Perk doing a great job to remind us he didn’t get any smarter over the summer 🤣
Komentar godine!!!
😂😂
Not defending his IQ, but his starting five is on point.
let me guess..no center?😂
Edit: It is a good lineup. just replace Tatum with Mikal and that is good to go..🎉
As a citizen of the world, I can confirm Perk is not a World Champion, not my World Champion, not our World Champion. This Bozo American can say whatever he wants but facts are facts.
Noah Lyles secretly creating dream team 2.0 by instigating the entire NBA is a legendary move
Not really
Lebron was already going to do it to add to his legacy!!
When did the NBA last use the term "world champions" on the nba championship caps?
LMAO that would be hilarious if Dream Team 2.0 just comes out and destroys the Olympics
@@104rr type in Google "NBA world champion cap"
@@jovandraganescu1406 so he can come closer to MJs legacy. I'd be happy for LeBron
Brian is so articulate. Presents well informed opinions and approaches a subject from different perspectives.
Brian is so fat. Consumes high calorie foods and leaves a little time between different meals.
I hate that people only associate him with LeBron but he definitely knows what he’s talking about
He's an actual journalist and not just a commentator.
Yeah and completely ignored the fact that we've won every Olympics where we send our best players or B teams....... "more athleticism", no its guys in the NBA with more SKILL in general than most in the world.. the Olympics (history' biggest international competition proves that)
But when he said nba significantly more entertaining, it showed how casual he is
I like what Brian said about some of the players taking pride in representing the USA despite the results, they should be proud to be there - which to me is what the world championships are all about. How the NBA reacted shows how elitist and snobbery they are and really do not understand the passion and love these other countries have for being part of something bigger than themselves.
People who believe they’re the best don’t focus on the “passion and love” of their competition lol. When it comes to winning that’s irrelevant tf 😂
Couldn't agree more, the way in which they have handled this and the NBA "World Champions" fiasco and losing this cup has been quite distasteful. The World Champion nonsense didn't bother me till the incessant whining insued defending what wasn;'t really true. That felt classless and disrespectful even though originally I didn't think much of the comment. This just nails that feeling a bit farther. Similar to NBA fans expectations of their teams I suppose
Knowing Americans attitude, they will look down these players coz they develop superiority complex and they are narcissists. Undoubtedly, these players should felt the honor that they represent USA but only for those Americans that's proud of them.
What are you talking about? We dominate the Olympics every time we send our best players ....
\
@@Dame-Dame-Dame they are proud after winning 16/19 gold medals (when sent actual good teams and tried) smh.... folks just hate on the NBA players because of their fameand money typical crab mentality
Perk said "Represenzation"😂
He got Perkinson’s disease.
Winning the NBA championship is a reward.
Representing your country and winning the World Cup or an Olympic medal is an honour.
Perfect expression!
Both are reward’s because you gotta earn a spot on a team & you gotta work to get that championship or medal & tbh it’s harder to win a NBA championship vs a gold medal simply because of the discrepancy in level of competition.. 7 of the last 8 Olympic gold medals belong to the USA playing in FIBA rules.. can you imagine what the USA will do to the rest of the world if FIBA decided to use the NBA style ??
@@carlgilmore-murry5789 what u mean harder? How is it harder when big name players can just work their way into championship teams? Remember lbj, durant? In international competition, u r locked in a team based on ur roots, nationality, no cheating their way into championships. That's the real world competition. Not with these teams, with these players that can cheat their way into championships just to build and chase their legacies. In nba, u got 4 chances in 4 years. In fiba world or olympics, u got only one chance every four years. It's just easier for usa to win internationally, the bigger stage, the world tourneys cus obviously talent wise, usa still has the best pool of talents of all the countries that compete. But not anymore, it's not easy anymore. These smaller countries are catching up fast. Also one thing to note, in nba if u became a champ, it's for the brand, the state, the players' legacy. In international if u win, it's for countries' pride and glory. For a patriot like me, i'd take the later any day, it's the bigger reward, u have the whole nation on ur back, and it will really show that we the best in the world.
