Also is it me or do we have no answer for Wemby or Jokic on this team?


There’s one thing this team is clearly missing: a speedster.

There’s one roster spot left, and I’d pick Fox.

Kyrie Irving would be my pick for the last spot.

It's just 1 game and SGA/Murray can go off easily. We're gonna take that medal just like we did this past summer :)

If they are smart they should add AG. Great defender who can guard multiple positions. Doesn’t need to have the ball in his hands to be effective.

This team seems old, lacks a clear pecking order and Embiid is prob gonna be hurt. This is one of the weaker teams we have sent out.

Tatum is a good defender.
Durant can be when his offensive load is lightened.
Maybe even LeBron can be managed to the point he can play defense.

Some teams are going to be pretty tired to start next season.

Whichever of the Celtics, Wolves, Lakers and Suns go deep into the playoffs are the obvious ones. (Even worse for the Celtics in that respect is if Porzingis gets Olympic run, but I haven't tracked whether that's likely.)

Finally, back to "Team A" and this is a tournament where the Americans can't cook up any kind of excuse.

i expect double digits win throughout the Olympics for USA.
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

I really hope he doesn’t. We have a bounty of older, injury prone players as it is. No more, please.
