Exactly! It’s no way around it! Political bullsh!t . I wish none of the great players for the 2028 Olympic team in protest to how they did Jaylen. Since the US can afford to leave off great players because they trying to “field the best team that fits” & field all players like the Derrick Whites & see what that does since it’s about the team & not the best players & see what that does for you.
Nike/Grant wanted to lead with its best players LBJ and KD. It's their last time playing in the Olympics, but you now have to recruit Jaylen, Jason, Kyrie and Paul
Yall need to stop with this nonsense d white plays defense an does a little bit of thing, brown is a offensive player an plays little defense same as Tatum, then nike has influencean brown has spoken against them do the fucking math
Facts I said the same s*** it makes no sense. Man was finals MVP, f*** how nike feels and browns offense makes up for a lot, he's not trash at defense either
@@kwasiwallace5604 Brown barely plays defense? You can’t be serious. You must didn’t watch the ECF or the Finals…White averaged 1 point 2 rebounds and barely saw playing time. How was he a better fit? So you leave Brown off the team for a guy you didn’t play anyway.
He would've EASILY won MVP over Lebum , one of the reasons why they kept brown out , was the fact that he's a magnet to individual awards , hell he already won 3 what's one more 😂🔥
Imagine JB getting double team all game knowing his left hand not that good. Plus decision making is not JB strong suit whatsoever. You people live in the moment that’s all you do. Last year when JT got hurt vs Miami game 7 what did JB do without JT oh get the break beat off them. Y’all never seen JB do anything without JT on the floor. JB never get the best defender.
Stop the cap Grant we all know you have no real power and Nike told you to keep Jaylen off the team. Tyrese Haliburton was a benched hype man the entire Olympic. Straight disrespected Jaylen and it showed because they could have really used his defense and athleticism! Nike in they feelings about Jaylen standing with Kyrie and their emotions almost cost the U.S a gold medal!
I think he is playing with words. Grant Hill already admitted to calling some people after the fact and now he is making it seem he gave them a heads up. But if you listen closely he said, “I called certain guys”. I called, “Paul George, I called Jaylen Brown…” He is not clearly saying that they are the ones he gave a heads up, just that he did give “someone” a heads up. And eventually he called them at some point as well.
I truly don’t think this was on Grant Hill. I believe whoever he answers to made this decision. In no world I’m picking Derrick White over a Finals MVP.
Jaylen Brown and Kyrie Irving should skip over Team USA since they were blackballed and, instead, play for someone else. I wouldn't mind them getting in touch with Palestine for citizenship and see if they can do something with that team.
Dame and Steph on this team would have been more of a liability defensively and with both being smaller guards. Teams kept putting Steph in the pick and roll a lot. Luckily the backline, especially with AD and Bam on the floor, was able to cover Steph. I could be wrong but maybe it could have worked also.
This reminds me of Isiah Thomas not called up to be part of the Original Dream Team of year 1992 to compete at the 1992 Summer Olympics games there in Barcelona, Spain back in those days. Up to now, so much are still being said as to why Isiah Thomas was not included in that Original Dream Team of the United States' Men's Basketball team of year 1992. Peace.
So he called these 3 guys prior to the original roster being put out, but when Kawhi stepped away y didn’t consider none of these 3men. They went in the opposite direction of the men they knew wanted to be on the team in the first go around. No disrespect to White he did a great job, but the optics and his explanation don’t add up to who was available and his ultimate choice.
JB was obviously pissed!!! They weren't in agreement. JB will be in absolute beast mode! GHill only succeeded in waking up a monster! GHill, this is fluff though. JB should have been on this team & JT should have gotten more minutes. Celtics are now even more of a problem. Thanks GHill...smh
These are issues for countries with so much talent 😂😂😂😂... You can't have everyone on the roster. If these players had been taken and the ones who went for the Olympics had been left out, some people would still not be happy...
Lmao Tabums personality makes him forgettable first off 😂 an second brown CLEARS ain't man OVERALL , lmao an booker an haliburton has no markability same with derrick white an jrue 😂 Lol special Ed alert 😁☝️
Profile? These are nice players but Brown is better than at least 4-5 players on that team and that includes Tatum! Dude is coming off Easter Conference Finals and Finals MVP and ya’ll can’t find a spot for him and then you have 3 of his teammates on the team? Straight disrespectful! This is worst than the Katlyn Clark snub! 🥴🥴🥴
He talked bad about Bronny.. talking about he's not a pro.... no way Leking James would let him play on that team.. even Tatum felt the consequences of those words.. he wasn't getting any play time
He CLEARS booker white holiday haliburton and Embiid , so you were saying 🤔 an Tabum was Suuuuuch a " Good fit " that he got benched not once but TWICE you were saying 🤔
Grant Hill you ain't fooling nobody with that b******* everybody and their mama knows that jaylen Brown should have been on that damn team

