Netflix Review: Court of Gold!

Welcome Back!

This week we dive in to discuss Court of Gold, Netflix’s inside look at the Men’s Teams competing for Olympic Gold in Paris. Since it’s release, I have watched this a few times. 6 1 hour episodes giving you a deep dive on preparation, games, and the winner of the Gold Medal.

Team USA is vying for it’s 5th Gold Medal.

Lebron , KD, Steph, Anthony Edwards, Jason Tatum, Jokic, Webanyama were locked in and ready to represent their countries.

France, Serbia, Canada were all trying to beat Team USA and even going as far as talking trash lol.

I loved this lowkey because come game time their words were ate every single time especially trying to guard Steph Curry.

As the medal rounds got going Team USA, had games where we as fans were left on our toes but ultimately to the Gold Medal game against host country France.

Before we get to the Gold Medal, I want to go back to the Serbia game, Team USA and particularly Steph Curry were always off to a slow start and keeping games close. The game against Serbia was a true test, and Curry had his breakout moment. Yes the wins are team efforts but Curry kept USA ahead and helped secure the win. Curry ended the game with 36 points and 9 three pointers. Team USA needed him and he showed up at the right time! 🙂

Gold Medal Game

France vs USA

Host Team vs Hometeam lol for me! I am always down to cheer on Team USA and this game was no different. It is almost a given USA is supposed to bring gold and dominate every sport.

France the trash talking team who felt like this was their opportunity to beat the Avengers. lol KD, Lebron, Steph, Anthony Edwards had other plans. The game was a legit battle, USA would get a small cushion but couldn’t extend the lead, France came storming back cutting the lead to single digits.

And then #4 happened…..

In the final minutes of France’s comeback, Stephen Curry did what he does best! Light it up from 3, hitting 4 three pointers and game ending 3 pointer to as he simply put it, put the kids to sleep.

Team USA went on to win it’s 5th consecutive gold medal at the Olympic Games.

I wonder LA 2028 will have in store, I can’t wait to see!

Congrats Team USA and thank you for putting on for the country!

Until next time….next we are headed to the NFL… 🙂
