They should still be able to beat anyone. Their defense should be really solid w that roster.

Pretty cool those 4 Celtics get that extra time to bond

extra time to bond with pop

stay away from my guys

i know that this usa lineup doesnt have any top 10 talent, but is v deep with good role players. like kemba as your initiator, lots of guys who can be secondary creators, lots of outside shooter, stretchy big men.

xp jaylen will be a spur

theyve got good defensive players without much time to gel

not much shot creation

kemba can create his own, so can donovan, and dont forget last year's playoff mvp derrick white off the bench

Tatum can create a lot of long twos

yeahhh

u all r gonna be so sorry about being mean to jayson

im a jaydream believer, shut up

i will not sir

who the fuck is Royce White ?

Golden Gopher great

that doesn't answer the question

Royce White: one of the great MN prep ballers ever, went to the U of M with Tubby Smith, was weird and then stole a laptop from a dorm room. then went to Iowa State had one great session under Fred "The Mayor" Hoiberg, ended up on the Rockets (?) I think but then said he was afraid of flying and wanted to take buses to games, don't know where he's at now

really weird he was never a Wolf because he had that weirdo Wolves draft pick energy

he plays in the big 3 now. yeah says he had major anxiety about flying so would only bus and i dont think he ever played an NBA minute

he was the #1 overall pick in the Big 3!

honestly probably a big reason Hoiberg ever got a look as an NBA coach

White was a "bust" but because he was so open about his anxiety disorder there were a bunch of think-pieces when he was drafted that probably had some role in paving the way for other players with mental health issues to come forward in recent years - Kevin Love, DeRozan.

Now I remember him! Gopher Great wasn't enough to jog my memory

haha so this guy had words about Melo being blackballed or something and it blew up ? yeah talk about slow news day

yeah today is between this story and the one where everyone is mad at devin booker for stopping play at an open gym run cos he got double teamed...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0UuLnHSgeY

noah lol

I remember being really high on him and thought he’d fit right into the modern NBA as a point forward type

Yeah he is a cool player

those clippers schedule things are cool

it wasn't that long ago but feels like royce white would have stood a better chance as a 2019 draftee than a 2012 one.

the one year at Iowa State he balled like crazy

i feel like the "can't fly on airplanes" thing was going to be a hurdle no matter the year...

yeah that's gonna lead to some garbage fires

yeah not sure if that’s wise. he’s at his best in the sprawling aimlessness of talk radio and hot take shows.

hes done plenty of nba work i dont think it will be a big deal. he worked the finals this year iirc.
