And in response to International playwrs playing for their country. They have played with these guys up the international ranks. They know each other, there is team chemistry. Team USA is assembled last minute. And it shows.

Evan Fournier has scored 30+ multiple times in the NBA

Dude been the goods since the Magic man I know.

I meant to post this way earlier but just in theory, how many NBA teams would win gold these days. Of course without their international stars

Lakers
Clippers
Nuggets
Nets
Suns
Bucks

Quite a few top tier NBA teams would win the gold medal. The French roster was led by Gobert, Fournier and Batum, talent isn't the reason team USA is losing, It's defense and continuity.

The Nuggets?
The Bucks?

You forgetting who their best players are?

None. Its one thing to play for your club another to play for your country. All those teams you mentioned would get smoked by a very organised and motivated top international country.

I was thinking hypothetically, if all rosters were intact and healthy. If we're going on just the best American players on each roster then I don't think any team could win it.

Every 4 years, it's clear who is just jumping in international play conversations, new to the game.

warriors too. healthy, they bodying fiba. easy foul rules, close 3pt line, and no goaltending, nba teams would eat.

 

[bigbadbennyism]

Its pure arrogance to think that those NBA Teams would beat the likes of Spain, Argentina, Serbia, Croatia, France, Greece, Australia or any other top 10 International team. The huge gap there once was is gone.

Kind of a word thing to hate on. I've seen parents do way worst and no one had a problem, but they weren't super famous.

They couldn't even handle Dillon Brooks and Slow-Mo, stop it.

Baron Davis out here auditioning for my 600 lb life

 

[amitt5504]

Lakers the only team that could do it. Miami maybeeee but a big maybe. Clippers a maybe too

 

[ballinsam23]

Lol no one outside maybe the championship team is winning gold.

Nets probably would though.

I get IT feels he has unfinished business in the NBA, but if I were him, I’d go be a hero in China. I think he potentially could get the Marbury treatment over there.

 

[frshstunna]

They gotta hurry up and get Dray outta there already, he be feeling himself too much for a cat that can’t make a layup

I agree with darthska or 23ska. I've seen parents teach their kids that Sleepy Joseph is the legitimate POTUS and other liberal abuse.

Team Canada taking gold in 2025.

The gotta worry bout qualifying for anything 1st …There was talks bout them medaling with all their talent at by this Olympics but Canadian basketball always disappoints

they werent healthy. i'm talking healthy, like all players available. klay available. oubre. wiseman.

Womens basketball doesnt have the 1-15 jersey number rule? This Spain vs Korea game (was kinda fire actually) has just regular numbers on their jerseys.

Canada missing out on top tier talent this time due to injury didn’t help. SGA, Murray, Brooks going to be entertaining with RJ, Dort & veteran Wiggins. They need better big man play though.

Khem Birch not being there also hurt them
