  1. If you want younger go with:
    Donovan Mitchell PG
    Devin Booker SG
    Jayson Tatum SF
    Anthony Davis PF
    Joel Embiid C
    Bench:
    Marcus Smart
    Ja Morant
    Zion Williamson
    Bam Adebayo
    Evan Mobley

  2. AD may not be as good as Embiid offensively, but his defense is so elite i think it puts him over Bam. A team with Steph, KD, and Devin Booker doesnt need more shooting, it needs defense at center.

  3. Arguably, that’s a starting five made of a point guard and four power forwards (based on their actual sizes, not what they like to play in the NBA). Good luck making that work in international play. 🤷‍♂️

  4. cant understand 4 the lyfe of me how LEscrubby ramone james is anywhere near this list. tube socks is also a farce. LEcoachkiller an sweat pants dont play defense. LEwetnap is 39 an washed up an dirty dish ragg have no business on this list. LEmedia LEshenanigans. 🙄🙄

  5. If Embid doesn’t play for team USA, we should have a 3 center rotation of Anthony Davis, Brook Lopez, and Miles Turner. We’ll be just fine with those 3

  6. You need ja morant and Zion with Anthony Edwards and Jaylen Brown throw in book kd and kawai and add any one else they will run everyone

  7. Boogie Cousins, KD , KL (the claw) , D Book , Lebron

    Jimmy B , Steph ,JT, Dame , AD

    That’s all Team USA need

  8. DENNIS SCHODER IS IN THE NBA… DENNIS SCHODER IS ON TEAM GERMANY.. LITERALLY A WORLD CHAMP IN THE NBA

  9. Curry, Edwards, Durant, Giannis, Embiid . Bench: Lebron, Lillard, Joker, AD, Booker, Butler, Luka. Nobody is beating that team ever.

  10. It’s a pipe dream but I’d do anything to see these 5 play together for Team USA

    PG – LeBron
    SG – Steph
    SF – KD
    PF – Kawhi
    C – Embiid

  11. PG Steph curry
    Sg Dame
    Sf. Bron
    Pw. Draymond
    C. Embid

    Booker
    Jimmy buckets
    Giannis
    KD
    Steven Adams
    Aaron Gordon

  12. US basketball is overrated. European teams are much better than what the media portrays. Olympics will prove my point again.

  13. We’ll is no easy when you don’t have a super team and What else is new Lebroom already talking to other players how about if they give other players an opportunity am sure US can do without Lefloop he’s old

  14. Just dream USA diva players, it's free 😂😅. You are all no match against Jokic and Bognadovic; Dennis and Wagners; Wenbanyama, Gobert, Embiid and Fournier, Wiggins, Shai, Dillon, Barrett, Murray, Powell, and Olynyk..Just dream US 😂😅..next year will be the most embarrassing moment in your bball history. Just continue being divas😅😂…

  15. Joel embid jaren Jackson jr miles turner are the best options for center in my opinion power forwards should be AD BAM and Evan mobley SF SHOULD BE BRON KD AND TATUM SG ARE DEVIN BOOKER/JIMMY BUTLER AND KLAY THOMPSON AND POINT GUARDS ARE STEPH DAME AND KYRIE

  16. Trippin.. PG-Steph,kyrie,dame
    SG- lavine,kawhi,booker
    SF -Lebron,KD
    PF -A.D, Randle, Tobias
    C – ** this I’m bringing back Dwight Howard

  17. Summers are important with the NBA grind. If I am making 40-50 mil per year. I don't play in the Olympics. A guy that does not have a Championship may want to play to win a Gold.

  18. How to forget the world cup whooping, avoid talking about the world championship immediately like it never happened

  19. Bam adebayo,Kevin Durant,Kyrie Irving,Tatum,LeBron,Devin Booker,AD.if I was to make a team😅😅😅.

  20. by the time they play for the gold medal only lebron will be left available rest will be injured specally AD

  21. European teams love to play against a USA Team whether it's Team A, B or C😂.I can see a great passion and determination on their faces… game faces at that;to compete, humilate and defeat against an All NBA USA Team! All through the past several Olympics and FIBA tournament, win or lose the Europeans plays a much better brand of basketball than USA!

  22. Steph Curry will be abused defensively just like what the Lithuanians did to Austin Reeves!

  23. It will be a shame to the USA Basketball to let Embiid play for the USA even though the world knows that he is not from there! It will be more honorable to get a home grown USA player!

  24. I will retain Anthony Edwards, Mikal Bridges and Austin Reaves then add veteran players to complete the roster
