Audie Murphy ain't walking through that door

 

[clyde the glide]

Shambles

Last few minutes illustrate how harmful automatic switching was. Schroder was able to get Reaves on him for blow-bys and that middy at the end. Could've just hard-doubled Schroder and made Bonga make a play.

*Looking at you Steve Kerr

 

[don ramon]

this should be a humbling experience, but probably not

steve kerr needs to be interrogated

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Get Steve Kerr outta there

 

[millzszn93]

Germany vs Serbia will be great

Get Steve Kerr outta there

Damn 1st time coaching and didn’t get gold

 

[B Sox]

While our bigs usually aren’t our strong suit, we’d at least have Tatum and KD on the wing who are both strong rebounders (and defenders). Definitely missing that on this World Cup team.

 

[Platinum State]

What changes do you even make for the olympics? Would having Ja, Tatum, Zion, Fox, Jimmy, Bam and Booker change anything? The problem isnt star power its the approach to these games. Half assing it, thinking its gonna be easy. I bet they barely practiced

 

[QU!K]

USA sent a team of like 3 All-Stars and expected to win lol

 

[sohi 23]

Most disappointing members of the team were easily Brandon Ingram & Cam Johnson but I am now starting my personal vendetta against JJJ.

DPOY WHO CANT PLAY MORE THAN 30 MINUTES BECAUSE HE CANT STOP FOULING?!

DPOY WHO HAS NEVER AVERAGED MORE THAN 7 BOARDS IN A SEASON.

he better send that DPOY award to ad the rightful owner.

Also I don’t want to see any projected 2024 usa roster without AD.

 

[millzszn93]

Imagine if Serbia had jokic

And Canada had wiggins and Murray

Have legit bigs in AD, Bam and Joel potentially.

Zion too would go a long way to fix the rebounding issue

[Peep Game]

“World champions of WHAT?”

 

[T0INE]

JJJ don’t even rebound in America. Big ask of him to do it for the country

They gotta get some rebounders for next year's team.

Looney would've been a big help for this tournament.

 

[CHAOSE57]

Germany was the better team, respect.

Interested to see Ant take that leap this season, he looks amazing.

 

[amitt5504]

Really didn’t even consider Maxey lol

 

[RustyShackleford]

I think it was a lack of patriotism is what did this team in

Should've brought Cooper Flagg

I know aepps20 agrees

 

[MVP]

Don't let anyone besides Antman and AR back though customs... embarrassing.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

DPOY is wide open this season

 

[pmatic]

Think the players were too lackadasical on defense until the fourth. Kerr didn't do them any favors with the auto-switching and not being big enough up front.

Think the Haliburton-Reaves-Edwards-Bridges-JJJ lineup was the one that made a run vs Germany in the friendly a few weeks ago. Went to it too late in this game.

Yes
