Embiid gonna end up hurt if he tries that stuff against some of these tougher teams. Powell took that way way too well.

Kerr is just trying to damage Team Canada as much as possible. Even if they have overwhelming talent he's just not going to take any chances. It's also because Wiggins has lost goodwill with Kerr and Warriors. Otherwise they'd let him play.


You're better off without a washed up Wiggins though. So could be a blessing in disguise. LOL


Yeah yes and no. Wiggins is seldom motivated but when he's motivated, like the year Warriors won the chip, he's a different player. I think he is motivated to play with this team, as this is his last go with them given his age, I think he would have been a good bench wing we could have used defensively. Kerr knows this well after having him for a few years.

Embiid is never beating the allegations, one of the cheapest dudes in the league. Pathetic.

Joel Embiid is a bitch. This man deserves no respect and I hope he never wins a thing.

Hopefully these aren’t the starters are team USA. Bad chemistry, bad defense all around
