He is actually playing very selfish and hurting his team. Not that there is anything wrong with that in a game like this.

It's crazy how when I was a kid and a teen I loved these exhibition games for the high scoring and dunks. Now though it just gets old, even though I never thought I'd say it. The NBA needs to spice these games up somehow.

Team World has far, far more talent


But why is that? These guys are all the same years in the league as the USA team...drafted in the same classes, etc.

Well Simmons, embiid, saric, and bogdanovic were not drafted in the same classes as the other guys

Jaylen Brown is a one man team.
New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

I'm going to take a guess and say the U.S. is a lot younger. Embiid is technically in his fourth season, Bogs is 25, Heild was a four year college player........U.S. is mostly one and dones.

Same here. It is difficult to enjoy a game where no defense is being played when it results in a blowout.
