Gilbert Arenas SLAMS Team USA's MASSIVE Mistake 

WNBA is ridiculous. They have a Larry Bird/Magic Johnson situation with Clark and Reese, who have the skills to back it up and are the literal two faces of the league and they fumbled it.

The WNBA should not be making any decisions for themselves 😂🤫😩🤦‍♀️

WNBA players don't understand that the hurt feelings of a few should not out weight the potential growth for the league. Not including Caitlyn and Angel probably cost the W millions of dollars. Their sacrifices would have help everyone else in the long run. And they wonder why the men make so much more. Business is business for the NBA.

Lexie makes no sense you bring Caitlin and angel because they have both been top 12-15 players in the league THIS season and they’re the most profitable in the league the goal is to always grow the game and popularity the league has never been profitable since its debut this would’ve helped

They about to lose millions by not having a Caitlin Clark or Angel Reese Team USA Jersey.

Her hate for see is showing

Bro, I cannot understand the oblivious hate she’s spreading. BIG sad, and shameful.. I like you Lexi! Cmon,mannnnn!

These Women are missing the large picture because of JEALOUSY

If you ever wonder why only 20% of feminist “yass queens” ever get married, listen to Lexie and ask yourself who could survive being around that delusion, negativity and jealousy 24-7

Nobody watching women's Olympic basketball without Clark and Reese

Lexi stays hatin', then tries to play the victim. Lexi, you're not good enough for this Olympic team. Her mindset is the reason Wnba hasn't grown

What I dont understand is that these mofos act like Clark or Reese cant play in international stage. 😅😅😅

Lexi light weight hating. It's a business standpoint Gil was speaking on. You sell more jerseys and more seats, and the fans will come for the drama.

Lexis’s justification is Angel and Caitlin will have future opportunities to play in the Olympics so don’t take away from the other older players 🤦🏼‍♀️ THIS is why the WNBA is a hot damn mess 🙄

This is a prime example of men think rationally vs women think emotionally.

Clark and Reese should be on the Olympic team this year 2024. They definitely will bring more fans along and closer to watching the Olympics and the WNBA! This is a big mistake from the WNBA!!!

6:02 Rashad is a madman! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

They should have held tryouts. That's how you find out who gets taken off.

Just when the wnba takes a step forward they got to find a way to take 5 steps back 😂😂 😂😂

Team USA fucked up. Women’s basketball is at its peak right now. This could’ve potentially had the global impact like the 92’ Dream Team did. You hear Gasol saying how the Dream team had a huge impact on him and how transcendent it was. Imagine them girls overseas watching Caitlin hitting logo 3s or Angel Reese.

I hope CC and Reese go off vs Olympic team.

Why are Lexie Brown and Sheryl Swoopes on this platform?

Hard to take anything Lexie say seriously. She's a hater for the new wave of WNBA stars.

You notice how easy it is for an nba player to list his starting 5? This chick was shook. Only picked her friends lmao

They hating on them young girls

Forget rookie of the year theese young ladies are ballin. You want to bring eyes to the W put them on Olympic team and the W becomes worldwide. Good for business

Watch CC and Barbie light up the Olympic team at all star when they play them.

Lexie went from “CC doesn’t fit, team USA is stacked” to, “they should have taken AR and CC”. I guess she didn’t like the criticism she was getting for hating…

Lexi acting like we’re keeping track of Olympic appearances 😂 no one cares about DT like that…she’s 41

Lexi shouldn’t give her opinion lol bunch of nonsense

Lexie part of the wave that doesn’t want to be part of the sacrifice for the game to grow, the WNBA could have taken massive leaps with Clark and Reese on the Olympic roster

Lexi doing everything to try and discredit caitlin smoking her

This shit painful to watch

And Brittany Ginder should be off that list FOR SURE she's a liability

"you can't take that away from Diana Taurasi. she deserves this." WHY? Suddenly Dinosaur Taurasi is bigger than the Olympic Team that they should bow down to her? GTFO.

Please stop with the women on this podcast, I'm not watching another one with a woman hooper on it. The NBA blew up internationally after the 92 Dream Team, they were smart enough to put Magic/Bird (retired/injury) on the team even though they shouldn't have been. Women are their own worst enemy.

Alyssa Thomas, a Reese and Clark should all be on that team...fuck all the bullshit

Both CC and AR should be on the USA team

Does Lexi not get it??? wow.

