    It makes sense. Embid is obviously still hurt and from his previous quotes and demeanor during the last game, he's cool with it.

    They have Embiid because international teams with good bigs own us in the paint. Im glad hes on the team. He wasnt needed for small ball S Sudan. Thats all. Sure he isnt playing great on offense but they dont need him for that. A good center playing good D is what we need.

    Kerr is playing the right combination of players. Some of these guys are superstars on their teams but when your team doesn’t need you to take 25 shots and score 30 points you have to contribute in different ways. Bam and AD are both better defensive fits and both of them are more mobile. They fit better than Embiid.

    Is the state of basketball this pathetic to where the USA is now winning games by 26 and 17 and now the manner in which it’s done is questioned? Yes it is.
    First , the complaint was that they beat Serbia and Canada pretty well but they are not still considered better than the dream team.
    Then , they win by 6, 1, and 4 to Australia , Sudan, and Germany which is not enough so the complaint is that they suck
    Now they win by 26 and 17 and the complaint is that all the players were not used. Complain, complain, complain. It’s not little league where everyone has to play 2 innings.

    Embiid doesn't look 100% but team USA needed some Biggs on the team. I also think Embiid wanted to be on the team Injured or not since he knew with group of players would be heavy favorites to win gold. Even the French fan base wasn't too happy that he chose to play for team USA. He just took the easier path to gold or better odds over playing for the French Embiid is 30 years old and by time the next Olympics come around he will be a lot older, and he is always injured and so there is no tell ing what shape he will be in at that time, so he might even be picked to be on team USA.