@@carlgilmore-murry5789 I was just speaking generally, across ALL sports.
It's probably why Noah Lyles felt so strongly about the World Champions thing.
USA has the most talent in basketball. But saying that the NBA winners are World Champions is rigging the game and giving them an undeserved title because (almost only) "American" teams can win that.
There's an honour and pride in the international game that the NBA will never have.
To actually represent your family, heritage, your home, wear the national colours/flag, hear your national anthem, have YOUR whole country behind you, it's different.
@@whitefire06 You not wrong but here’s the thing: these other countries have leagues so guys can stay in their home countries & play.. I look at it like the worst NBA teams would stomp a lot of these national teams & if your competing in the best basketball league on Earth vs the best players from around the world you gotta beat the best that the world has to offer to be crowned a champion
What's sad is most of the USA players being named will either be over 35 years old or have an injury history - seems like the current USA pipeline in developing talent is falling behind against the world
Exactly
The USA hasn't had a single player drafted in the 2010's win NBA MVP.
Foreign born players drafted in the 2010's have won it 5 times.
Boozer and flagg
Id only have durant curry bron and AD. Everyone else gotta be prime or young. Tatum booker bam jjj brown dmitch turner/mobley and ja/fox.
@@coreyhansen9711who cares bots American players still dominate, who gave the nuggets most problems two Americans that played together for two weeks in Durant and book, who was in the finals American butler and adebayo, conference finals LeBron and ad, the guys we sent are young but there time will come, just like how wade Carmelo and LeBron lost riding the bench, besides if you know anything about anything you know the MVP is just a popularity contest for one of the top seeds very rarely does it mean best player in the world
It is just so hard for some Americans to admit that they lost
The new American team looks thin than the old nba players because the new players had many chances but they couldnt score
@@estelalopez3563I want a team of all-stars, Jayson Tatum, Devin Booker, Zion Williamson, Miles Turner, Stephen Curry.
Give Brandon Ingram another chance, he seemed like he really wanted to be there but whenever he missed a shot, which was a lot, he got really frustrated. That's up to the coaches to get him to calm down and stay focused, which they obviously didn't do.
People act like this is a brand new development.... 2019 was a pretty great team with Pop as a coach and lost. 2002, 2004 and 2006 were back to back to back tournaments the US didn't win. In 06 the s5 was as following: CP3, DWade, LeBron,Melo and Dwight Howard. On the bench (among others)Chris Bosh, Elton Brand and Joe Johnson. LeBron averaged over 30 in that NBA season and DWade won finals MVP. Melo was already a superstar and CP3 comfortably won rookie of the year. Greece had 0 NBA players and beat them. It took the avengers in 08 and 12 to win by like 8 points against Spain. International teams now have really good NBA players and elite talent in the Euroleague, which somehow still gets devalued by the US media and NBA fanbase. The fundamentals are much better over in Europe, even Kobe said that he benefited heavily from growing up in Italy. Watch the Video by Basketnews on this topic, he explains the terrible fundamentals by team USA. I think a superteam will win Gold, but it's not set in stone.
The 2004 team was not the team that qualified and that team was beating Argentina by 30 in the first half during qualifying. That was the first post 9/11 Olympics and the US team was receiving a lot of threats so the veterans backed out. They stayed in Turkey just prior to the Olympics for safety reasons and a bomb did go off at their hotel, although they had already left and were not there during the explosion. They were so shook up they lost their first game to Puerto Rico, they were heckled relentlessly by the Greek fans and eventually they lost to Argentina.
That’s the one team of NBA stars where I’m truly sympathetic to their circumstances and understand why it was so difficult for them to focus and compete.
@@goeast12Right that team didn't even stay in the Olympic village. After that loss we decided to Have this Grass Roots system where we send Our Select players to Tournaments like this and The Americas cup to gain experience to eventually Make the Olympic Roster . You seem to understand that. These other ppl are making a big deal over this loss as if its something new. If they look at Our Record in The Olympics they would see Colageno's System is working
🧠🙌
Problem is coach
@@carloscorona633Nah, Steve Kerr is a legit top 20 all-time coach and I think he'll just learn as they go. Gotta learn the rules to play the game efficiently.
