Let’s look at the 1992 USA Men’s Olympic team, the first time pros were allowed in Olympic competition. Notice what virtually everyone, except one guy, has in common?
That one guy though had a great collegiate career. Not sure if he’s comparable to a Clark, Alcindor or Maravich, but at the time Christian Laettner looked like he’d be able to hang with the absolute hoop icons that were his teammates.
Now, when all was said and done, he had a 13 year career in the NBA, and made an All-Star squad in 96/97, so nothing to sneeze at. But a far cry from making the entire roster complete with future HOFers (interestingly he was picked over future HOFers Shaquille O’Neal and Alonzo Mourning but that’s another discussion).
In other words, any pro suggesting that the jets be cooled on the Catlin Clark as a GOAT in the pros talk should not be shouted down as haterade rhetoric!
At the risk of whataboutism-yeah, Trump lies.
And the other guy says the inflation rate was 9 per cent when he took office.
