Should be Kawhi Leonard but of course, he got injured.

Is Lebron playing for China this year?

Would be nice to see Zion out there

I would imagine the lineup would be flexible based on resting some guys do to condensed NBA schedule and based on matchup, but the depth chart would look something like:
Lillard/Holiday
Harden/Beal
Kevin Durant/Tatum/Booker/Middleton
Green/Love
Adebayo
With obviously multiple guys being able to play multiple positions (harden at PG, Booker at SG, Durant at PF, Green and Love at C, etc).

I thought I saw that Brook Lopez was #12

Weak. 1992 would wipe the floor with this team.

Personally I hope he does not make Team USA or get invited. But he will probably be the last spot if he wants it.

Not that I am aware of. 12 hasn't been announced yet.

I'm biased but Zion.
NBA players can't handle him.
Imagine a bunch of weaklings like the French trying to stop him

I definitely think it is Zion's spot if he's healthy and wants it.
I just really hope he doesn't want it.

Bam looks to be the only center.
Maybe add KAT? Or DeAndre Ayton.
Every other big man I can think of isn't from the states.

I'd rather him work on his game, conditioning, and general health in a controlled setting rather than be away and in the Olympics.
On top of that...there's no good at all that can come from him being around those guys. There are countless stories that are in the open about recruiting from the others stars during the Olympics. They will be in his ear constantly to get the frick out of town. Draymond in particular comes to mind.

You don't really need a lot of Centers in Olympic play. US has traditionally only taken 1.
Kevin Love and Draymond Green can easily play Center in most settings.

Well yea, that team was the best collection of stars ever. You can't exactly re-create that. The only team I think that comes close to the 92 team is the 08 one imo.
Also, it doesn't help that alot of the NBA's beat players have other home countries. Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, Luka. Gobert, Simmons.

And you know that.

Well hell, I didn't even know Ayton and KAT were from Caribbean countries.
I guess that proves my point even more. Most of the NBA'S current stats aren't home-grown at all. It would be impossible for us to truly field a team that could compete with 92.
