It’d be super weird to have an American rooting against Katie Ledecky or Michael Phelps in his heyday. Even though they both are as dominant, if not more, than USA basketball.What the hell does the USA being heavy favorites have to do with rooting for your own country? Are y'all ashamed and embarrassed that the US is good at basketball? Every country sends their best, if the US's collective best is better than the rest of the world I'm not sure why that would cause you to root against them. You would never see the fans of these other countries that are better than the US at soccer rooting for us because we're not as good and an underdog. Only Americans do this weird and goofy ish and like I said it only seems to happen with basketball, you never see people saying I hope the US swimmers get smoked by Australia and I'm sure that played a part in KD going off on "Americans" yesterday.
