How will this team do?

How will this team do?

>watching NBA Olympics hype commercial
>first name they say is Harrison Barnes
kek'd pretty hard

Terribly, they'll only win every game by 10 instead of 20.

>have American blacks
>other teams don't

Gee OP, I wonder.

why isn't paul george smiling
and melo too sort of

Real niggas don't smile in pictures

2004
>lebron
>duncan
>iverson
>carmelo

and they still lost to argentina

this will be a nightmare

Pretty much, the past two gold have been pretty cake walks. The players are pretty much in offseasom mode and just chillin, the Olympics are like a pickup game.

>Cousins
>Barnes

W-H-Y

Any guesses for the starting five?

lebron & carmelo were rookies
and that team didn't give a fuck
US basketball is prepared

>being this young

how the hell did harrison barnes get in the team

That team lost because it had too many superstars.

Iverson iso-ball doesn't work when the rest of the isn't a bunch of literal whos

Irving, Thompson, Anthony, Durant, Cousins?
Note international basketball is different so what works on the NBA won't necessarily work here

I doubt they're gonna start anybody over Green. Not because he's that good, but because they think he's that good

>no whites
this is racist and problematic

Experience plus scoring puts Anthony and Durant over Green
Remember the arc is closer in

>no whites
Klay thompson is squinting his eyes in his picture because he can see his own white ass reflection

...

Take another look at klay and tell me he's not white

>he thinks this team will win gold
lmao, who hyped for bronze again

This team is still way better than 2004. They had fucking Carlos Boozer and Stephon Marbury.

Just get the ball to Jimmy & KD & get the fuck out the way.

Gold!

>no lebron
>no wade
>kobe retired

unless Anthony and Durant play like mj a win isn't guaranteed

>the arc is closer in

lmao, seriously? Just pass the ball to Thompson every time and watch him get 40 points per game

Not sure. Let's wait to see if they don't get killed by police first.

Lose to Spain in the finals

>klay not playing for the bahamas

He's not

Not that much
Like halfway between college and NBA
But having a strong outside shooting game is important
Part of the reason the US struggled in 02 and 04 was the bad shooting

Despite absolute memes like DeFrozen, Lowry and Barnes you'll still walk it. Not even debatable

Spain really might win if Statpad Cousins is the only center the US has.

The Gasol brothers care more about this tournament than anything else. They know it's their best chance to finally get a gold medal.

>Klay and Buddy playing for Bahamas
>all those fucking 3s


they wouldn't medal but they would go down guns blazing

I wouldn't mind seeing Spain win just to end the stupid fucking Cousins meme once and for all

Lowry is actually pretty good, and great when his shot is falling. It's DeFrozen's insistance on going 8-27 every game that makes him look bad.

>Choosing personal interests over America
Get out you freedom hater
