its not luck, going to the Olympics is not a big deal for these players.
its a big deal for America to get the gold for bball

remember its just recently that they started winning after years of failing


thats why they had to invite kobe to play for the last two Olympics
one of the major reasons why they won

I totally agree with Freeze. Africans or people of color are quick to cry out when they are disadvantaged, buy remain silent when it's to their advantage.
Sometimes we even victimize ourselves of being discriminated against, even when no such thing is existing.
We must be fair to other races, too, just the way we expect them to be to us.

Hahahaha....hasn't he heard the saying "White men can't jump?"

I'm sure USA's Swim team will have only white men. Each sport has a race that specializes in it.

Black men do basketball, Marathons and Boxing

White men do Swimming, Golf and Rugby.

Indians do Cricket

Chinese do Gymnastics

Everybody is happy
Very good point from you. They see ability not race for victory

Exactly, kevin is the last hope for whites, I wish they never traded wiggins but we still need to work on out defense, coach lue must act fast.

Lakers been crazy since, they try to bring all the players to their team, cousins nsver worked for them, paul george never, they're still tryin to bring in K.D and whiteside. Just that I dont knw why players dont consider lakers even when they know that laker wld pay them well.

Pat riley would be so foolish to let whiteside leave, I keep saying it, if whiteside played in the playoffs against raptors in game 7, I know it wld have been cavs vs miami, whiteside really hlpd them this last season, how can tgey offer him under a million dollar for his great work. If he does not does to blazers, I think warriors wld take him

Lol. They still have Gordon Hayward, that's if he can learn how to play defence. And both Steve Adams (I believe he's still 21) and Chandler Parsons can always develop something mysterious to propel them to be superstars from somewhere. Hope from white Americans from the ghost of Jimmer Fredette. And don't forget Frank Kaminsky looooooooooooooooooool.

Cavs weren't that terrible defensively last season, apart from when K. Love was on the floor and Kyrie to an extent. They just never had the needed fluidity and ball movement during the season. And also, when you have three player who want the ball all the time and a J. R Smith who just wants to shoot anything - with one ball in 24 secs - there will always be problems. They found their grove in the playoffs with ball movement and shooting 3s and, I believe coach Lue would build on that. They just need one or two decent two-way pieces (if K. Love and J.R Smith leave) and they'd be alright.

I'm the ultimate Laker and I believe most players avoided the Lakeshow cos of Kobe. But we've got a decent young team now and with the addition of Ingram (I think he's the best player in the draft, he just needs to hit the gym), we've got a solid foundation. If we can get one superstar and a decent center that can give us double-double - we'd be alright. I don't think we'll get anyone next season, but if Durant leaves OKC - Westbrook is definitely coming home.

Have you seen the Wolves' team with the addition of Kris Dunn? That looks like a dynasty in the making if everything can pan out well. I'm jealous of them right now lol.

Pat Riley knows what he's doing. He doesn't want to overpay Whiteside. Yes, he's a great player and a double-double machine. But he isn't an elite defender and he has problems dealing with big athletic 4/5 who can play face-off with the ball on the ground and shoot. And also, offensively, he isn't that great. Not taking anything away from his elite rebounding and the way he protects the rim. At the end of the day, Pat Riley gave him an opportunity when no one else thought he's good enough for the NBA. So he owes Big Pat as well.

Like seriously, what's the correlation between casting a white guy to play a black icon and picking a team based on requisite talents that would give you the best chance of winning a competition? grin

A lot of you are re.tards and I think folks need to start doing selective breeding or some sort of eugenics in naij cos most of you aren't fit for purpose.

Anyone who watches and understands basketball would look at the team and understand why Coach K picked these players. There are no definitive game changers who can control the pace of the game and take over on this team, bar Durant to an extent - after LeBron, Wade, and Chris Paul opted out. And since European teams are the only ones who would give them the toughest tests and, European teams have tall players and they're also very good beyond the arc - he selected a team of players that can play defence on the perimeter and protect the rim.

Kevin Love and Gordon Hayward are the only two half-decent white American players and they both can't play defence, apart from the fact that aren't even better than anyone on this team (you can make an argument against Harrison Barnes, but Barnes plays defence). And picking either of them to play on a team like this one would make them a liability. Is that too difficult for you m0rons to understand?
Your comment here brings me to 1 of 2 conclusions:
1. You did not read my comment completely.
2. You read it, but you don't understand English.

