Building the perfect USA Basketball team for the 2024 Paris Olympics | YouTube Exclusive

Welcome to a numbers on the board YouTube exclusive you can put it on the board yes a couple days ago we got the pool of players that will be competing for roster spot on Team USA Team USA said we did not medal on our last one we

Not playing the big guns are out we got some of the best players in basketball competing and it’s only 12 spots for a long list of great players would not be included Dre M green is not included so let’s do this right the big guns is out

Uhhuh we need 12 people yeah mhm LeBron’s a lock LeBron is a lock LeBron lock Cur is a lock Steph Curry’s a lock Kevin Durant Kevin Durant’s a lock Curry I’m writing him down hold on hold hold let’s let’s slow let’s slow our road a

Little bit we got Braun we got Curry we who’s the next player y’all said KD KD KD Joel embiid is is representing Team USA aot Ka Leonard Kawai Leonard is on this list that’s five right there Tatum yeah lock it in that’s like all right there that’s our best players of the

League Damen lard is a lot as a secondary ball handler yeah Anthony Davis is a lock Anthony Davis as a backup IG as a lock I think you know they always Young Star it’s gonna be him or bam as the backup they always have that young star on the team

And I think that’s Paulo let’s slow our roll let’s Slow Roll let’s get the locks out way I thinking the same thing de let get our locks out way he’s still gonna be on the board hey there’s my bad my bad so are we the center’s position we

Have bam at an option and we basically have Anthony Davis as an option or jiren Jackson jiren Jackson is there kler is there going shomen is there is Davis okay Anthony Davis all right all right we have two Lakers starting are they gonna start cuz I see Jo on this team

Jo’s On okay are that are because I also see Deon Booker is on his list is Booker I thought was a lot because last time we saw him play for Team USA he really bought into his role as a defensive minded player he played it very well he

Seems like a guy that can mold his way to whatever Steve cerr really needs yeah see that so we can say that out bio Booker so right now 2 4 68 we have eight players with four spots left let him finish the Oh I thought I had said that

Before my bad eight players four spots left with a long list of amazing NBA players okay so you threw out bam out of bio on this 12-man roster how many bigs true bigs do we really need I want to wait to get to there because we have two

Already so that there’s no rush to get a third let’s just wait do we get like a a wing right now let look at the primary ball handlers that we have right now we have Steph Curry as the guard point guard we have no other point guard play

He can play both though we got Braun we also got Booker who also can handle some ball handling names that are still available yep Donovan Mitchell yep Damen Lillard Jimmy B’s on this list Hal still available are you talking about guards talking about guards people Hal bur

Harden Paul George dearon Fox there are some names on this list if Team USA don’t medal gold then they tripping bro this Jon is on his list we’re going to see all NBA players get completely harrie Irving is on this list yep and USA Kyrie be doing his thing he do so it

Is gr Hill making these decisions and I don’t envy that man at all cuz you’re gonna be you’re GNA cut very talented people man and I think when you talk about very talented Carrie’s at the top of the list and I think Carrie for me will probably be in that’s your guy you

Know what’s funny about Carrie what what does he in gr Hill have com they dookies oh T so the things that others might hold against Kyrie the dookie is a Brotherhood it’s like aund dookies on this list it’s a Brotherhood it’s a lot of they ain’t as talented as

Kyrie sorry Brandon inle can I make a case for somebody else that you didn’t mention as the guard who who Chris Paul Alice Caruso you talking like a specialist Alice when when the Warriors played against the Bulls last year Steve kerk grabbed Alice Caruso by the neck softly

And said I would love to have you a lot of people thought he was talking about trading for him but I also think part of this is Team USA man you on every Team USA team you need a couple players that are not the stars but like get in and do

All the right stuff D white is also on his list by the way D white would make before some like no funny stuff I was looking at the list of the players that all like invited whatever and I was thinking the same thing like they always be having that one spe like couple

