10 days ago, the French basketball team played an anthology final against the “Avengers” of Team USA. Back in the United States for a big political meeting, Steve Kerr added another layer to the defeat of the Blues.

10 days already since the players of the French basketball team almost achieved the feat of a lifetime.

After a rather complicated start to the tournament, made in particular by major uncertainties in the game, Vincent Collet’s men took their responsibilities and changed their face against Canada then Germany, to offer themselves a dream final against Team USA.

And during this match for history, the Blues did not come far from an Olympic champion title.

Trailing by only 3 points with 3 minutes to go, victory was within reach… And then Stephen Curry woke up and reminded the whole world why he is considered the best shooter of all time.

Steve Kerr compares the Olympics to politics
While pride reigns in the French camp, in the United States, this victory represents a consecration for three of the greatest players in history, namely the Chief, LeBron James and Kevin Durant.

Moreover, during a political rally for Kamala Harris in Chicago, former Bulls player Steve Kerr launched into a comparison between this victory against the French team and the electoral match against Donald Trump:

The last time I was in a full room was in Paris. 10 days ago, 12 wonderful Americans joined forces to win Olympic gold. And the next day, I saw 12 other great players win gold, our American women from Team USA.

I can’t think of a better metaphor for our country than the way Team USA operated during the Olympic Games. We had players from all over the country, who train tirelessly.

They compete every day in the NBA but decided to join forces for the good of the country.

And when we won, the American flag went up to the ceiling of the hall, the anthem was played, the gold medal was placed around the necks of our players who had their hand on their heart… It was the proudest moment of my life. […] After the election results in November, we will be able to take the words of the great Stephen Curry and say to Donald Trump: “Night. Night.”

For Steve Kerr, Team USA should serve as an example to Americans for the next election.

He wants all citizens of the country, even those who fight ideologically on a daily basis, to put their differences aside to elect a candidate who works for unity and the good of all.

With that, he hopes the country will return to the top step of the podium.

Steve Kerr has always been politically engaged, particularly in terms of gun control in the country.

It is therefore not a surprise to see him at an important meeting and especially to see him take such clear positions.
