The other team had Looney, Davion Mitchell, and some other mix of Kings/Warriors I thought
There was a really weird vibe with Dallas off the get go. It was obvious Kidd didn't like the trade and I have no idea whether it was more Kidd...
Team USA should have taken Kuzma instead of BI. Kuz will do what the team needs and during the bubble run and the year after he definitely showed...
Olympics need AD and Looney and a stopper like Caruso. Talent differential is no longer there where you can't take roster construction into...
Feel good for hedgehog. Wish he was still a Laker
Congrats to Dennis. Really wish the Lakers could have kept him. Gelled with the team and was a baller last year and did get great in the world cup
The 1/3rd of the roster that won't see playoff minutes......... This will now be me awaiting all the Vando fans [IMG]
Good point about Looney: US could have really used him. Doesn't get backed down, excellent rebounder, bruising screens
The pendulum swings. After seeing what Jokic did to the league last year, Duncan would easily go number 1I nteresting wasn't Duncan underwhelming...
Same thing happened last Olympics and then Holiday came and totally changed the defense. That team looked like they were in real trouble before...
Team makesup is huge: Jrue Holiday was freakin huge last Team USA run. Lillard sucked and was getting torched on defense and then Jrue came in...
AD 3 point shooting really has impacted how the Lakers have decided to team build. Schroeder brought a lot of value last year including that...
I've been a huge fan since the beginning with Austin: I have the receipts in this very thread but it is not nitpicking when the other team...
Team USA desperately needs AD to come back or at least Bam. Also I hate to say but the lack of C and PF US prospects out there - team USA better...
I didn't like Kerr's coaching here but man JJJ needs to step up. Reaves definitely got targeted by Schroeder but not having any rim protection...
As good as his offense was during the World Cup, the defense was a real issue. Lithuania attacked him in the post and then Schroeder basically...
No doubt the world is getting better but these are the best American players at their relative positions C: AD/Bam PF: probably Lebron but you can...
forgot how big he is - he's more of a wing then a 4. Very good jumper plus the slashing
the real issue is for the US is once you won an Olympic gold, players kind of rightfully feel like they fulfilled their national team obligations...
Can't give an A+ when Whitmore was available to be picked :dwightcrying:. This roster with Whitmore backing up Reaves/Christie/Vincent sigh.