Specialists I was like why dun Robinson somehow make it so he can come in and hit some threes for them hey they need specialist no there’s no way Duncan Robinson is making at is he even on the list on he was on the list you put in

There okay all right so the 20 let’s say the 2012 year their role players and this don’t even count he made an all NBA team once upon in the time Tyson Chandler you know Uncle Tyson I know his resume we haven’t even said Jimmy Butler we did say Jimmy Butler you just don’t

You be so thirsty to throw our names that be listening my bad let list lock let let me lock here let me lock here so maybe I’m stretching a little bit cuz every other team I’m we talking about the Olympics we’re not talking about feea games we talk about the Olympics um

These these rosters have all NBA players other than 2008 had Carlos Kyrie Irving get on the roster okay you locking and Kyrie too I I ain’t never turning down no Kyrie okay put him on now okay uh Carrie Irvin okay so we have two point guards in Steph Curry and Carrie Irvin

MH wings other guards we have Devin Booker locked in already then we got pretty much it like LeBron Tatum kawhai these are more three fours versus two3 so who is another two three or one two that can play that who well you said Anthony Edward for more like and Jaylen Brown Donan

Mitch Donovan Mitchell honestly I would put Donovan Mitchell are we voting Donovan yes we are I would put Donan is Anthony Al going to get snubbed off the list we get we’ll get there we’ll get there we’ll get there all right give us Donovan Mitchell so right now we have two spots two

Spots with a crazy amount of talent are we going third Center to say like a bam out of Bio are we going another big Wing like think when you watch other team I don’t if you have Anthony Anthony Davis I feel like bam and Anthony Davis bring similar things

Obviously I think Anthony Davis is a little bit more like talented offensively but I would think you you want something that could to have a little variance you know sounds like Paul George it could be the answer sounds like Paul George or Jimmy you getting Jimmy in this damn

Game from Derek he want Jimmy to play for Team USA I just like think about the names we potentially cutting right now uh we have people like Mel Bridges Jaylen Brown Jaylen Brunson but it it don’t it don’t hurt me as much because of the names that’s on here yeah it’s

Like they getting snub for alexo mean I’m sorry Mel but I think having one of those knows defensive guys will go a very long way though it might be true I see one I see one though who’s that I see Paul George and I see Aaron Gordon

Because Aaron Gordon is like what Mike is saying his variance he can play with Anthony Davis he could play with Joel he can maybe be a small ball five if you want to do that um so I don’t I don’t know I’m that’s not my case to make him

Because again he would be a guy that would have to get picked over a Drew holiday it’s very hard to do that so I don’t know but I agree with Mike guys who can do that’s why I like Paul George Paul George can play two 24

Um I feel like one of these last spots and D was mentioned earlier I think they’re going to give one of those to Paulo I like they usually like having one of those young guys that’s gonna they know that’s going to be there that experience for the next time yep yep but

I also like what KB said a guy like Derek white damn tell it’s gonna go along just having not even like Star players because every team needs role like people to play their role we just talked about Devin Booker embrac in that defensive role like you don’t it just

Don’t need to be no allstar game like you need structure is Booker on the team Booker is on the team Damen Lillard is not on his team he’s not on the team right now which just don’t feel right just don’t feel right and we lucky because Draymond Green is not on the

List but he would be a lock because he’s played for Team USA like three different times already that’s why I feel like Paul George is kind of a lock too I also feel Jimmy Jimmy Butler’s gold the Olympics before so maybe maybe it is Jimmy and PG as those extras but I feel

Like they don’t add enough variance PG for sure does Jimmy B we know what he’s bringing I think they seem is so talented though Olympic Jimmy’s kind of crazy too I think they still bust ass and I think Jimmy they can do that like that dirty work grit thing that y’all

Are well is Jimmy gonna do it Jimmy is so unpredictable you don’t know which version of him you gonna get he’s saying Olympic Jimmy are we getting Olympic Jimmy or is Jimmy just chilling the last Team USA we sent to the Olympics they ended up getting getting the gold in

