Isaiah Thomas

If guys were like, you know what?

I wanna be on the U.S.

men's national team, the World Cup.

I think it's hard, Ocho, because your big event only really comes once every four years.

It's kind of like being an Olympian.

You kind of forgotten until the Olympics roll around.

Now they've kind of done some other things now in track and field.

You got the Diamond League, you got the World Cup, I mean the World Championships that come around every other year and then you skip the one odd year.

But other than that, football, you know, hey, we got a Super Bowl every year, Ocho.

You got the World Series every year.

You get the NBA finals every year.

Now, if you're on that level, Ronaldo and all those others where you got La Liga.

That's another world.

Yes.

In America, this is hard.

I mean, but Florian Balogun, two goals, three shots on target, four shots, five duels won, 11 touches in the opponent's box.

He's the first player to score a brace in the tournament.

Balogun's two-goal performance is the first multi-goal World Cup game by a U.S.

men's national player since 1930.

Damn.
