Top 10 NBA draft picks have been bunch of international players lately.
Bunch of International MVP's too.

Sheeeiit. if Embid didnt turn his back on his country we'd already be cooked.

Yea I dont get why people continue to parrot this. The world has been "caught up" for the last 20 years, the US remains with the best/deepest talent pool hence why we've captured gold the last 4 olympics. Even when you look at the field the teams aren't even as good as what they're hyped to be, 08/12 Spain squads would wash all of these teams outside of the US.

Good. He showing maturity here and he said he believes his teammates fast enough to take the gold.
I think almost not getting gold in the 100 had him :whoa: a bit. Dude was talking his shyt in the first few rounds, then I noticed he chilled with the trash talk after.

When I heard those interviews early in the rounds, I was like, “win first before talking that talk. :wtf:

^^ MF had this goofy shyt saved in a wordpad document just waiting to copy and paste.
:mjlol:


Okay.

USA basketball will never ever struggle or face any kind of resistance in international play, ever.

ITs always going to be just as easy as it was for the 1992 Dream team. Dont even play the games just hand us the gold for the next 10 Olympics and call it a day.

Happy now? :heh:

Exactly. French guards have already fallen off even though they’ll continue to have a good front court. Patty Mills won’t be there to carry Australia. The Wagner brothers probably got one more Olympics and Schroeder is 30 and Theis is 32. Spain is in terrible shape. Jokic is 29 and Bogdan is 31.

Honestly I’m more worried about Africa. We should shut down NBA Africa immediately and freeze Loul Dengs bank accounts. :mjpls:
