Team USA cuts could come tomorrow: Does dame make it?

Much better play by Lillard that go around.

 

Much better stint.

 

The ease with which Dame (and every other guard on team USA) is getting to the rim is crazy. Where does DOM rank-- their D is absolutely garbage.

 

Plumlee's time on USA should be done. There is no reason to take him over Cousins/Drummond.

 

Pretty sure Dame's getting the cut unless they decided to let Rose free. Tonight's performance does not help his chances.

 

Probably. Only reason he would stay is if their is any worry whatsoever in Rose and his knee.

 

It's just more miles he would be putting on those knees.

 

Curry isn't playing any time at the 1. The team wants the ball in Irving rose or Lillards hands. I think dame makes it for sure.


I'm starting to wonder if rose ends up not going

 

This was the game thread? Somebody start a real one for the next game, Friday at 4 pm PDT. I missed the game, but have this box score.

Lillard had the most minutes, but the worst stats. I'm voting that he gets cut.

 

After the last tune up game I think Dame will get cut but when the real competition starts, Rose will get badly injured and Dame will get recalled. I actually hope he gets cut and benefits from the long extended defensive USA camp of Thibbideau. I've noticed Dame had a poor first half and stepped up after halftime, just seems to be his game. He doesn't seem like an impact guy in 5 minutes stretches.
