That was some of worst volleyball ever, like 8 errors in a row for US, they switched sides it was so atrocious. Commentator asking about rate of errors too. Trevor is so out of it.

Brazil barely had to work in the second set. USA gifted them half the points in errors. What a quick set. In fact Trevor serves way long to give them match point.
2-0, 6-6, 7-14, 10-21
Another 4th place finish for T2...

well that was a sucky match. And we thought MHP made a little too many errors in the gold medal match last week, Trevor should rewatch this one. That was just ugly. Brazil will have two medals this week. Let’s see how Evandro plays against Norway.

Trevor is largely outclassed internationally against top teams, he's a very good domestic player but I'd never bet on him against 4 or 5 star teams. This was a very good tournament for them but I've said it before, saying it again, Tri is the prize of this pair.

They are maxed out, Tri can improve with someone like Taylor.

looking at the stands makes me question the fivb franchise system a lot. the tournament isn’t there because volleyball fans want it there. it’s there because someone paid to have it there. very poor business model. the fivb or beach major series should choose the location for every 4 star and up tournaments and run them

I don’t think we will see Gibb/Crabb for awhile on the FIVB.

There isn't. The AVP just does a much better job of balancing the two and have a better market to work with. Why China is paying for so many events is a mystery though

Mol/Sorum get their second gold this week after winning in Brazil last Sunday and traveling 40 hours to China. Evandro with some bombs on serve but Norway calmed down after the first set and won in 3.
Seems hard to find nicer guys on the tour than the Vikings. Their humility is especially impressive with how well they have done at a young age.

Their humility is especially impressive with how well they have done at a young age. Nice to see Evandro back in a final too. The only two players out there right now that can really measure up to Mol are Evandro and Phil (and Phil maybe not so often anymore). Would love to see Bruno continue this renaissance so they can challenge Norway more often

Norway is bizarre!
Win in Brazil. Travel 40+ hours to get to China. Win again in China.

Norway is bizarre! Win in Brazil. Travel 40+ hours to get to China. Win again in China. Doesnt seem to have had any negative effects at all. Of the top 4 finishers on both sides, 1 team in 8 did not play Brazil (Clancy/Mariafe)

I don’t think we will see Gibb/Crabb for awhile on the FIVB. Why do you say that? Do you know why they dropped out of Jinjiang and Ostrava? Looks like they are still registered for Warsaw the week after AVP NYC.