7:10 appreciate that Rashad 😂😂 shawty almost had a panic attack

The fact that they Cut Alijah Arenas is horrible. They then went on to blow everyone out. In 17u so why didn’t Kiyan and Alijah make it? It’s ridiculous

Neither Taurasi or Big Bird should be on the team.

Gil I love yalls show , thanks a bunch.

this podcast has quickly turned into the Lakers and WNBA talk show. Its all they talk about!

here are 10 points to ponder as to why Clark should be there, can you imagine Clark passing off her passes to the members of Team USA and what the result might be. Keep in mind that in just 22 games she has done this, throw in that she is still in her "transition" to the WNBA, 1) Currently, there are just four in its 28th season, Caitlin Clark makes WNBA history with the first-ever rookie triple-double 2) Clark became the fastest WNBA rookie to record 100 assists since Sue Bird in 2002. 3) Caitlin Clark is the fastest player in WNBA history to record 100 points and 50 assists 3)Catlin Clark became the fastest player in league history to reach 250 points and 100 assists. 3) Caitlin Clark became the fastest player in WNBA history to record 350 points and 150 assists 4) Caitlin Clark leads the League with total pts scored by the player and from their assists Joni, that Stat is a combined points with points from assists 5) Caitlin Clark now leads the WNBA in three-pointers made, posting 54 threes on the season, 6) Clark leads all first-year players with an average of 16.3 points and 6.6 assists. 7) Clark is the only player in the rookie class to be in the Top 5 in major statistical categories, such as points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. 8) Clark has a #3 ranking in the ESPN WNBA Player Stats 2024 and Reese's ranking is down at #50 9) Clark is the only visiting player Rookie or otherwise to receive not one but two standing ovations from the home team crowd 10) Clark after just 22 games is already on the list for being one of the top 30 guards the all-time for double-doubles Guards tying Kelsey Plum with 5

You played yourself if you think the country is going to be happy giving co-rookie of the year 😂 people gonna be mad either way

Would be hilarious if they both opted out just to be petty 😂😂

CC is definitely on par with the guards on this roster. Imagine if you surround her with teammates who can actually finish consistently

Why do Rashad McCants has on Basketball shorts on with Snow Boots lol

Really truthfully, most of the newer young ladies that were scrubbed from being on the recent Olympic teams, is going to be on this year's wnba Allstars team and they're set to face this year's Olympics team that wanted to be on a petty buddy- buddy system. Can't tell me those Allstars aint going to turn up on them.lol Gonna be must see TV!!

Once the list came out you take out Chelsea Gray. She hadn't played a lick and she still aint doing shit. 1 for 9 last game for 3 points. Crazy

“This is my, this is my” 😂😂

hey gilbert can you make a video on which is better being raw prospect or being a nba ready now prospect

Lexi hella confused

There’s a player on the team who hasn’t played a single game this season.

Gil I love the pod. They both got snubbed fact Olympic committee is not representing Gil is 100 percent Angel and CC should be on team.

She’s just a Kaitlyn Clark hater. It’s obvious. And probably for the same reason that others in the league hate her and we all know what that is!

Arenas exactly hit the point , 11 & 12 are essentially reserves and those two could soak up the experience and be the leaders. And you're supposed to manage the program in its entirety not a one time thing And yeah agree once list comes out , it's too late with exception of injury Short sighted USA basketball - Man an all star that might actually be competitive and worth watching

Those two 100% should’ve been on that team to play to help grow the game & to engage w/ the fans.

That sometimes you gotta pop out was so cringe 😂

I sware Lexi is so damn fine

I agree with Lexie. Angel and CC, will headline the olympics at home! Imagine that squad my goodness!

Why would she think she would be going ? 😅😂 why y’all let her lie on there 😂😂😂

Chase was not playing almost for a long time injured, if it’s merit what has she done this season?

2:44 She is delusional! Can't even article her opinion!

Hot take Caitlin Clark not only should be on this team on merit she deserves to start for it. Name a better PG right now.

They still haven't said what the criteria was for the selection committee. Used to be they had tryouts.

You: Bronny is taking another player’s chance😡 Also: Just give Caitlin Clark a spot!

Please Lexie lol… it would have amazing if Clark and Reese made the team this time around.. but whatever that’s they league so let them run it how they want 🤷🏾‍♂️

damn lexie is pretty

I have a solution❗️❗️❗️Extend the team Rosters to 15 players, Add 1 veteran and 2 College WNBA rookies Reese & Clark for emergency 🚨 in case of injuries… They come in and on blowout’s or injuries

6:03 this is EXACTLY what we need to see 🤣

Then they'll cry and say they don't get paid but the biggest marketing opportunity in WNBA history to have Angel and CC play together, they decided to hate because the spotlight is on them. I guarantee you it was the hating old heads. Idc ALL of these WNBA players are bitter as hell including this one. I said it last time, the fake words don't match what their faces are saying. Hella envy

USABB elevating the old men, snubbing young women, while NBA failed to promote next "face of the league" and WNBA vets shaded rookies. How To Lose Viewers Since Jordan 101.

