Summary

Charlotte and Amin relive Team USA's historic win against France to earn gold at the Olympics on today's episode of Oddball. They use several movie analogies in a feeble attempt to explain Steph Curry's fourth quarter performance. They also discuss Jayson Tatum's lack of playing time, why Devin Booker was so important to the team's success, and why Amin thinks Lebron James and Steph need to play together in the NBA. To close the show, they discuss the nail-biter that was the Team USA Women's gold medal match, and Amin comments on a resurfaced Noah Lyles quote. Learn more about your ad choices.
