After savagely attacking Rudy Gobert, Draymond Green has found himself new victims. Indeed, the Warriors superstar has decided to attack the other teams of the 2024 Olympic Games by comparing them with Team USA.

There are only two games left to win for the nation that will become Olympic champion in this 2024 edition in Paris.

This year, we often talk about the most contested international competition in history. It must be said that basketball has probably never been so democratized on a global scale.

The fact remains that a big favorite still stands out, it is obviously Team USA.

Since the beginning of the tournament, the American selection has not been worried.

Always as spectacular, this team also brings together a very large number of people in the rooms. Draymond Green didn’t travel to France, neither to participate in the Olympics nor to attend them, but after his controversial statement about Rudy Gobert, he discussed the debate on the level of different countries in his podcast.

Draymond Green’s big statement on Team USA and other nations
When Usain Bolt was running, everyone was fighting for a silver or bronze medal, and it’s absolutely incredible.

When Usain was running, the most interesting thing in the race was whether he took it seriously enough to break the record, or who was going to come in second and third.

That’s kind of what we see in basketball these days.

We often hear that other countries are catching up with the United States, but that’s not the case at all.

In fact, it’s quite the opposite. In fact, it seems like the gap is getting wider and wider.

Team USA is even better, that’s the situation we’re in.

Draymond Green is clear: according to him, there is still a gulf between Uncle Sam’s country and the rest of the world.

Eliminated in the semi-finals of the last World Cup without even obtaining a single medal, Team USA chose to call its biggest superstars for the Paris Olympic Games.

For now, we can indeed see a significant gap with the other nations.

That being said, the 2017 DPOY may be exaggerating his statement by stating that the difference in level with the competition is only increasing.

The Americans are certainly much harder to beat when legends such as LeBron James, Kevin Durant or Stephen Curry are in the game.

It is also true that they have rather called up the superstars in the making in recent years. But recent international competitions also show us that the talent of other nations continues to grow over time.

If Draymond Green is to be believed, the opinion that the rest of the world is catching up to the United States in terms of basketball would be fallacious.

Team USA will therefore have an interest in winning the gold medal at the Olympics, at the risk of making the star center ridicule for his words.
