It wasn't stronger than the Towns/Embiid/Wiggins team, the US has now lost 3 of the last 4 Hoop Summits
More skilled on the perimeter IMO and even bigger.
US still blowing teams out in FIBA where it counts.

depends on what that team needs. Kemba's a pretty good offensive point guard, not elite, but he's better than most.
I'm not critiquing the class it's the fact that Woods was made into a Rose/Westbrook level prospect off YouTube clips when he's not that level of player

Ya I have a feeling that in a decade Hoop Summit will be North America vs The WorldThat's true because the US produces more overall talent, the issue is that the World is now starting to produce top tier talent which it never really did before. I mean, the US got it's ass handed to it in the Rising Stars challenge too
It's really stupid, he should be a pick and pop/roll PF, instead of trying to be the next KD.

Dude is 15. It's literally impossible to tell what he is.
I followed Russell Westbrook when he was 5'11'' and getting recruited by Creighton his JR year. Woods is ahead of that as a 15 year old junior.
Nah, the 2013 World team had Embiid, Towns, Wiggins, Schroeder and Exum.
Those first 4 alone are just
in comparison to this years World Team. And the World is definitely catching up, there's a lot of top tier prospects coming from everywhere in the world now. It's the damn Global Game, just wait till them Brazilians pick it up next

Btw a friend of a friend to me that Jalen Brown has a 42-45 inch vertical and 38-40 in with no head start.
I dunno if it's true but the source is fairly reliable.
I'll try to get some more insider info if I can

Like I said, this team is much more skilled on the perimeter and bigger.
I'm not getting your point. The gap between the US and any individual country is still so vast that gauging the hoop summit (which doesn't construct good teams IMO) as a barometer of development is flimy.
For his senior year fam
Thats at least a year to two years and in some extreme cases three years younger than his top 100 2016 peers
The 2013 team is better than this one by far, nevermind the fact nobody on the perimeter from this years squad will be on Wiggins level. And they are only bigger because QI is 7'2", and even that is close since that 2013 World team had Embiid at 7'1", Towns 6'11", French dude at 6'11"
The Nike Hoop summit is the US vs the World and I'm talking about how the world has caught up and is producing top tier talent, how could you miss the point
In an all star game predicated on shooting, handling and passing.....Simmons and Murray are far better.

Because its not a very salient point
Oh the billions of people outside of America finally can field a competitive team in aggregate?
get the fukk outta here. kemba is a great guard
Didn't even say good..he said great
Bruh everybody knows Kemba walker is a backup in this league
No, they aren't better in any setting
You gonna mention shooting in the same sentence as Simmons too?

Considering the World couldn't put together competitive teams for the 6 years in a row that the US won, it actually is telling now that they are producing talent and are winning a competitive game.
