I think only 3-4 of these guys have a chance of being on the Olympic team.

Ant, Paolo, JJJ and maybe Hali

[In The Zone '98]

Jaren, why are you contesting his hand.

Put your hand in his face.

 

[aceboon]

JJJ got a fetish for fouling

 

[iamduval]

This man don’t know how to contest without fouling.

 

[Nero Christ]

US gotta hope some skilled bigs develop in the next few years cause that is where the rest of the world has the edge over them.

 

[iamduval]

And they should switch everything when Brunson is not in

 

[Mike18jj]

JJJ a foul master, every game either it’s NBA or fiba he’s in foul trouble

 

[Primetime21]

Ant, Paolo, JJJ and maybe Hali

Yes. And JJJ depends on what bigs commit to playing in Paris. They are still recruiting Embiid, and Bam (who started for the team in Tokyo) would figure to be in play as well.

 

[Mister Terrific]

Anthony Edwards is a superstar brehs?

 

[iamduval]

Ant got tunnel vision

 

[NigerianDonDada]

Y'all think USA is going to come back? Thinking about placing a bet on Lithuania ML

 

[Slim]

This is just bad basketball by Team USA.

 

[Nero Christ]

Ant got tunnel vision

Is Reaves the only player who really looks to set others up

 

[iamduval]

Yeah they’re just better. They actually run a crisp pick and roll and probe dribble instead of chucking bullshyt
