It's crazy that nobody mentioned the goat of the Olympics KD. How many times has this man stepped up for team USA ? Show some respect to that man. KD has been balling 🔥 as expected. We told you so.
KD giving Giannis the respect that ESPN never gives Giannis. Jokic shouldn't have won that third MVP. Giannis is my favorite player but the MVP was Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Let's be fair
Jokic should have 3 MVPs anyway, because one season he should have won and they gave it to another player, so it doesn't matter the order , he still is a 3 time MVP.
I agree i promises you we gonna get a curry cooking game. Where he is so on fire the french fire department would have to come in a hose down the nets lol.
Rest of the world has gotten so much better. But speaking as a Canadian Team USA should win. Crazy overall roster. The thing is some of the other international teams have played together longer and have built chemistry.
KD needs to be healthy first. KD will be fine. Let not forget last olympics, where Windy and everyone WENT MIA on Gregs challenege and outside of a few dude noone really stepped up in 2020/21. This team has alot more dudes who HAVE to step up than the last olympic team now that KD is gonna be on a minute limit for a few games
It is worth noting that the game has grown globally since 1992, but the NBA was also more insular leading to it being more American. In 2024, Oscar Schmidt plays in the NBA. Dino Radja, Zan Tabak, Toni Kukoc, Arvydas Sabonis, etc would have already been in the NBA (geopolitics also being different would have had Sabonis in the NBA long before he did). With how the rules have changed, Drazen Petrovic would have been first team All-NBA, and not a role player. It is kind of insulting to the previous generation, especially the guys on those Croatia and Lithuania teams. Also, just don't ignore that 1992 and 1993 Jordan was at his absolute individual peak. Chris Mullin shot 45% from three the next year. Drexler, Barkley, Ewing, Stockton, and Malone were hitting their primes. Say what you will about LeBron, KD, and Steph. They are the best of their era, and still excellent players, but are past their best. LeBron was at his peak in 2012 and 2013. He isn't washed, but he isn't what he was at his peak. The same for Steph and DK. ANT probably isn't at his peak yet. The player in his prime is probably Embiid, and FIBA has not been kind to him so far. Booker and Tatum are close to it, but are not likely to be featured players.
The fact the USA Media is sleeping on Australia is laughable, we literally beat every team but USA in the exhibition matches and just whooped Spain. Stop the disrespect - absolute rookie analysts.
Steph was the first one to score 24 points in the exhibition game on the USA team this year & they still hating smh the Lebron narrative is being pushed like crazy! That's why ppl dont fw lebron- this is exactly why. Steph is the biggest factor of this team whether yall admit it or not- hes a vet that plays with the youngins & still has a lot left in the tank. Kerr knows it & will def let Steph off the leash..just watch n see
People don't like LeBron? Are you sure about that? Maybe the people you know and a few other feminine men online who has LeBron living rent free in their heads.....if bron was hated so much why is he still #1/2 in all star voting every year? Why is his basketball jersey ( all the teams he's played for) still selling like hotcakes.....stop crying 😢
Bro Zach with Jokic guarana in the background.Dont go to soft in the first game against Serbia,it wont be easy as the friendly game,they played USA back to back days after Australia which Europe players are not used to it,also played without pretty much 3 starting 5 players.
@@beedebawng2556 How dumb are you to bring in Nike to this conversation? What does Nike have to do with Lebron James performing better than Steph Curry so far? Y'all are legitimately stupid
wemby got no clue yet how to play in the post vs small physical defenders. he has a defender like brooks on him and ALWAYS takes steps or dribbles out while or after catching the ball in the low post, just to try to take those guys of the dribble. he is far from dominating as long as he does not realize that he is the tallest dude on the court.
American media need to stop giving this team excuses on any given night they will have the 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th best players on the floor even if they play Serbia with the best player USA still have the next 10 best players it's laughable the excuses these anyasltys are giving us
They already setting up the excuses for Lebron since they building this thing around him . They don’t win it’s gonna be the other guys didn’t step up around him . Aka he didn’t have enough help . U can see it coming
I'm so tired of people overexaggerating Steph Currys greatness. He is the best shooter of all time in my opinion. But he is not a goat becuase I have never seen him have to carry a subpar team. Every year that Klay was injured, the warriors didn't even make the playoffs. Thats all I need to see to know that curry is a great player but doesnt make it on my top 20 player list. If you are talking about best careers, then curry is easily top 20 and probably top 15
Well if texas get one california and florida would want one too. New York doesn't like to sidelined so they will come knocking. Which would make New Jersey angry!! 😂😂😂
Bruh USA clearly isn’t playing fr 😂 the season is in 3 months , these mfs are not trying to get hurt .. they’re doing/playing just enough to bring home the gold but if they wanted to lock in & play like it’s the playoff then they could
Gotta love the lack of respect these ppl show the rest of the world's basketball infrastructure. Clowns, that's why the Dream Team stands alone, they respected their competition and dominated them all the same. This 'Supreme Team' doesn't show any respect to the competition, at least the media coverage surrounding them doesn't.
curry and kd are soft dancers, performers - we'll see how they do... and the whole team is put together from hero-ballers, lets see how much they can work together
