3 on 3 may be part of next Olympics. Who would your dream team be for USA?

[pitman]

James, Curry, KD and Davis.

 

[CodeBreaker]

You can't double team in 3x3.

Curry would shoot over anyone from other countries.
KD easily owns 1v1
Davis too athletic for a big guy. Would dominate inside

Westbrook off the bench. No one stopping him

I said this on page 1. No chance any A list players do 3 on 3. It is more likely the US sends teams with 0 NBA players on them.

Why? Don't they want to own the 3x3 sport just like the Men's Basketball?
Serbia are dominating 3x3.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

Giannis is Greek.

That would be a pretty unfair lineup anyway. Replace Giannis with AD.

Because 3 on 3 isn't a real sport. Don't get me wrong, it is fun and all, but it is a gimmick. NBA stars will see it that way too.

First off, players would almost certainly not be able to pay on both teams. Second, USA basketball has enough trouble getting superstars to commit for 5 on5. They aren't doing it for 3 on 3.

Who is playing for Serbia? Probably 3 guys we never heard of.

Well, I started watching FIBA3x3 last 2015 and til now, I know those Serbian guys.
Still Dusan Bulut is the consensus best 3x3 player in the world.

Isn't it odd that the "BEST" player is not from USA?

He is the consensus best because our best guys don't play 3 on 3. I am betting it will stay that way too.
