Joker deserved mvp but you ain't ready for that convo

All I know is Steph & KD saved the US this yr

Bean saved the US in 08


A breh in here posted a video from Curry with Ant saying (joking but not joking, in Curry face) Curry didn’t “Curry didn’t show up to Paris until THREE DAYS AGO” :mjlol:

Team USA been there 5 weeks :steviej:

Curry ain’t deny….. take that how ever it needs to be taken :sas2:

I like Tyrese’s attitude….he know he gonna be apart of the future Olympic squads and have a bigger impact. Tatum on the other hand has been :mjcry: about not getting any PT when he should just enjoy the experience and be apart of greatness.

Tatum has been better than KD & Bron for the last 3 seasons

Tatum was the 2nd leading scorer on the last Olympic team

And ppl think he's the 11th best player on this team, FOH

The disrespect is crazy

I'm not taking nikkas like Bam, Book, Ant, Jrue, White, etc over him

The plan should've been to start him so he'd be ready to lead the team in 2028

If I'm him, I absolutely pass on LA

France gonna smoke the US in 4 yrs without him

People have different personalities. Tatum seems to be a more intense sensitive breh, while Haliburton is more of a light hearted, don't take myself too seriously cat. Tatum will probably have a great season annd still has extra layers of growth in his game, I would be shocked if he isn't at 2028 as a starter.

How did joker deserve it over lebron? Please state your case and show precedence as evidence, let talk strictly basketball. Lebron was the best player on this team usa while also being the oldest player.

Fck narrative

Joker led the Olympics in Assists, Rebs, 4th in stls, 5th in pts

Sat 9 mins vs the us, team was -26 without him and lost by 26

He plays the whole game but 2 mins the other day, US only wins by 4

More Rebs, stls, pts, and assts than Bron but he's not MVP

:mjlol:

Devin Booker getting his respect, put his ego to the side and did whatever needed to be done for the team:ehh:


I WAS JUST ABOUT TO POST THIS.

HE REALLY IMPRESSED ME....

THIS IS AN ELITE SCORER
AND I DONT REMEMBER HIM
GOING ISO ONE SINGLE TIME
IN THIS OLYMPICS...
JUST FOCUSED ON DEFENSE
AND MADE BUCKETS WHEN
THE OPPORTUNITY PRESENTED ITSELF

I WONDER IF THIS WILL
TRANSLATE TO HE AND KDS
CHEMISTRY NEXT SEASON.

:devil:
:evil:

Think it will because they had to put him at PG and run point and it wasn't natural for him. That Tyus Jones signin was big for em I dont know how they got that nikka but it allow KD and Book to be who they are and not try to run more point. Turnovers killed em last season and now they got Tyus and Monte Morris who were both top 3 in assist to turnover ratio.
