Well, the current Nigerian team has 7 NBA players and several US NCAA players as well.

US won’t win the Gold. Two nations that are quickly getting very good at Basketball are France and Canada.
I actually watched some of the U-19 World Cup. The US barely beat France to get the Gold, but I’m really impressed with how these European teams are improving.
I said that in ten years, less than half of NBA players will be Americans.

Somehow, after the national anthem fiasco, I can’t bring myself to root for either the US Olympic Basketball team or the female soccer team.
I also hope every tranny wins the gold medal and ruin the women’s sports forever.

Gee, I wonder why I'm cheering for America to lose every event in the Olympics?

I’ll root against some usa teams this time. That’s a first for me.

” in ten years, less than half of NBA players will be Americans.”
Maybe that will mean that at least they won’t be anti-American. We can hope.

Yep, that’s how I take it. I’d rather watch EuroLeague than the NBA.
Eventually the best talent may eschew the NBA for Europe.

They’re certainly going to get an attitude adjustment when they find themselves getting replaced with foreign players.

Well, at least, since they lost, we did not have to witness the spectacle of them taking a knee at the anthem

U.S. coach Gregg Popovich said. “Give them credit.”
You don’t get to ‘give’ them anything, you condescending schmuck, they TOOK it.
