That would be a clusterfuck in the NBA

True, but it would be hilarious to have for one season just to watch it play out. 

[Firemans4Horn 18048]

Lillard has been so shit 

[Kermit 3156]

Fucking Lillard.

[OU Sucks 8813]

Great job not giving it to KD when he was open and France was trying to foul.

Watch out for the Lasso Special boys...

[Redneck Mutha 7954]

Fucking frogs.  If you'd shown this much fight 80 years ago, WWII woulda been over in '42.

[WBT 20564]

Damn, KD in gold medal games is like Ced was in 5A state championship games.

[Surly Bevo 24908]

KD says fuck yo couch

Everyone on planet Earth knew he was hitting both of those after Lillard's best choke attempt.

Couple of grandpa’s cousins would have survived.  Hits close to home.

America is golden again! We invented and we own the sport! Fuck France and the rest of the world! 

[BigOrange1 6436]

gold!

[Redneck Mutha 7954]

Boom.  We still rule.  Fuck France.

[ztejas 43419]

What a slap dick move by Lavine. You didn't do shit this entire run and you're gonna stunt like that? That deserves an apology. 

[Surly Bevo 24908]

Yea Rudy you should cry....you lost the fucking game.  Fucking douchebag

Congratulations to Team USA.  Maybe the ugliest path to gold, but Gold it is!!!!

I'm not sure I've seen another Olympics team lean so much on one player, but there were other contributions, namely Jrue's perimeter defense, Bam's energy, Tatum's sometimes Robin play, and Draymond's gamesmanship.  Oh...... and Fuck the Pop haters!  Fuck off.... only Spurs fans can bad mouth Pop.

Congrats to KD.  Olympics legend.

Dunking with no defenders around is what he’s good at.

Lillard had some big plays and effort tonight even though he bricked those 2 FTs late. 

Middleton wasn't great but he's coming off a pretty arduous Finals run. I'll give him a pass.

I'm cool with everyone but Lavine. Please never put a player like that on the roster again. We should have learned in 04. No defense, rocks for brains, superfluous scoring ability.

Steve Kerr

JVG (if he can create another miracle and coach 'replacements' to qualify for the FIBA championship again)

Whoever they get, get them a better team..... wholly hell, that was a terrible representation of USA basketball.  Colangelo needs to retire.

Nobody, roll him out there the next 5 Olympics, he'll still be the best.

[Kermit 3156]

Lavine’s dunk was after the buzzer. Fuck yeah Pop! Hell yes Keldon. 
 

KD is such a boss.

Still classless. This is the Olympics. This isn't Bulls/Pistons 1989. Sportsmanship has always been at the center of the games (or, it should have been, I guess the US and USSR got a little nasty for a bit).

Everybody opted out because of the compressed nature of the last 2 seasons and all of the injuries in the playoffs.

[BigOrange1 6436]

kerr seems like a logical successor. 

does kd play one final time in 2024?  he'll be 35, but being the only basketball player to win 4 gold medals has to be appealing.

[closetohumping 17440]

Well done !!

 

 

is this captain America nickname a thing?

The most decorated American basketball Olympian is an automatic selection if he wants to play. He'll likely have even a bigger role than Kobe did in the 2012 London Olympics at age 34 especially if the team continues to be poorly constructed.

KD plays in 24 and 28 if he wants to. No reason he shouldn’t get the 12th roster spot at 39 if he’s still playing. With what he did this year, and at FIBA in 2010 he should have a roster spot until he’s retired.

based on this current roster he’ll be asked to carry the load in 2024 as well. Lilliard and Booker can score 75 points against each other in one playoff game and then shit down their legs in the Olympics.

Give KD all the gold medals. 

[UDontKnow 10444]

I have been very critical of Popovich as Olympic Head Coach, but even I know better than to criticize after the man just coached the team to the gold medal. Come on Kendrick, stop it!

Pop’s too radioactive to care.