I don’t see AD and/or Embiid being healthy enough to play in the Olympics! Size is always going to be a factor for us vs The World! 😢
Just need the best players to play team ball.
Embiid dont play for USA ,he from Africa
@@johnnyzli Watch the video. Embiid can play for the US or France since he has citizenship with both countries.
@@johnnyzlisomebody skipped the video, he’s a us citizen. Us has to recruit him
@@johnnyzlido your research on Citizenship kid
I agree that the NBA champions are world champion caliber team. But they don't represent a country. That's the big technicality that I can't really stress enough.
The bigger point is they don't want to compete for an actual World Championship because teams, the league players are scared to be exposed and there is no financial incentive for them to do so. So they just chicken out and try to make people believe they are "World Champs" ala WWE without playing any game.
The USA hasn't had a single player drafted in the 2010's win NBA MVP.
Foreign born players drafted in the 2010's have won it 5 times.
Last player drafted coming out the USA to win NBA MVP was Steph Curry in 2009.
Curry harden
@@megadriver23they was drafted in 09 I think but I’m pretty sure drose won’t it in the early 2010s
@@yahiaali4059d rose won it in 2011 but he was drafted in 2008.
Seeing Curry and Lebron playing together on USA in the Olympics would be so awesome.
Im just here laughing because why does it seem like they need all that to beat schroder and teis?
@@kiki42719because Dennis and Theis are there stars on their country. We didnt release Team USA Superstars yet. If you're that afraid that means you know how strong team USA, and yet theyre still playing their C roster which why the other country beat them
the duo *WE* deserve
@@kiki42719I don't think they want to beat them, I think they want to set an example
@@kiki42719 Because FIBA referees call the game differently. When Lebron walks down 1/2 the court he will get a travel called. When Curry throws himself on the ground to get a foul he will get one - a tech for flopping. The time when FIBA referees blew the whistle to stop the game so they could get a better photo with an NBA star are long gone
I think Kuzma clearly means the star-studded future Olympics team needs to have time players.
That was obvious to me
Team USA full of stars is more prone to loose in FIBA then a team you get together for some years with 2-3 stars and some really good role players. And you also need players that like to play defense. In the world cup you saw how teams attack bad defensive matchups. And that the USA would also have...
An actual team USA lineup still just wins on talent alone right now
@@bigtik5233 Nah, Dillon Brooks would nullify that talent and if they get Chris Boucher and Brandon Clarke to play, could handle AD. Get Jamal there and Wiggins too, its over
Yeah okay 🤣🤣🤣
But who's guarding K.D and Curry on those other teams?
@@ScottieDPOYY You hIgh?
Windhorst has the best argument/answer I've heard so far. International basketball (FIBA World Cup, Olympics) and the NBA are two TOTALLY DIFFERENT styles of play.
Why can't we just keep it true to the actual competitions and call it like it is: World Champions (when playing internationally with national teams) and NBA Champions (strictly based on the league)?
The more the US national teams lose, the more of an argument and justification the world has... and rightfully so!
Except the nba is a global game. The best talent from around the world is in the nba
5 German players are in the nba. Including Schroeder
Nba does not equal team usa
@@nydibsare you stupid?
All Top Sport leagues have players from all over the world but they never call themselves World Champions.
Pretty much every NBA player is a star player, when they're playing for a team outside the NBA.
That's a big part of most pro basketball players' careers.
Which is to say, this division between role players and star players is very situational.
The way I would assemble the roster, if I were the GM, is to start on the defensive end.
There's no reason a country with this much talent should have a single sub par defender on the court. The USA has guys that can do both defense and offense, those are always the best guys!
So, when assembling the roster, start with all the best defensive options, then if the offensive situation looks dire, make some adjustments.
No one in the NBA is bad. They are all very good. But there are levels of greatness. Steph, KD, Bron are on another level.
They did not destroy the competition in Tokyo also. Many of those games were competitive.
So? We still pulled away against France at the end, but then let up a bit and gave up some big points against Australia, and THEN they let KD do his thing.
