Obviously, its politics over common sense. The MVP and most consistent player in the most important games in the NBA not being on that roster is crazy. I hate the Celtics but in all honesty, that makes absolutely no sense.
THANK YOU BROTHER!!! This is exactly what I was thinking. If that’s the case Kawhi shouldn’t have been selected in the first place. Grant Hill is a sell out.
It's Isaiah Thomas all over again. Don't wait 20 years later. To reveal the true Did Michael Jordan wasn't going to play if Isaiah was on the team. You know a lot of politics goes into those things.
Politics is why American hoopers are not what it was and never will be again. Europeans run the NBA and will continue to this team will be lucky to reach a medal round
@@therealtonyt2538 This was such a dirty play by Nike and the Olympic staff. They could have picked several different players from the NBA but they picked his teammate. Discussing move.
You truly don't know basketball. Derrick White is a better defender than all of those players, a better playmaker than most of those players, and he is not ball dominant like many of those players. He is the best fit easily.
That’s all BS and politics, no way Jalen Brown shouldn’t be on that team! Lebron definitely shouldn’t be on that team; he’s old and he already has enough gold medals! Four letters NIKE!
Finally after six straight all black players for the Olympic teams , a Derrick White will fill the void of a white something like his name, much better fit
The problem is, they selected guys who do not deserve a spot to begin with Leonard should never have been flown out to begin with, LeBron is a has been and KD is nearly the same. Jaylen Brown should have been selected before all 3 of these guys.
I agree, put Jaylen Brown on the USA basketball team roster.And also put on the USA men's basketball team roster.Derek white put both of them on the team
Instead of getting an elite player with the similar play style as the player that withdrew, you go in a different direction, why? All that's said just calls into question why Leonard was selected in the 1st place?
He took that as a gift an opportunity. As coach dealing with all these wealthy elite superstar, they jumped on White like he going to be ok, whether he plays or not.
The Olympic team is too political. They are missing top players such as Jalen Brown, Brunson, Banchero, Pg 13, Maxey. Let the best players go and they are smart enough to adjust their roles
@17jehovah if derrick white wins 2-3 more titles with 2-3 more all defensive teams & an all-star or two (he was EXTREMELY close to being an all-star this year). Sarunas Marciulionis is in the HOF for essentially creating thr euro-step. There's guys in the HOF that averaged less than 5ppg.
@@wannabegolfin24-72 Widely considered one of the greatest international players, he was one of the first Europeans to become a regular in the National Basketball Association (NBA). That’s why he’s in the basketball hall of fame. Not because of a euro step 😂😂. Even with one all star and a couple defensive teams he ain’t making it bro. He was close to being a allstar in a year where multiple players were injured. Nobody is calling wiggins into the hof for his ring and 1 allstar game
I hope these guys navigate this well. They have been trying to put these guys against each other . Including the debate about Brown vs Tatum. Keep ya head up brothers especially Jaylen Brown!
Harry Douglas is right on the money. First Caitlin Clark and now Jaylen Brown, This is going back to haunt Men's and Women's Team USA costing Brown and Clark the Gold.
What G Hill said was BS! We just got the NBA superstars to agree on playing in the Olympics. No logic for taking a role player when Superstars want to play.
Please people have discernment and understanding they’re creating drama when there most likely isn’t any. They’re trying to break up this team because they’ve been in the playoffs and the finals the past 3-4 years or whatever they don’t wanna see them win anymore keep that in mind
@AndresMartinez-ue1wt You're telling me you would inform your current job to stop paying you right now for under performance and never coming in. When they insisted on paying amongst the highest in your current field and it's seasonal work. You're a damn liar 🤣 I don't care if you're an attorney or a McDonald's drive-thru worker. You're not retiring from that arrangement. This is his job and profession. He's not putting humans' lives in danger. You act as if his ethics are in question.
You all have to realize that it's bigger than basketball. When he won mvp, the first thing he said was, "I would like to thank the Most High." The only people who say that are our people knowing that we are Israelites.
JT and Drue Holiday should say something about this supposed to be a brother hood. DW should say no tell them ask JB first then of say no don't want to join than ask me. Now it going to be locker room problem when season starts.
It is racist to not add a black player to all black team for the six straight Olympics team and on top adding a player last name is white, it is such a travesty even though he is black, what is next adding a player last name green? Or gray or brown or silver like the NBA commissioner
Joel embiid - made of glass (also fouled out in 13 minutes) AD - also made of glass So why not them? Kawhi is 2 time finals mvp and 2 time DPOY. Dude is better than lebron but gets no respect in the media
Back in the day i ordered a Grant Hill Jersey....... but something wasn't right...I returned it for a Shaq jersey.... glad I did that.......Grant Hill thinks that the racist like him.....must be Creole
Jaylen Brown can fit on any team. So, I don’t buy that. I don’t have a problem with White getting a spot. But, I think Brown deserves a spot over Halliburton and Duke alum Devin Booker.
The same Jaylen that so many thought didn’t deserve conference finals OR finals mvp, but now are crying because Derrick White was picked? 😂 Kyrie, Trae, Brunson, Mitchell, PG, Ja Morant, Jimmy Butler, Demar Derozan, JJJ…. Hmm… who else
You're quite foolish, there's nothing to be proud of, d white is much inferior to Jaylen on offense and defense, Jaylen guarded the other team's best players and won ECFMP AND THE FMVP, he should've got that spot, he can't be proud of d white for getting the spot with politics
Gran Hill must hhink he Bellechick! No way Derrick White should be your 1st choice for the Olympic Team with Jalen Brown AND Kyrie on stanby. That crappy explanation about what they need, but everything that you said White brings to the table, Brown can do it better including defense. Major Snub!
BLACK PEOPLE N BLACK ATHLETES SHOULD STAND UP . THE FINAL MVP DIDN'T GET SELECTED FOR THE USA TEAM . WHY BECAUSE HE WILL EXPRESS HIMSELF. WOW WOW WOW REALLY PEOPLE.
This wasn’t an issue during the finals when it was coming out that Leonard might be dropping out due to injury, and White way back then was being considered for his replacement, not a peep from the media, Jalen Brown etc
@@HayastAnFedayi white was in the 48 player mix of names same with jalen brown and then cut the shortlist to 28 names and jalen brown was on there not derrick white! Also kawhi is a forward so naturally replace with a forward hence jalen brown but they got another guard like wtf

white dont mind coming off the bench its if brown come in is the starters in his position is willing too come off the bench because you would argue why not put him in the starting line up 😂😂😂😂😂😂
To not have the finals MVP at the olympics is crazy.
It’s not only crazy it’s bs
If Jaylen is being petty now he will be petty not getting his shots in the game .
He doesnt want to play for white coaches, hes a racist.
@@marcusreilly1011 no he wouldn't. He literally could be petty about Tatum's media love but he isn't

Stop with that white crap. White is a good player and should not be blamed for the stupid JB snub.

All lies. Fact is that nike owns the nba and ncaab and that grant hill is respected by nike and ESPN. NOT anyone who plays/ knows pro basketball
Kanye been said this
" Polytics Havs Nothing to Do With it "
He earned TF out that Olympic nod
Love G Hill. He is not keeping it 100. The proof is in the player that was replaced. Jaylen earned and deserves it more. Politics as usual
