There was a provision that allows the Olympic Committee to name a team to the Olympics which probably would've happened because Nike is a heavy contributor and advertiser on the Olympics and USA Basketball is really important to Nike, but nothing was for sure there. I hope Vince Carter drives to your house and dunks on you

Fun all star game. CP3 got greedy, took a few bad missed layups instead of passing to Dirk and didn't let Westbrook try for the record.

If Spain was a serious threat they wouldn't have lost to a French team missing some of their best players. The US was missing George, Love, and Durant. Spain got owned by Gobert. USA had Davis, Cousins, Drummond, and much better guards. If the US players cared more, they could have sent a better squad that would have beaten everyone by even more ridiculous margins.

Spacebump posted:Fun all star game. The Gasol Brothers had games they probably would rather not remember against France. But had they played like they played in the rest of the tournament, France probably would've lost and they probably would've been a threat to Team USA.