I said he was being sarcastic. From the original tone, he was saying 'why are there no white people in the team' but he meant it as a joke to make fun of black people who are always complaining 'why are there no black people in this or that'. Then I proceeded to give examples:
---> For example, they used a white man to portray Michael Jackson in the movie as that was obviously the most competent move to make because Michael appeared white in his later years. Yet they were complaining about racism against blacks.
---> So, he made a similar ridiculous argument, by deciding to complain about the basketball team being all black when they are obviously the most competent. Pretending to complain about racism against whites.
SARCASM
Please if you are going to mention someone, and craft a long post with unnecessary basketball analysis and insults, please try and understand what that person was saying.

You and the obtuse and vacuous light-skinned gorilla are idi.ots. It's not their fault that white Americans can't play basketball. When Kevin Love was stuffing his stats at Timberwolves, he made the team. But his real talent is showing now and he isn't better than anyone on the team. What other white American player is decent enough, even with some hype, to make the team? David Lee? Gordon Hayward? Who?

Whoever gave this idi.ot a platform to seek attention based on spouting ignorant tripe everywhere deserves to be shot. There's no black player in US hockey team and I don't think they scream racism about it cos AAs don't play hockey. Even baseball has few US born black players these days cos most of them prefer basketball and American football. It has nothing to do with racism - no US born white player is good enough to make the team.


Clown but they were good enough to invent it?

Dont even talk about wiggins again, whenever I remember that, I go from a smiley face to a dull face real quick, like isnt this the klove of timberwolves that got for 30pts and 10rebs like its nothing, see the shiit he did in finals, now that GSW are trying to bring in KD, we better get rid of love quickly, else we wld be in a big trouble in the nxt finals


I still feel love isnt letting irving do his job well, if not for the concussion he had in game3, we wld have lost the game, tgank God he had it.
A 34yrs old jefferson was now defending like he his whiteside, and now that he has retired, you see why we need to work on kev.
Everyone's talking about wiggins now because of his numbers forgetting that k.love also had great stats before coming to cleveland.
I think Wiggins has been performing well because there has been little pressure on him in Minnesota.He wouldn't have had that opportunity in Cleveland where you have a ball-hog like kyrie and a dominant player like LeBron.

Lord. . . *facepalm*. . . this one is strong o
First of all, you throwing insults around doesn't add weight to what you're saying. You seem ridiculous. You're just embarrassing yourself. Because if you took time to actually understand what I'm saying, you'll realise that we are saying the same fucking thing.
Obviously, that black team is the best possible team the US could produce. So there's no racism there. That is what Freeze is trying to show people.
And I stated an example of how black people always cry racism for the tiniest things, such as using a white man to play Michael Jackson as an adult. As an adult vitiligo had changed his skin color to complete white. So if someone's going to act as him, it'd be logical to use a white man because thats the closest we can get to someone that looks like Michael. But some people were calling that racism.
Scenarios like that is what Freeze is trying to point out, saying 'racism racism, imagine if the reverse is the case (e.g the MJ case)'
He knows its not racist because those black basketballers are the best, he's only trying to show how stupid people look when they get worked up over little things which aren't racist.
I hope you now understand.

Yeah...nearly everyone regrets the Wiggins-love trade but I guess that was what LeBron wanted.He ain't got chill to wait on a talented rookie.
Dont underestimate Riley,he's so smart in the game.He's gone fix that team before October.
Whiteside is talented but gets injured a lot.

Wow, I think there has been more pressure on him, no.NBA team is as weak as you think, even the sixers aint as weak as we think, but saying there hasnt been more pressure on him, I really dnt understand, something about me is that if I got love for a player, I really follow every achievemnts he has, On November 7, 2015, he scored a game-high 31 points in a 102–93 overtime win over the Chicago Bulls, bulls are not a weak team, last year wgen cavs were even hotter, it took them 6games to to deafeat the bulls.

Two days later, he tied his career-high of 33 points in a 117–107 win over theAtlanta Hawks, marking the first time scoring back-to-back 30-point games in his career, hawks aint a weak team too.

On December 18, he recorded 32 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in a 99–95win over the Sacramento Kings, joining LeBron James , Kevin Durant and Tobias Harris as the only players 20 or younger to record at least 30 points, 10 boards nd five assists in a game since 2000.

On January 8, 2016, he scored a career-high 35 points in a loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, a whole cavs, he showed.cavs what they lost, that really got me angry again

I know cavs are even regretting they traded him, wiggins will definitely flow with kyrie too. LeBron being a dominat player doesnt mean wiggins wont grow too
