The news fell during the first half of Game 1 between the Suns and the Clippers, and it is enough to give the basketball world a few scares. Kevin Durant, phenomenal in the Playoffs but defeated arms in hand against the Bucks, should therefore participate … in the Tokyo Olympics. And the odds of a loss for Team USA at the Olympics have just increased to 2000/1.
Bradley Beal, Jayson Tatum, Draymond Green will probably be on the trip, Devin Booker and Chris Paul may be if the Suns don’t push it to an NBA Final in 7, Damian Lillard and Stephen Curry could come and torment some Japanese logos, but there … we go – again – to the level up. There’s a 2019 loss to erase, a status of the best team in the world to recover. With whom ? Sit down, read, tremble:
BUT NAN KD WITH LILLARD TATUM AND COMPANY AT THE OJ ???????????????? https://t.co/ZvQmvffCTt

Kevin Durant, fairly unanimously recognized as the best striker (the best player?) On the planet could therefore come and overcome his frustration with a cruel elimination in Japan, just to relish the joys of victory. We recall in passing that Team USA will notably meet… France in the first round, and if KD joins Gregg Popovich’s squad, beating Team USA automatically goes from a huge challenge to a sweet utopia. KD played three competitions with Team USA. The world championships in 2010, in Turkey, during which he exploded in front of the globe, the London Games, in the heart of a Dream Team Bis which then included LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kobe Bryant, James Harden, Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook, Anthony Davis, lol and xptdr, and in 2016 in Rio. Twenty points per game each time, in less than thirty minutes of play each time because we are not there to tire, and therefore this domination obviously reported on the FIBA scale each time that KD put on the American tunic.
The agreement is found, our knees are shaking and they are probably not the only ones. We are talking about a guy that no human is able to defend, we are talking about a guy who has just experienced one of his most painful defeats in his career, we are talking about one of the best strikers in … history, which will therefore face French or Iranian defenders. We say what ? We say good luck, and we offer our condolences in advance to future victims.
