starting or just making?

[SOD 21]

Anthony Davis, Steph Curry and James Harden would be locks. I don't know about the others, I would have to think about it.

And in what world is Kobe Bryant making the A-Team today? Kobe is done playing in these type of events and even playing at that type of elite level.

anyone with a decent to good chance of making the roster

If all the american NBA players tried out for the team, Kobe would definitely be a lock just based on respect just like how kidd wasnt the best point guard on team usa before but was starting

Kobe Bryant has previously stated that he will no longer be participating in these type of events, so it is really a non-subject anyway.

But even if he had a desire to play, how is a player who is now 36 years old and coming off to quite severe injuries, arguably the worst injury a player can have an Achilles injury, play at this elite level given his age and mileage on his body?

I don't see it in any scenario.

Curry, Harden, and Davis.

Chris Paul
James Harden
Kevin Durant
Lebron James
Dwight Howard

Russell Westbrook
Steph Curry
Paul George
Carmelo Anthony
Anthony Davis

Kevin Love
Blake Griffin

IDK about Kobe since hes old and he already stated hes done
but if everyone was not hurt and playing i feel like this would be the squad

We've seen what Kidd could do after his athletecism went. Kobe doesn't have the decision making skills to survive being slow as shit.

Rose, Davis, Curry, maybe Irving. Thompson too, he might be the best 2-way SG in the game, and he's perfect for the Olympics/FIBA.

That 10 wouldn't even be fair.

Davis and Curry. I don't think Rose would make it. Red Black has documented Rose' play, and Irving has him beat.

Thompson is a good bet also.

Yep sure wouldnt, that team would str8 dominate
its like a damn dream team
I might switch one of the bigs for Klay Thompson, it think he fits well i just couldnt leave Harden or Curry off.
