    This is like when a group of good random high school players goes to the gym together and loses to a bunch of un-athletic 40 year olds who have great fundamentals and high basketball IQ

      Facts! Old guys in my Church League used to destroy us with fundamentals. You just gave me flashbacks.

    If team USA continue playing this way, people don’t want to watch NBA anymore.

      Doubtful. People have very short memories when it comes to the offseason.

    It’s just exhibition jeez they’re are just adjusting to the rules first. Let’s be honest you know Tatum and Durant gonna take over the game during Tokyo

    Couldn’t literally anyone come up with the dumb takes that Kendrick comes on with? What makes this guy special enough to keep having him back? He wasn’t even an all-star when he was in the league. His analysis is absolute garbage.

    Kendrick is unnecessary. Please stop inviting him on these shows. He’s not good at this.

    Why is no one talking about the fact that they are missing 3 players so no… No panic. Booker is big time. Jrue helps defensively and Middleton can catch fire at any moment.

    Most NBA players these days are entitled, spoiled, over paid, lazy, non-competitive, load managed bums.

    The fastest growing sport is MMA by far and that’s a fact but… Max Kellerman at his best.

    • Bert

      July 13, 2021 at 9:31 pm

      He said the fastest growing TEAM sport

    Wrong wrong wrong. Firstly, as Broussard said, its because the USA plays 1v1 bball, other countries play team ball.. I mean, even Stephen A talks like it’s an individual sport (blaming KD all the time)
    Also, Max is wrong with saying they’ve played together for years.
    All of these teams have half of their players comin from all over the world.
    There isn’t that much international bball that they can catch up and play together every year, so I don’t buy the “chemistry” factor…In fact these USA guys have played together more in all-star events etc than some of these nations have

    Coach Pop aint cut for this job, they need an experienced college coach to coach this team because FIBA’s dimensions and rules are almost identical to those of college basketball, that’s why Coach K has had more success in this competition than Coach Pop.

    This guy max really said basketball is the best sport (I love basketball but common, objectively it’s soccer and it ain’t even close)

    Team USA needs to gel together and sacrifice for each other. Turn good shots into great shots and turn up on defense.

  22. what chu talkin about
