Both deserve a shot.

DDR is a former gold-medal Olympian in 2016 and White was involved in the 2018 World Cup and is part of the Team USA youth movement.

Covid will still be around during the summer time. I'm saying this because I'm not sure a lot of these guys would want to sacrifice their summer to deal with Covid protocols and playing a tight bubble like environment which the Olympics will probably be set up to be. When you factor this in then White and DDR have a good chance of making the team.

maybe white will rest his toes the remainder of the NBA season to be ready for tokyo

Should cut Kawhi in favor of DDR

Definitely this.

[DAF86]

But seriously. Isn't Pop that makes the cuts? He has to take at least DeMar. Fuck what everybody else says.

if USA wants gold they better get rid of them.

Murray should’ve made it over White, seeing as he’s better at every facet of the game and hasn’t mailed it in after a big paycheck.

Nah, just look at that list. Curry, Lillard, Irving, Paul...

Not trying to be rude but what has White done this year that makes him deserve a spot?

This is not his best year, but he was one of the few players who committed, showed up, and played for the World Cup in 2018 so he deserves some consideration for that.

DeRozan deserves it more than anybody. A more disrespected player doesn't exist in this league.

[TDMVPDPOY]

white should concentrate on his nba career instead of chasing gold medals

Totally agree with this. Silver's oversight on the ASG was just the exclamation point. It's true of the Spurs in general, though. Probably the most ignored dynasty in the history of sports.