Lexie Brown is wrong on this one. DT doesn’t need to be on the team since it’s her 6th Olympics and BG could be off the team, too. Exposure is a main goal for every Olympic team. And it’s baffling to expect the team to stay competitive if you’re not fielding and exposing younger players to learn. Caitlin and Reese both should be on the team.

The funniest part was Lexi at the beginning saying the selection is weird, followed by saying “I’ve come to terms with I’m not gonna be on a USA team” as if she was ever on the list to be picked lmao

The sad thing is, I'm not sure if it's racism, or that most women in the wnba are lesbian & hate that these girls not, yes, there is a big problem with gay women dominating a sports league, I believe there's no room for that in professional sports, just imagine if Michael Jordan was gay & marrying Scottie Pippin, or Magic marrying Worthy during their respective careers, it would've destroyed the NBA entirely, but here we are allowing women to do this in the wnba, this is why sponsors stood away from supporting the wnba so many yrs, someone explain to me how in the world can you sponsor a league like that without promoting lgbtq, its impossible, that's why Reese & Caitlin are the talk of the wnba, because they're not gay, they're straight, sponsors will support that all day! Nobody is talking about this because it's a touchy controversial topic, & if they do their careers are on the line!

The comment section seems like nothing but followers. Lexi is right! She’s not hating because she doesn’t agree. Tired of all these random fans thinking they know what’s best for the WNBA. The game is growing regardless of whether they’re on the Olympic team or not.

The fact that they chose 5 SG's and only 1 real PG for the team shows that they went out of their way NOT to bring CC.

Envy is major issue with these players.

did anybody watched how good that aj gurl from the LVA is . or the liberty center

I know this vid is about the W, but damn Tyreek was COLD, could have been similar to what Kyrie was if he didn’t get in his own head man

i love mCcants hahaha

It’s crazy because before CC and AR all the WNBA players were talking about was growth and more recognition. Once CC and AR got more recognition to the WNBA now it’s not about the growth and recognition anymore

Gil was streaming playing video games last time Angel vs CC was on tv he doesn’t watch the wnba

It’s about player development and for the future. They should have been on the team to learn the ropes either one or the other.

Team USA should not have picked injured Chelsea Gray, as there was no evidence that she would perform post-injury at the similar level pre-injury. Her latest stats show Chelsea does not belong at all at the Olympics.

Ain't nobody watching a basketball game to see rebounds.

Caitlin Clark has 3 gold medals from Team USA youth team.

Bro said Plum and Chelsea Gray can sit down, is he crazy 😂. He definitely don’t watch WNBA

Think about bringing that Beef to the International stage. It's also a Mid-season event during the WNBA season. They're trying to preserve the rivalry. Can't have being teammates yet.

Hate on the WNBA all you want for this but the fact this storyline is being discussed while we got a WNBA vs. USA game about to come makes it 10x more fun to watch. Arike, Angel, Clark, and the Sun girls are about to go insane on those Olympians.

All the players on the mens USA basketball team play in their games. None of them are going to sit on the bench knowing they wont play; they would not go unless they knew they were going to get significant playing time.

CC is Larry Bird Curry Reese is Rodman

This is wild let’s put them on the Olympic team just cause they popular

There is no way they are co-rookie of the year. Caitlyn Clark is the rookie of the year period!

I been thought Caitlin Clark should have been on Team USA but now with how her and Angel is playing along with their popularity I think they missed a golden opportunity to have both on and really get their league out there idc if There’s better players it’s about business & they still would win when Clark & Angel

Give them Co-Rookie of the year like Kidd & Hill.

Reese and Clark should both be on that team. There are multiple women currently on the team that will not be in 4 years because of age. Replace them now and get the young players some experience. Not to mention that would put 100 times more eyes on those games and make every player on that team rich with endorsements.

Why is Gil mentioning Jrue holiday as if he sucks and saying there are 20 players better than him... and in others and this show they are always comparing Bronny James to him saying bronny can be like a Jrue Holiday... the disrespect is unreal.. he is a 2 time champion and a great player in my eyes and plays the best gurad on ball defender
