Even with the USA sending all of their top 7 players to the Olympics, they barely won the gold. Other countries have closed the gap so much in the last 15 years that the US men’s basketball team can no longer be called the Dream Team. Their new name should be The Famous 12 or something.

    You mean when I fell asleep and Luka + Embiid got traded to the Celtics for Luke Kornet and Jordan Walsh, that was real?

      Dam imagine if it was…though would you guys really want Embid on your squad.

      Luka i can kinda see work really well, but Embid would need to play off ball a lot more and he isnt the best at that (though could certainly learn and addapt like Luka did to Kyrie).

    The score won’t be as close if they actually play their best lineup the longest and spam LeBron/Steph pick and roll. Too bad the young players prefer to go iso instead of run set and play as team.
