Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 4022377, member: 7511"] Joining this thread a little late. I wanted to make one comment about USA guard play. Going back to Rio in 2016, I felt that whenever Sue & DT were not on the court, USA offensive execution left a lot to be desired. Sue & DT are now 5 years older and clearly nearing the end of their extraordinary careers. At the same time, the younger guards in the W, with the possible exception of Loyd, have yet to step up as the next generation of US guards. Whatever happens during these Olympics, there will undoubtedly be a “changing of the guards” for USA basketball in 2024. It may well be that current players in the W, like Ionescu & Plum seize the opportunity. IMO, the next generation of USA guards wiill come from the remarkable younger generation that’s still in college. Specifically, I see the possibility of a starting USA backcourt of Paige & Clark in 2024. [/QUOTE]
