N1gga I aint white. And fukk u. Get Dryamonds dikk out ya mouth.

Morris twin on the clips deserve a spot over him.
Sorry, you trigger my radar a lot. :yeshrug:

If you want Morris in there then put him over Jeremi or Keldon, there's no reason to have both of them slotted in the same "energy guy" role when it's only a 10-15 minute niche role anyway. Taking Draymond out for Morris would be silly cause who would run the offense for 40 minutes and who would play defense inside? The two weakest areas for the USA are passing and interior defense, why would you remove the player who slots in at both in order to just add yet another shooter?

We simply don't have the horses.

Melo, Wade, Kobe, Bron etc., we had DUDES.

Rest of the world got better with more NBA players. Time for new blood but who will take the mantle?

Seems like Tim Duncan moves up 1 spot on my all-Time list every time I see Pop coach without him :scust:

Nah Duncan got exposed too on that ‘04 Olympics team. Swap him with Kobe or KG and they would’ve been willed to Gold medal.

They shouldn't even need to worry about interior D. Middleton should be getting superstar treatment after what he's done. The only person he should defer to is KD.

49ers..Braves..Celtics
Lol @ if we had this guy or that guy.. the players you want are either injured already or declined to come because they are old.

There are some exceptions of course and the team could have been constructed better but the chances of having LeBron, Curry and kawhi were ZERO...
