Bogdan Bogdanovic on officiating after loss: 'USA doesn't need that type of help against us'
“We tried to talk to them; they didn’t try to talk to us. They just walked away. But it’s ok. The USA doesn’t need that type of help against us. You know, we didn’t have that type of help when they were grabbing us with two hands and all that,” Bogdanovic said to BasketNews, expressing his frustration.

I was glad to see @KingJames warm, slightly extended embrace of Bogdan Bogdanovic post-game. Bogdanovic played his ass off and had a testy moment or two with James. It was a deserved hug and show of respect from Bron. – 5:05 PM

Tough 6-point swing there for the US with Steph Curry missing an open 3 and Bogdan Bogdanovic knocking his look down. Just have to chip away and stay within striking distance entering the 4th. Even playing just 40 minutes, there’s a long way to go. #Olympics – 3:40 PM

“But I’m not that type of guy who will talk about referees, you know, and I even wanted to win against referees too, you know, and respect to us for keeping it calm the whole game and not talking to them,” Bogdanovic admitted to BasketNews. -via BasketNews / August 8, 2024

Gary Washburn: Serbia’s Bogdan Bogdanovic on why teammate Nikola Jokic hasn’t talked with the media at the Olympics: “He’s great, but he only likes to talk to me, you know that. In the NBA, if he doesn’t talk to media, he’ll get fined. But here (in the Olympics), there are no fines. So he says, ‘I don’t need to.’ No offense to you guys.” #Paris2024 -via x.com / August 6, 2024
