J-ALL-DAY Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Was a ugly start to this run but they got it together when they needed to. KD got us three Olympic golds and a World gold. Let the new generation take over now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealMcCoy Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Just now, NYRaider said: He missed some FTs but overall his aggressiveness facing up/posting up and scoring was better than anything he did against the Clippers. USA won a close game with Durant dropping 29 points, lol. Yeah, US could've played better. If we had AD to match up with Gobert it would've been easier to just hold him to like 7-9 points max. We just lacked any real size/length. Gobert played solid though. Wouldn't say he was great though. France has a nice squad. Gonna be tougher when they have Wembanyama in 2024.

stl4life07 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 The best player in the world KD led USA to another gold medal. Congrats. Now let’s go sign the extension, get some rest this offseason, and next season let’s go lead the Nets to the NBA title. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 The trajectory of this team changed when Jrue joined the team. Let's not kid ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some dudes just know how to play the game to win. He's an unbelievable defender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I want James Harden to never win a championship. It's the fate he deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy Gobert scoring on face up attacks and on post ups against smaller players was encouraging to see after his abysmal Clippers series.

J-ALL-DAY Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Dame was great in that 4th quarter before missing those FTs. Still Dame Time when it matters the most! Every Olympics there are always a few players that take their game to another level. Really curious to see how Lavine looks next year, especially defensively. Booker is going to continue to grow his all around game. Maybe Bam gets better as well? Tatum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