We don't need better players, we need better chemistry. Bring these dudes back 💪🏿
Nah too guys play win automatically BRON curry KD dame etc 💯
Plus they will come back angry to prove a point
They still dont get it... thats why the young core was selected to play Fiba . But they need to sprinkle in some vets too.
Those FIBA guys are good but not super great and it showed a lot.
This will be a crime.
Embiid is the key. No one can guard him and he can guard any big. I find it funny that because of the off court drama, no one brings up Kyrie. International players don’t know what to do with guys like Kyrie or Zion if healthy
They hate kyrie thats why but kyrie should be a starter period
Jokic > Embild
@@trinityspike959it’s a USA team I don’t even think embiid qualifies and Jokic definitely doesn’t
Kyrie is from Oz
@@jbwolf4watch the vid, Embiid is eligible to play for US, Jokic isn’t.
I mean just look at other rosters previously, I don't think this roster did bad for what they had. Of course USA always expects to win gold but USA has had bigger and better players and still not gotten it. As they say, you don't win on paper
They didn't have enough size to guard the three point shooters or contest the cutter or get any rebounds. If they crashed the cutters, the 6'9" shooters hit threes. If they attacked the shooters, the cutters went for a dunk. If a shot was missed, we couldn't get the rebound and gave multiple shots. Very frustrating. Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart got abused. We should have played Banchero, Halliburton, Portis, Kessler and Ant. I don't think that combo got any minutes together.
Lol every highlight of go ahead field goals was with Haliburton leaving someone open,
Who should to play in Paris?
Bro I was like what???
The style works. We just need a real center Mitch Robinson make him the center that's defense rebounding and blocks everything we need
Malika, what's the latest update on KPJ?
👀
This is why I have nothing wrong to say about this years team. My problem is team USAB not putting the best team out there.
Also, there are so many players who could represent their heritage, while I do not blame them, it would be cool to see Joel play for Cameroon and other players play for their home nation.
Be amazing to see LeBron, kd, and steph all on the court at the same time in Paris would be amazing.🏀
I would love to See Steph finally put a USA jersey on.
@BarryBlockZay617 - Curry was on team USA, just at the fiba World Cup not the Olympics
@@nydibs that's what I mean he's never played in the Olympics...
Ideal starting 5: AD, Bron, KD, Kawhi, Steph
Bench: Book, Bam, Dame, Tatum, Dray
Good luck with Kawhi being healthy next year 😂
Play style in FIBA and NBA games are entirely different. That even Jaren Jackson Jr the NBA defensive player of the year looked like a defensive liability in FIBA games, that's how different these tournaments are.
No excuse yank..plz admit that the US is so sux,i mean americans are sucks in basketball nowadays if european players are not playing in NBA then NBA is completely dead
They lost cause they couldn't match the physicality like Windhorst was saying, but also because a few guys did not succeed in their roles, mainly Jaren Jackson who struggled to rebound and not foul, and Brandon Ingram who couldn't find his flow offensively and seemed to let his frustration affect his play.
Other Leagues don't have players from all over the world - very good point Perk!
Nice typo on the thumbnail, ESPN
it is so arrogant from the whole america public and media to expect THIS US team to win the world cup. they pretty much did a very good job with the time they had to prepair.
The rest of the world IS BALLIN. sometimes together for years
I think it’s pass the time in history that the USA can just throw a team together in a few months and expect to be the best in the world
Nah USA can still do that they just don’t know how to pick good players
@@R3Y1023facts breh 💯💯
When my man said, more excuses than a man going to jail, had me weak 😂
10:13 Brian definitely know the difference between NBA and World Basketball :D
FIBA rules are very different, I'm with the Nuggets but it'd be a challenge for sure.
Yeah… shorter 3s, shorter minutes, shorter fouls… it’s all different… and even Jokic struggling in fiba rules , he didn’t bring Serbia atleast QF last eurobasket with better roster… Serbia with lesser talent make it to the finals of World Cup… so totally different scenarios
@@robertotampioc7318Milutunov is better than Jokic,he is a behemot,that would hive AD or Bam big problems
Who should to play in Paris 👀
Who wouldn’t want to see these guys play together for possibly one last time?
