    First JJ Redick and now Montrez harrel turning down team USA. When role players are turning you down that doesn't make Team USA look good.

    lol how'd that work out in 2002 and 2004. there's a reason why all the A list guys had to make a commitment again after that point

    g-league 2nd units wouldn't last very long

    I wouldn't be sure of that. It would definitely be a struggle. The World has caught up to the USA.

    Yeah, not a good look for Team USA, we just put little emphasis on the world cup which means people like Trez probably won't even be asked when the Olympics roll around.

    I guess the new format, making the tourney longer, has given some stars pause, especially if it is a tourney they've already won.

    Should still be a fun tourney though. Also, since Giannis hasn't pulled out (yet) it'll be great to see him and other International teams really go for it.

    How popular are the World Cup/championships now anyways?

    If its really just going to be big stars playing in the Olympics, not sure how this separate tournament survives.

    I think the main reason is due to it being pushed back, usually it would take place during August and there'd be about a week or so before camps and preseason.

    Even with them delaying the start of that it's still right on top of the season. I think if it were the Olympics it might not be so many opting out.

    Maybe.