2020 um this roster is not Kell Johnson was on here Zack LaVine I remember Zack LaVine being here like oh yeah he about to take that that next jump USA Java McGee has an Olympic gold medal shout out to jav isn’t this the KD team Jeremy

Grant yeah this is Kevin Durant like as the the guy and you know it’s funny because in that championship game they were like down 20 half and then they came out in the second half and they just went crazy man how let’s make these decisions are we saying Paul George I

Like Paul I like Paul George has my vote okay in the last spot do y’all go guard do you go Wing do you go big I think you I think you stay away from bigs you stay away from Big I’m going you have two bigs and you have LeBron James LeBron

James can play the five as well cuz you got to think about who we’re going against right we’re going against Team Canada we’re playing against team Germany give me another Wing because we also have Steph Curry Devin Booker Donovan Mitchell Kyrie Irv we don’t need a fifth car mhm so the

Wing the wings that we could pick from Pao benero Scotty Barn Mel Bridges Jimmy Butler who’s are we saying Jimmy got the experience it’s between Jimmy and poo if you ask me or Drew holiday that’s an easy decision if you if it’s between those two I know where my head is at you

Getting Paulo and that’s Jimmy I thought you I’m trying to gold man I I Ain I ain’t thinking about what could be in four years we just got destroyed in FEA we want to win the gold that’s because we we threw the Young Bucks out though they had jiren Jackson Jr playing fast

We still ended up fourth yeah give me Paul George and Jimmy Butler call it a day there’s no wrong answer on his last pick they’re going to go gold no matter if this that’s I was about to say it’s like Jimmy Butler really going to break

The like is he breaking the back for champ no they’re not where catching up they caught up to the young team they’re not catching up to Kevin Durant Steph Curry LeBron James in a one game elimination I I’m taking Team USA they are the heavy heavy favor every time

You’re taking them 100 out of 100 they’re not about to be winning by 40s every single game for sure I don’t know we ain’t seen they never have they never have went to the Olympics and just dominated by 304 this line8 2012 the line is different when

They went against Spain with Kobe LeBron Spain was in that game until the fourth quarter I think Spain was better then than they are now well they they had the gasar brother I sayain was but Canada and Germany these teams are really good Canada Canada’s gotten better and they

Look really good especially when we threw out last time Canada don’t want no problems with this current lineup anybody that can I’m saying is that it’s not it’s not as black and white as as it as we think because those teams have always played us well I agree and I

Think it ain’t as close as people think because they ain’t seen they haven’t played this this read that starting lineup again Steph Curry Kevin Durant LeBron James Joel embid and Tatum and Tatum [ __ ] out of here man we saw Kobe and brown were on the same team and they they ran through majority

Of the competition they ran through Maj to the gold and it was a game that’s what I’m saying the champ it should be it should that’s Al that’s what I’m saying is that it’s it’s not as big as a gap as we expect that’s what I’m saying

I and I think it is a gap I think they’re going to run through majority of the team and if you get a championship game that is good clap it up but they ran through the rest of it to me that’s not close if you run if we get a team

Between and silver one game if we if we see a team that sweeps three rounds in the playoffs uhhuh and then they go into the the the championship and they they went 4-2 I’m saying they ran through that that’s a run but I’m I’m saying in a one game elimination with the

Difference between a gold and the M are you picking against the you okay then don’t then okay what talking about you guys are trying to I you guys are trying to separate what is the gap between us uh USA and the rest of the teams he’s

Saying it’s a bigger Gap you saying it’s a smaller Gap that’s just the whole argument yall going back apples and oranges are they winning yes and I’ve never disputed that Bott and that’s the bottom line leave a like subscribe come back next Thursday for another YouTube exclusive boom numbers on the board

In this YouTube exclusive, The Numbers On The Board squad debate who they would select to represent Team USA in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