Hey! I didn’t research on this one though but just a quick question, why Imbed’s name was included in france where in fact according to his speech after he won the MVP. he was discovered playing in cameron on Luc Mbah Moute basketball camp.
Because he has french citizenship, too. Cameroon has to advance through the qualification tournament in 2024 to make it to the Olympic games and it will not be an easy task. Of course it is his choice whether he wants to play and for which national team, but in my opinion if he were to play for any team it should be Cameroon to support basketball development in his birth country. USA or France don't need that.
@@LittleBigSharkey… yeah… Embiid should play for Cameroon… together with Siakam… they can be a good team in fiba… embiid should embrace his true roots in Cameroon
both of you were right bro. I would cheer for him and siakam if they do that
You would think that after 30 years since the Dream Team, the American basketball journalists would know that FIBA rules are different than the NBA. Apparently you'd be wrong.
Also I'll keep saying it. Embiid getting recruited by the US would be beyond pathetic and the team immediately becomes the laughing stock of the tournament.
That is all😊
Excellent comment. Plus, I cannot imagine Embiid being capable to endure playing at the olympic games after the full season's workload in the NBA.
Embiid and Zion Williamson are the two keys to me. It's just that Zion always gets hurt towards the playoffs and it's because he doesn't like it in NO, and I don't blame him. Too hot, too muggy, too humid, and too bad of a team for his talent.
Get a trade done to send him to my Knick and be with his old teammate in R.J. Barrett. That would work.
Also, I'd love to see Miles Turner in there.
As a warriors fan, I’m not sure I like the idea of Steph going to the Olympics at age 36! Every year he has left in his late-prime is precious!🙊 ❤
I concur.
Steph has an experience in World Cup, so don't worry about him. And the Olympic gold would be a really good plus for his legacy
Nah he has to get a gold medal I like it
@@marcosjuarez1490 He's only gonna end up playing 8 games at a most of 24 minutes per.
Less than 200 minutes of game action.
That's why you're a warriors fan you care about warriors more than the national team
Kuzma point is if edwards accept the role coming of the bench maybe the outcome would have been great.. EGO plays a big part of these young stars.
The way Olympic Melo embrace that role
If the US Olympic team would be form by 5 of the best NBA-Stars: They wouldn't win with garantuay. The simple reason is: European squads like world champion Germany, runner-up Serbia, Slovenia, France or Spain should be a little bit stronger in FIBA Basketball than a US Team 2024.
Germany had players that play in the nba
@@estelalopez3563True. the USA will come back with a stronger unit, it's just that we definitely need more speed and better perimeter and interior rim protectors. I've always liked Miles Turner's defense, but I don't know if he would be a good one for the Olympic style rules. Zion might fit in perfectly because he's physical and a bruiser.
If i was kd, i wouldnt do it. Last Olympics, people were hoping they were going to lose. Now that him playing will help lebron, they want him to play. Kd didnt have to ask for the top players either
Lebron knew Curry was going, so Lebron wanted to get carried
The NBA line days don't have Superstars like the dream team
Starting:
• Lebron
• Steph
• Kawhi
• KD
• AD
Backup:
• Dame
• PG13
• Jimmy
• Draymond
• Embiid
And then also even tho there are better players, I just want the team to be a reflection of the era so I would want:
• Harden
• Westbrook
How about a real team? The question is, have you learned your lesson or are you planning to just bring some older guys with more ego?
Do they think other countries won't prepare and do nothing in next Fiba? I hope they won't make excuses if the so called A Team player won't win any medal in next FIBA.
Perk: We don't lose.
Dennis Schroder: Hold my beer!
He plays in nba with American teams
KD, AD, Steph is a must for 2024.
Dang, you want all the D’s doncha?
Folks need to stop cappin...that lineup would've been dope 10 years ago but lookin for Lebron at 39, KD at 35/36 and Steph Curry at 36 to carry Team USA is wild cuz you got other olympic teams now with multiple NBA starters
Yep. Half of them do not even play defense any more. And that is way more important in FIBA. Plus AD is so injury prone...