If I’m Brown I won’t consider the 2028 US Olympic Team! 🥴🥴🥴
But you aint him and never will be.
yeah i wouldnt want to have imposter syndrome and feel worse than everyone else sitting on the bench cause nothing he does would bring value 😂
He probably wouldn't be asked anyway

Then it’s a win win for everyone! 💪
@@Suremane 🥴🥴🥴🤣🤣🤣
Jalen Rose had a point about Duke players 😂
What did he say about Duke players?
@@dboogie81588 he felt Duke players were high fluent and political.
No way J Brown plays in the future. He strike me as a guy that stands on principles.
This doesn't explain shit.
exactly khawi pulls out and white is the natural replacement? Grant is a politician
Facts
Nike/Grant wanted to lead with its best players LBJ and KD. It's their last time playing in the Olympics, but you now have to recruit Jaylen, Jason, Kyrie and Paul
@@Anthony-ig5io Yeah, it's political. I wish Hill would just say that.
Actually no explanation is needed. The selected players got the job done. There’ll always be a next time.
You basically chose Derek White..which makes nooooooo sense
Yall need to stop with this nonsense d white plays defense an does a little bit of thing, brown is a offensive player an plays little defense same as Tatum, then nike has influencean brown has spoken against them do the fucking math
derek white is a better defender and has a better fit. he literally balled out and yall still complaining 😂
Facts I said the same s*** it makes no sense. Man was finals MVP, f*** how nike feels and browns offense makes up for a lot, he's not trash at defense either
@@nathan-qx2ep ummmmm..... We have two different definitions of ball out.

He would have definitely seen more playing time than Tatum! 💪
Freak around he would've ended up being mvp
@@Justtryin1
Facts!

@@TheDON914y’all need to stop living in the moment. I’m a Boston fan. In if you take JT off Boston JB doesn’t get them out round 1

FACTS ☝️ they all needed to team up against joker an they STILL almost failed
Somebody lying. PG said he didn't find out until he saw on social media players getting their jerseys
yeah mf YOURE lying. paul george LITERALLY said he regrets turning down grant hill when he was called (podcast episode with trae young)
Yup i do remember PG13 saying this on his podcast

