Not playing JT is total disrespect. Even when team USA had double digit leads for most of the game. Common man. Man should at least close out each quarter with 3mins to go.
Point differential counts in this tournament. You gotta win by as much as you can. As someone earlier said the lead was smaller later in the game and got pushed up in the end.
Kerr is a clown! Playing Joel Embiid who's absolute garbage and not playing Tatum is diabolical. Haliburton the best play maker and assist machine on the bench is also wild.
Love the interview. It is all about the narrative. Jason Tatum gets no burn. The NBA is teaching you a lesson. Your boy Jaylen Brown speaks out we will show you.
He knows what he is doing. I think this will be the second coming of the Kobe - George Karl beef where Kobe took it personal when George Karl benched him the whole 4th qtr in the All Star Game.
Kerr is point shaving! He making some coin betting against those huge spreads. No person on this planet had both Booker and Holiday starting. It makes no sense when you also have Steph starting. You’re just wasting all that length and athleticism for nothing. I bet he’s up a couple tickets by now.
they took this competition seriously, no time to experiment, their plays revolve around Bron, Steph and KD.. JT is good but his time definitely will come
Nah, if you watched GS this year, Kerr complicates things and doesn’t recognize who’s hot. He goes with what he’s comfortable with hence why GS got handled and bounced in the play in

KD is a sharpshooter in his own right Curry is NOT needed in the lineup. White should have been on the bench along w) Embiid.Tatum NBA Championship should if have been starting. Play Haliburton in the 3quarter, then if Curry is needed you play him White on the bench
JT will drop 60pts when they face the warriors bec of this
😂
"Tatum and Haliburton have earned their spot on the court! No more benching, it's time to give them the playing minutes they deserve. Their talent and work ethic demand it.
There is no good reason he didnt play and Book did
Did u watch the game ?Book is the perfect FIBA guy he plays like 3 and D in this team and he embraces his role very well ..stop hating for nothing
@@renewilliamessomba2973
Did you?
Steve is clearly biased, why is Steph starting and why is he playing a point guard role?
He’s a spot up shooting guard at best with this style of basketball…especially at his old age.
Steve is being Steve…💀
Not playing JT is total disrespect. Even when team USA had double digit leads for most of the game. Common man. Man should at least close out each quarter with 3mins to go.
Bruh how you up by 20+ and not play everybody
Exactly
It was within 14 points with 3:30 to go in the 4th. Crazier things have happened in 3 minutes.
Lebron needs stats
Point differential counts in this tournament. You gotta win by as much as you can. As someone earlier said the lead was smaller later in the game and got pushed up in the end.
On that note wheres the complaints about Haliburton not playing?
Kerr is a clown! Playing Joel Embiid who's absolute garbage and not playing Tatum is diabolical. Haliburton the best play maker and assist machine on the bench is also wild.
I wouldn’t even talk to Steve Kerr no more if I was Tatum. Ima champion how you not play me?
I love how Brian Windhorst doesn't actually ask questions in an interview... He just makes speeches (esp. about how awesome LeBron is).
Coach knows what he coached at point with KD
Please cut down Lebron minutes and give them to Tatum
He is an idiot. He did it on purpose. Trying to get into Tatums head for next season
At this point, it doesn’t matter: just win the games. 💯
Very simple, Kerr doesn’t like Tatum for personal reasons and that’s that
Oh that's that is it? Good thing we have you around senior insider steph curran.
simpleton deduction
CAUSE Shannon and LeBron said so
Tatum sucks. White or Holiday is more valuable than him. People forget White is the reason why Celts won the series against the Heat .
@ronf.2029 LeBron sucks curry, kd ant more valuable then him. That sissy the reason Tatum and brown not playing
Meh not crazy but what is crazy is starting Joel blindly over and over again and not starting AD and Edwards
Tatum is 1st team All-NBA. And got no minutes. NBA needs tatum to play
First team NBA 3 years in a row and doesn't get into the game but non 1st team NBA guys played heavy minutes?????