What Kobe did it and it was awesome why wouldn't they want to age or not they are still some of the best athletes in the world
@@internationalreceipes yes i feel like with these players age and lack of defense, they will be exploited. Haven't we seen how fast a game is in fiba? Especially these european teams, the ball movement was quick, play transition was smooth. Even younger and fresher guys from team usa can't seem what to do defensively, they looked lost at times. I don't think these older players could have done better, but we'll see. They are still the best team on paper though. Always have been for usa, just can't get it done sometimes.

Keep Brian and send the rest of this crew to ESPN deportes.
Funny how everyone acting like LeBron has never lost in the Olympics before 😂😂😂
Nuggets is the best ball club in the world though it is not proven since they didn't win it against the Euroleague champs, clubs from Asia and Africa while Germany is the world champ since they won the World cup going against the best countries in the world
Agreed! The FIBA Basketball World Cup champion is still the Basketball World Champions, that is Germany. Germany will be replaced come 2027 FIBA Basketball World Cup in Qatar so Team US can prepare and get the Olympics Basketball medal, that doesnt matter. They are still not the World Champion in basketball. 🏆
@@user-hf8zv7qw4l Yup, I agree! The title of "world champions" is given to the winner of the FIBA Basketball World Cup. If Team USA wins the Olympics in 2024, their title would be "Olympic Gold Medalists"! 😂

Yeah but too small. FIBA doesn't play small ball. He'll get abused
If people think winning the NBA title is the same as capturing a world championship, then they are all kind of stupid. It is a national competition involving US teams. World championships or competitions always involve countries or athletes of different countries competing against each other at the international level. The English Premier League and La Liga, the top soccer leagues in the world, have more players from other countries playing in them. The champions of these leagues are not called : world champions. There is a tournament for that which is called FIFA World Cup where the winner is called the world champion. Argentina, which won the last tournament, is the current world best; the Champions League, a continental competition, which involves the best clubs in Europe, where the best players of every continent are playing in, the winner is not called World champion. The fact that the NBA is the best league in the world where some of the best players in the world are trading their talents does not make it a world competition. It is a national tournament or competition. It is the same for NFL or MLB or NHL and so on... It always sounds idiotic when you hear commentators or ignorant TH-camrs or people think winning a national contest is equated to a world championship. Noah Lyles is right in every aspect of his interview. People need to educate themselves like Stephen E. Smith did.
You can't compare any north american sport with soccer because soccer has like 50X the professional player pool of basketball. The NBA is far beyond any other basketball league in the world and who ever best team in the nba is, is also the best team in the world
In The NHL it's called the stanley cup champions
I mean, people can nit pick your words and call you stupid and ignorant also for referring to it as a national competition despite having a non U.S team.
If you disagree with something then just make an argument for your side, instead of throwing insults around like a 5 year old.
@banksfranks775 Regardless of the volume of players in the soccer league, the best players are playing in Europe. Champions League, which an international competition for European, the winner is not called the World champion or the cricket winner in the Indian cricket league does not call themselves world champion. Cricket in India is like NBA for Basketball in the states. We have a world champion in basketball now which is Germany, who beat the USA by the way and not Denver Nuggets. NBA is a domestic league and not an international league. FIBA us the world governing body for Basketball, the winner of its competition is called World champion. There is no proof that Denver Nuggets can beat the European league champion . You can make assumptions as you like, but until a club team of NBA faces a European counterpart , we are just speculating.
@@ranchosdelnorte That's your argument now?

How low has USA basketball stooped when they are desperate for a player from Cameroon to chose to represent the US over France
People want embiid to play in France but he’s not French
Baseball tournament finals champion is world series champions too
After this Olympics it's up to the new generation of NBA players of team USA to handle other teams on international basketball.
To me, although I am not from the US, ALL the guys that were there this year should have preference over the stars that decided a World Cup was not that important. The other guys that now want to go can fill up the rest of the roster spots if there is any, I just hate the nitpicking of tournaments when all these guys are allegedly so patriotic.
Cmon ESPN. "Who should to play in Paris? "
