The world is getting better but u need to be honest...Team USA is missing A LOT of players
Ehh, the world is getting better but at the same time Team USA haven’t fielded a team with their best players since 2012 honestly.

A lot of guys pulled out or rejected invites in 2014, 2016, 2019 & this year.

Did you not see the timeframe I gave?

You men are making numerous dangerous short-sighted assumptions. Firstly, that America will always produce superstars, look at the Brazilian national football team for an example. Because of you X superstar with X skill level that in 15-20 years you should have similar skill level. This isn’t assured. You are assuming other nations won’t produce players at the same calibre and more of them as well. In 15-20 years from now, you will have 7-8 teams with 3-4 players of NBA calibre on their national team. So winning gold in years to come won’t be certain for America and the path to gold will be harder than ever.

Give it 15 years minimum and 20 years maximum and America won’t be guaranteed the gold medal anymore. The world is rapidly catching up. Don’t rest on your laurels America or else.

no they’re not. Our best of the best aren’t even playing and they barely won by three points lol. Stop it.

The coli dot com

out of the top ten scorers in the league this year
Us has the 2nd, 3rd, 7th, 10th on this team and that’s not including Kevin Durant

Ok? And does that change the fact that the teams the USA has been sending out in recent tournaments haven’t been close to the best squads they can field? Did you read to comprehend or to respond?

The US down the stretch had Tatum, Durant, beal/lavine, lilliard and draymond green and still couldn't get it done

How the hell isn't that the best of the best :dahell:
