That's enough. KD has multiple burners because he hates being trolled.
There was a time when Poop could adjust. Not anymore. Not without Tim holding his hand.

That's where KJ could come in. Pop could give KJ a role (he looked good) and then coach him hard (like Duncan). That might allow him to coach the other guys. Right now I think Pop is scared of his players. That's not his comfort zone.
Well, his players just lost their first two exhibition games so they deserve to be yelled at a bit now.
Good ol' ass chewing from Jerry Sloan 2.0 should really whip them into shape tbh
i agree and will add that the first dream team shouldn't be compared to any present day american team for several reasons. first, international compe ion was nowhere near what it is now. second, there will never be a team as stacked as those first few dream teams were. third, the NBA's decisions to create an offense friendly set of rules has players having to adopt to the international level of play. international players are more physical while NBA players are conditioned to look for calls when on offense and back off the opposing players when on defense. and one has to wonder about selecting players who are iso players and not generally used to passing the ball, another construct of the current NBA.
Nigeria looked nothing like it's past two incarnations which was the '12 and '16 team. 11 out of 12 of those kids on team Nigeria are US citizens that grew up in the US. Nigeria if anything got smarter with it's recruiting. Those kids would play on Team USA if they were considered but are second to third tier NBA talent so they ended up doing the second best thing which is playing for the country of their parents and family ancestry.
With that being said Pop should have still found a way to beat them.
Anything goes in the Olympics. Becky played for Russia.
Yes I know hence why the final part of my quote which you omitted which said "With that being said Pop should have still found a way to beat them."
You're 100% right about opponents efforts vs USAB. My issue is that our team doesn’t give a and act like they’re better. If that’s the case this is a ty team that was put together. The selection processed needs to be revamped.
If Pop yelled at these divas some of them would quit.
Good. Pop's not out there trying to build the next superteam or coddle egos. If they want to quit, get the out.
But if the US doesn't win gold, I don't want to hear a single one of them make excuses about how "we didn't play hard enough" or "Pop yelled at me"
pippen's comments about KD looking pretty on point at the moment.

Durant has to take some blame as supposed greatest NBA player in game right now. He has never won without stacked teams and time for Diva to man up.
So far, Pop is definitely there to coddle egos lmao. He literally wiped his lips off after talking about begging, getting on his knees, and giving a little sucky sucky to KD to join the squad. His tough guy act he pulls on Lonnie will definitely not be tried on a strong black player like Draymond, I’ll tell you that. He’s going to let Donkey scrub it up out there until donkey checks himself out.
daly went golfing with jordan in the midst of the pistons/bulls rivalry and the rumors that jordan and pippen had something to do with isaiah being left off the squad. of course these coaches are there to coddle egos.

You should use some more inflammatory words in your posts, tbh. I'm not sure your point is coming across
Pop should just stop tainting his legacy and just call it quits.
Durbetta got a little less hateable in the Bucks series when he actually stepped up without a stacked team and Kome level reffing.
But ya anyone who swallows the *Best Player in NBA* swill.......mission accomplished by ABC/Disney/NBA marketing shills.
June 2014.
I actually say Summer 2005 but know no way Spurs Inc would have pulled that off.
So sitting here before the game. This is going to be a punk job (strike that) a big win for Team USA.
much better ball movement so far and much better effort on the boards.
