00:00We're not going to make the assumption Team USA is going to win the gold, but for the
00:06purposes of betting, it's not a bettable asset right now for you to bet the gold.
00:10So for the silver and the bronze, I give you Canada, France, Germany, Serbia, and Australia.
00:19You must have made a prediction over at Sporting News prior.
00:21Have you changed at all?
00:23And how do you see this now moving forward?
00:25You know, I listed Germany as the greatest threat or after Canada to Team USA, and I'll
00:31stick with that.
00:32I think that Germany, more so than Canada, I think that their talent, it's a little more
00:37tiered.
00:38You know what Dennis Schroeder is capable of, Franz Wagner, another player, Daniel Tice
00:41steps up, and Mo Wagner as well.
00:43They're built to really take advantage of the mistakes that Team USA makes, and they
00:47can make the effort plays, and they can also have a hot shooting night, which I think those
00:51are the things that make you capable of going far in a tournament like this.
00:56Ultimately, it's just six games, three in pool play, and three to get to the medal game.
01:01So in a tournament like that, I think Germany is built to do that, especially with the way
01:05that Dennis Schroeder stars in his role, and the other guys do as well.