Fixed 👍
@@TheDON914 typing too fast 😂
Grant is the perfect puppet
even though they won gold that team could have been a lot better but politics came into play
They would've won all of their games by 50 plus while going undefeated
Next Olympics, Jaylen brown on team usa but benched the entire Olympics
Man is tap dancing on quicksand smh
Jaylen Brown and Kyrie Irving should skip over Team USA since they were blackballed and, instead, play for someone else.
I wouldn't mind them getting in touch with Palestine for citizenship and see if they can do something with that team.
I agree. That’s a great idea. South Sudan would be great idea because they are 2 great NBA players away from a medal.
Do what with those teams? Lose?
Don’t go Jaylen….. they tried to carry you bro
What is he saying? Did someone not want Jaylen, or was it Nike 🤔
If i were Brown i'd never play for team USA ever. Same with Tatum. Channel your energies to other productive things.
😂 Leading with integrity did it for me.
Don’t wanna hear it!!
So it's totally up to Grant Hill who makes the team 😂
It's not his total decision fam...
@@louisdavis6432 well he talking like it is
Grant Hill had a awesome career but this was a dumb decision. Derek White over brown cmon man
Dumb indeed. White was taken to defend and shoot. What is he better at than Jaylen Brown? Defending and shooting.
And yet they still won gold so who cares
@@theBlackBearrrrExactly they would've with brown too , matter of fact 🤔 they would've won all their games by 40 to 50 plus while going undefeated.
@@TheDON914Nonsense even with Brown they would not come close to doing what the dream team did.
If people think Nike had something to do with this then why would they ever have Brown on a team. Nike will always be a big player.
If I'm Jaylen I'm working on my French citizenship from now. Play with me if you want
Ty someone finally said lillard.
Man if G Hill called JB and told him beforehand, and JB STILL went to the internet to bitch about it......he's lame for that
Grant covering for all Steve Kerr mess ups 👌🏾
And also Windhorst justified reasons 😅
JA, DAME, AND KYRIE SHOULD'VE BEEN OUT THERE
If Dame not on the 28 team idk what is wrong with the world
Dame and Steph on this team would have been more of a liability defensively and with both being smaller guards. Teams kept putting Steph in the pick and roll a lot. Luckily the backline, especially with AD and Bam on the floor, was able to cover Steph. I could be wrong but maybe it could have worked also.
He'll definitely be on the 2028 team tho.
If Dame is still playing. That man will be 38 in 2028 and he has a history of injuries
@@ahrensean that is facts , forgot how old he was already... We will see
Thanks for the reminder fam.
He's the best player in the NBA/🌎
Easily , an showed he can defend joker as a small gaurd
Sadly this may cause brown and tatum not to play in 2028. Tyrese and white barely played. You telling me brown couldn’t have been slot in??
Grant attatched to them strings boy #whosthepuppetmaster #nike
He didn’t answer the question at all😂

Nah...nobody buys that b.s
Jaylen Brown got duped. No way White should have been on that roster. Then Kerr screws Tatum in Paris. Conspiracy at it’s best
An Devin Booker OF ALL PEOPLE is on the team 🤔 even haliburton who hasn't even been in the league but 1 year 🤔 lmao Brown CLEARS everybody 🏆💍☘️
bring team usa tryouts back
Dame should have been on the team
Brown doesn't make the team cuz he want viewed as a glue guy and Tatum dnp cuz they thought he garbage
No left hand, still worst than Bronny. We don’t need this bum in the National team.
Send brown and tatum to us 3x3😊
NBA for Grant Hill talking BS! Get that collar off
"thats not a good explanation" he isnt required to explain shit. The USA team won gold. Period. Let it go. They won without him. Get over it.
Is that the fan equivalent of 'shut up and dribble'?😮😅
What happened to Grant & Fila ? 😂
As long as he starts wearing Nikes.
You got it wrong just say that
Has to approved by Grant's BJ buddy Lebron.
²5 yrs of trying toʻ hate dude .
This makes me hate him more .
Who ?
It must be said...I know that it's make-up and soft lenses, but Rachel is a midnight snack, y'all!
It's not hard. Jalen isn't marketable like a Edwards and Tatum. He pissed off Nike. It's all Politics
Lmao Tabums personality makes him forgettable first off 😂 an second brown CLEARS ain't man OVERALL , lmao an booker an haliburton has no markability same with derrick white an jrue 😂
Lol special Ed alert 😁☝️
He a fan he a fan he a fan 😂
He a fan he a fan he a fan 💀
Ok Brown was subbed, but why not Holmgren or Flagg instead of Drrek White?
Politics!...
Super Duper 🧢🪖👒
I don’t believe all of that
Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
We're not stupid.
