A collection of G-League/overseas players beat Team USA (closing line up of K. Walker, D. Mitchell, H. Barnes, PJ Tucker and B. Lopez handily in a scrimmage just now to close USA practice. Great effort from the unheralded group.

I mean, do we really expect this lineup to strike fear in the heart of ... anyone?

Kemba Walker
Donovan Mitchell
PJ Tucker
Harrison Barnes
Brooke Lopez


On paper, that team should be absolute trash. It appears the paper is correct.

on paper they are still the heavy favorites. No one can match their depth or athletes

Yeah, I mean... sure.

When you compare it to a bunch of guys no one has ever heard of that are maybe lucky to have one or two recognizable names, then sure... they should be favorites.

But it needs to be said that this is a sorry excuse for an Olympic team, at least in terms of our past recent squads and even when compared to some of the better amateur teams we put out prior to '92.

This team is about as random and uninteresting as I've ever seen the US put out.

That is no shot at any of these guys on the team. I give them credit for going out there and representing the country, but this team not being very good would be unsurprising.

It's not an olympic team and no amateur team ever would beat them. Would be very shocking if they weren't any good. Not winning gold wouldn't be. They won't have a big game until the medal round. Turkey is the toughest team in their group. Will be a lot better by the time it means anything.

That team would be far from trash wtf

That team would be far from trash wtf

No Lebron or Kobe. Must be trash

Let's be honest. That lineup with a decent bench wouldn't even be a contender in the NBA.

Now compare that to the fact that they're representing the entire country in a world tournament.

What international team would be a contender in the NBA?
