Durant wouldn't let them lose like Kobe in 12. Tatum's performance alongside Dame has been very questionable.

kevin durant and jrue holiday if they was not on the team, they woulda been in trouble. kd kept getting timely buckets and jrue was clamping the key guard or swingman for these other countries. overall countries getting better but the usa still handled they business.

popovich was very shaky coaching the team overall, weird moves and strategy, bad rotations. needed to bench dame way earlier, his game just wasn't effective for international ball.

....
Congratulations
:blessed:
KD put them on his back

Not going to lie, I was really questioning him after those early losses. Happy they pulled it out. What can we change going into the next olympics so there aren't as many close calls?
Get the best players to go.

Looking at the team only KD is in the top 10 in the NBA a few more are top 20.

KD, Jrue and... you have to give Tatum his credit. He took some bad shots, but made some important ones. Especially when KD went to the bench, he was the one consistent scorer you could rely on.
