Sue Bird and Carmelo Anthony talked about their experiences playing for team USA basketball in a recent episode of Melo’s podcast. Bird claimed that playing for team USA was the most uncomfortable basketball she’s ever played. Do you think the players’ on the men’s team feel the same way?

    That’s why KD is my GOAT. Need him to be the guy with the ball in his hands all game? Elite. Need him off ball while another ball dominant player has the ball in their hands? Elite. Need him off the bench to provide instant, efficient offense? Elite.

      He’s not there in terms of accolades or reputation, but I agree that he has a strong argument for best in terms of pure play.

          I mean to be in the GOAT conversation. You can’t really compare KD to MJ in terms of reputation/aura.

              Yeah, I can see how that would happen. I was just responding to that commenters first sentence.

                If we’re talking Olympic Team USA GOAT there’s an argument to be made

                  I don’t think there’s an argument. I think he should be undisputed
