I actually like Duren a lot. Wouldnt be surprised if hes on the next FIBA roster.

Talking about Team USA's lack of competent Bigs who can rebound and defend the paint so they can compete against teams who actually have legit NBA Big Men such as Valnciunas is music to my ears

Kerr needed to play Kessler way more than 5 minutes.

But I get it, Kerr coaches a team full of smurfs called the Golden State Warriors so he wouldn't know what to do with a big man these days. And Steph Curry ain't there to save him this time around so he got a first hand look of what a big man can of whoopxxx tastes like and why he needs to utilize his big men (JJ, Kessler, Banchero, Portis) a whole lot more if he wants to beat the best Euro teams.

You ain't winning the tournament if you ain't dominating the paint and controlling the boards.

We gotta stop prioritzing inflated stats and get back to physical basketball which means developing bigs.

It's #rocketscience in the NBA though

So if US lose again that’s it

Grant Hill wasn’t paying attention in 2002 and 2004. You can’t expect to throw a team together 2 months before the tournament and expect them to dominate anymore. There’s a reason why Colangelo and Coach K restructured the program so that it had continuity. If you wanted to play for the Olympic team, it was a multi-year commitment, where you had to attend camp and in some instances, try out. Thats why this FIBA roster is trash. All the good players who will play next year knew they didn’t have to show up for the World Cup

I prefer FIBA officiating and physicality over the NBA. They give the defense a chance in fiba

Nah famb. I can’t let that comment slide. Not sure if that Twitter user watched the video on mute but they said the batter struck out FOUR TIMES prior to that at bat where he hit a WALK OFF HR. He absolutely deserved to talk his **** and walk his walk in those circumstances (even if he was 4/4 prior, it would still be acceptable).

Admittedly it's nice not having to watch Luka or SGA shoot 12 free throws a game.

For Paris Olympics does the roster have to be the same as the World Cup roster?

Y’all ain’t lying but we just won the Olympics with KD guarding centers

Great point. I think the style/size of this USA team could work with Kerr if the team had the best players Aka the guys who will be playing next summer. It’s probably a non-issue for the Olympics but I think folks always just get rattled when Team USA isn’t dominating.

Are you saying Steve Kerr is only a quality coach when the decks are stacked in his favor?

A WALK OFF HR AFTER 4 STRIKEOUTS

"Act like you've been there before"

WHO'S BEEN THERE BEFORE!?!?
