What an embarrassment of a man Embiid is ditching his country. First it was France because ofc he had more chances of a medal with Wemby, Gobert, et all. Now US smh. I can't believe they even take him. Lets say it loud, Embiid is not from the US, neither he is from France. He should be playing with Siakam for Cameroon and try to get a medal for his country.

agreed %. Just qualifying Cameroon for the Olympics would mean more then winning gold with the US. Cameroon has never qualified for an Olympics or a world cup. Is Siakam confirmed playing for Cameroon? I know we're only 2 games in the playoffs but so far, after Jokic, he is playing the best. Will he be able to take Cameroon past Montenegro and Latvia in the qualifying tournament?

As an American living in Indiana, not sure this roster will be the actual Olympic roster. Embid is hobbling on one leg, Leanord as well. We will see after the playoffs who actually can make it. Even as is, it's a bit long in the tooth and I could see a well prepared team beating Team USA. Canada, Serbia, and France will all think they can win too.

Heavy favorites to win it all by average of 25 pts margin. However, in one game you never know. The 2008 squad was even more formidable and yet Spain was very close to upset them . The game has evolved and in one game teams like Serbia , France, Canada or Germany for sure can bring a surprise. I think US wins it but the opening game vs Serbia will show the direction this tournament will go. Some of the stars are right now aging or injury prone and you never know.

Spanish team in that moment is the best team who play to USA team ever. I writing this as ex Yugoslavia country man. Spain has unbelievable team. Pau, Juan Carlos Navaro, Rudy Fernadez, Reyes, young Marc Gasol, other - great crew. Now all countries like Germany, Canada, Serbia, Franch have quality but this team of USA will bet them with + 20 point. Maybe Canada if Murray and Wiggins would be play make this difference low, but I am not sure. Embid is the main problem for everybody. He make 15 % of USA quality in this team.

Tatum should have an * when associated with that 2019 USA World Cup Team. He got injured in pool play in the first round and didn't play in the two games that the US lost. It might have been a different result if he played instead of having to rely on Harrison Barnes and Joe Harris as starters

Only if they start practicing as a team as early as possible. Remember, that many national teams have a set of players that have been playing together for years (and are used to FIBA rules). It is not 1992 anymore and the Olympics are not an All-Star game. But if team USA Basketball would put in the preparation work - i.e. practicing in a training camp for six weeks - then they would be hard to beat.
And the NBA might rigged their matchup with the Knicks to appease him. NBA giving him the MVP award last season was a foreshadowing to this. Team USA is really getting more desperate to gather all the help they can get.

We are not going to make a team, we are just making a bunch of good players just like how the US are doing for a long time.

The US needs Embiid more than France needs him. With Wemby, Rudy, Alex, Tidjy, Bilal and Batman, France’s defense with height and athleticism is already superpacked. Plus, who needs a multiple times in a single season injured tall ? only the weakest defense, like team US is. Now, not a single US born guy has been awarded the MVP since 5 years. And being an All Star means nothing nowadays, most of the voters are US citizens, and we all know they are biased and … now we know many of them are xenophobic.

the REAL team USA expect blowout games 😂
They aren't winning. To many ego's. Different type of game. Older group as well.
Bron plays zero defense and as much as I love steph his defense is lacking... who are they going to beat, this is like the allstar game lineup, they will score some points but outside of Durant they won't even attempt to guard anyone.

all balkan? you mean serbian with Doncic. Doncic is half serbian so if he wanted, he couldve played for serbia.
