vincent Collet responded to him this Saturday and he decided to publicly put the star back in his place .

LeBron James not impressed by France

Another good reason to give Canada the favorite for these quarters, even if the feat is possible for Collet’s men.

One thing is certain: LeBron James is not impressed by this team. The King clearly watched the game on Friday and he delivered some observations this Saturday after Team USA’s victory against Puerto Rico.

Ben Golliver : “LeBron James says Team USA needs to be ready for Canada, Germany and others in the playoffs. James on France: ‘I wasn’t impressed with their last game. I didn’t think they were physically ready for Germany. Other than that, they played good basketball.'”

The Lakers star ends on a positive note but it is clear that for him, and therefore Team USA, the French team does not represent the same level of threat as Canada and Germany. Friday’s result seems to prove him right, but let’s hope for a collective reaction from the Blues, all at home.

LeBron James watched the French team’s game and he noted quite a few problems for Vincent Collet’s men. Good basketball despite everything, but more than ever, the Blues are not considered favorites by the competition.