That man knew exactly what he was doing idk why Steve Kerr is keeping this lie going you disrespected Tatum for absolutely no reason
Letting a Cameroonian play over an American is disrespectful and shameful, as if they needed more help.
Tatum will destroy the warriors next season 2 -0 in the reg season and win his 2nd ring!!!!
Love the interview. It is all about the narrative. Jason Tatum gets no burn. The NBA is teaching you a lesson. Your boy Jaylen Brown speaks out we will show you.
Why not go to Derrick white or jrue holiday and tell them that you basically embarrassed him on national tv
Dude get at curry or booker holiday is their best PG on the field are you scaling bananas or whut?
@@AKillu47 holiday is trash
I don't agree with Steve Kerr on this one because Steve Kerr could have gave him at least some time in the 1 minute or 2 minute range
Your not about to sit here and tell me Derrick White is better then Tatumn
Nobody did idiot
In defense well i agree.
Better "fit"
Same excuse they used for picking up White over JB
What goes around comes around, LeTatumBRICK Stan
lol
Derrick white was hustling and giving 100% out there. He knows his role and does it extremely well.
both players play a different position...so you can not compare.
He knows what he is doing. I think this will be the second coming of the Kobe - George Karl beef where Kobe took it personal when George Karl benched him the whole 4th qtr in the All Star Game.
He said he felt like an idiot that he didn’t play Tatum - he is exactly right. He was an idiot not to play one of the best players in the NBA.
Not one of the best players lol
@@MrShycity55 Only first team all nba that wasnt international bud
The Jaylen comments on prince Bronny had to do with it? 2:06 "He's a total pro" 😂
Coaching decisions like this will cost them the gold medal. keep it up Steve
It was a blowout. Great win over Serbia at that. Tell me what coaching decision are you speaking of exactly?
We don’t need him long as we have kd
@@oh_really8361 It wasnt a blowout until the 4th. And tell me when you have ever seen Booker play the 3
Oh stop it
@@oh_really8361 yea wait till they play tougher teams and you’ll see
I think they were gonna play Tatum the minutes Joel got, but because of Jokic, they gave the minutes to Joel this game.
Bench Joel play Tatum, don’t need that many center players anyway
Im a Sixers fan and I totally agree
It’s ok bro we won. Had we not win now then I’d have to agree with you wholeheartedly.
Kerr is point shaving! He making some coin betting against those huge spreads. No person on this planet had both Booker and Holiday starting. It makes no sense when you also have Steph starting. You’re just wasting all that length and athleticism for nothing. I bet he’s up a couple tickets by now.
they took this competition seriously, no time to experiment, their plays revolve around Bron, Steph and KD.. JT is good but his time definitely will come
hes an all star and a champ and u bench the guy?? pfffff, give me a break
ooo...cares everybody on the team is allstar and he is not the only champ on the team..
Not playing JT is crazy 😢
Kerr’s lineups were good and I honestly didn’t even think about it
Nah, if you watched GS this year, Kerr complicates things and doesn’t recognize who’s hot. He goes with what he’s comfortable with hence why GS got handled and bounced in the play in
Like dudes are really just hating fr , the rotations were solid
I mean any lineup with KD and this stacked roster will do well 😂
@@mallurypollard7815 That changes everything that was said. Thanks.
Good he started a bad lineup but the game flipped when he finally put KD and Bron on the floor together
there’s no explanation for this
EVERYONE SHOULD PLAY NO MATTER WHAT
LOL. This isn't Little League.
Not realistic
Disrupts the flow.
Really Dum comment, what about game dynamics, sizing, momentum, fouls, etc.
You can't force that, every match up matters
I was more surprised that Booker was starting especally with Curry and Holiday in the line up.
TATUM IS NOT THAT GUY. Everyone knows it. I’d rather have 40% KD
A Troll Typing Asine Semantics...
What happened last time Tatum and KD matched up?
Id take PG 13 over Tatum tbh
“Nowitzki” in the profile name so you know this is just a mad Mavs fan bro go cry more JT can’t hear you over that ring he just won!!
@@kingjay7148What happened the last time Tatum and Austin Reaves matched up??
Imagine using ONE regular season game as your barometer. lol
