WHAT HAPPENED TO THE US AS IT ENDS UP MEDALLESS
by Bert A. Ramirez / September 11, 2023
Tumblr media

The United States basketball team, which was expected, as it always is, to take home the championship in this year’s FIBA World Cup no matter how its all-NBA aggrupation is configured, finished without a medal after being beaten by Canada 127-118 in overtime in their bronze-medal game to fall out of the podium for the second straight World Cup competition.
The Americans not only fell to a less loaded Germany in the semifinals but also ended up medalless by being unable to overcome a history-making Canadian team despite a miraculous three-pointer by Team USA’s Mikal Bridges with six-tenths of a second left that forced their game into overtime.
So what happened to the bastion of the sport, the game’s undisputed stronghold to fail to even get on the podium?  Simply saying that the rest of the world has caught up doesn’t tell the whole story.
First, the lack of time to play together has always given Team USA a problem.  Unlike European teams, for example, whose nucleus play together every summer for years on end even in the case of those who have commitments to professional leagues, including the NBA, the Americans can’t do that, resulting in a lack of chemistry inside the court.  Take note, “inside the court,” and not in the locker room as in the case of this US team whose players obviously liked each other.
Tumblr media

US coach Steve Kerr admitted to this problem but said there’s no clear solution to it.  "I'm not sure how you would do that," Kerr said.  "If you want to ask the same 10 guys to play every summer, I think that's very unrealistic.  I love being part of USA basketball.  I think our players really enjoy it as well.  And part of the deal is you pass the baton."
Jerry Colangelo, who was at the helm of the men’s basketball team as its managing director for 16 years until the 2021 Tokyo Olympics before Grant Hill took over, also wanted players to make a commitment similar to what their European counterparts do, even if for just a few years, but that apparently did not work out.
So what has happened is that in this FIBA World Cup, only the second-tier players were generally available as those who led Team USA to the gold medal in the last Olympics, like its top two scorers Kevin Durant and Jayson Tatum, apparently begged off.  This has got to stop if the US is to avoid a continuous slump in the FIBA World Cup.
 “This issue is the biggest challenge to American basketball supremacy since the Dream Team,” ESPN senior writer Brian Windhorst, who came over to Manila for the FIBA Worlds, said.  “It isn't a new problem, but it's a real one.  And unless the US brings its premium and older perimeter talent –Stephen Curry hasn't played for Team USA since 2010, LeBron James hasn't since 2012, Kevin Durant has skipped the past two World Cups -- the burden to overcome this challenge is getting higher.”
Corollary to this issue is also the quality of big men the US has been able to present against opposing teams.  In this tournament, the American bigs were clearly outmanned by their counterparts.  In their games against Montenegro, Lithuania and Germany, for example, the Americans were “outsized,” in the words of Windhorst, inside, giving up 53 offensive rebounds and 64 second-chance points.  No wonder Team USA had to come from behind a double-figure deficit against the Montenegrins before winning by 12 points and lost to both Lithuania and Germany.
Illustrating the disparity in play between the US bigs and those of their counterparts is that crucial semifinal game against the eventual champion Germans, where Daniel Theis had a total of 21 points and five rebounds against the combined 13 points and five rebounds of Team USA’s Jaren Jackson Jr. and Bobby Portis Jr.
Jackson is the reigning Defensive Player of the Year in the NBA and Paolo Banchero, this year’s Rookie of the Year, is no wimp either but it’s obvious they still need a lot of seasoning in order to measure up, nay, overpower their European rivals, particularly as the defense in the international game has become more physical compared to the NBA where the no-hand-check rule has turned the league into what some say is a “soft” league.
Still, there are some who’re saying that Team USA’s All-Star coaching team of Kerr, Erik Spoelstra and Tyronne Lue might not have maximized their lineup enough to get the most of the team.  Kevin O’Connor, for one, said that seven-foot Walker Kessler, the No. 4 shot blocker in the NBA with 2.3 per game as a rookie with the Utah Jazz, did not get enough floor burn, averaging just eight minutes of playing time throughout the competition.
“Not playing Walker Kessler was a massive mistake by Team USA,’ O’Connor said.  “Kessler is an elite rim protector and rebounder, and we saw all season in Memphis how Jaren Jackson was way better at the ‘four’ next to Steven Adams.  Things would’ve slotted better into place with this lineup.”
Of course, the presence of Bam Adebayo of Miami and Brook Lopez of Milwaukee, to name just two, would have made a big difference for the US at the power slots.
But polishing things up at the seams might also do just so much considering the way European teams play nowadays, utilizing a system of good, precise ballhandling as well as player and ball movement to go with a combination of defenses that can stymie the one-on-one style NBA players are fond of.  And that can only be made possible for the Americans if they – both players and officials alike – come together to commit to a program that will make such a system and style of play possible, which means spending the time that their rivals do every offseason. 
Tumblr media

Bottomline: The Americans may still be the best players in the world but short of overpowering opponents with an All-NBA Team lineup (which is different from a mere all-NBA squad), there’s no realistic way for them to consistently dominate anymore except through such a system that gives more premium to precision and teamwork.
As Kerr himself said, “The game has been globalized for the last 30 years or so, and you know, these games are difficult.  This is not 1992 anymore.  So players are better all over the world, teams are better, and it’s not easy to win a World Cup or the Olympic games.”

Isaac Bonga (German, Basketball player):
Tumblr media
Since a person in my inbox was unbelievably shocked by the fact that not all German athletes are called “Hans-Jürgen Müller” and have blond hair & blue eyes, you will now unfortunately get spammed by a list of some awesome German athletes. Bc I’m simply not having this attitude on here 😇.

20 Aralık 2023 Bayern Münih Anadolu Efes Maçı
*BMW Park'ta saat 22:30'da başlayacak olan Turkish Airlines EuroLeague Normal Sezon 15. maçı. İnişli çıkışlı grafiğimiz sürüyor ve play-in potasını takip etmek adına önemli bir viraj. Kalitemiz ve geçmişimiz bize galibiyet yakışır ancak diyor. Saha da karşılığını verebiliriz umarım. Başarılar diliyoruz temsilcimize.
*S Sport Plus'tan naklen yayınlanacak olan maç.
*Fenerbahçe Beko - Zalgiris Kaunas maçının son bölümünün çakışması sebebiyle ilk periyodun bitimine 3:33 kalmasından itibaren S Sport 2'den de tam yayınlanmaya başlayan maç.
*İlk periyodu Bayern 20-17 ile önde bitirdi. Fena başlamamıştık aslında ama 12-8'den sonra Bayern'in 11 sayılık serisi geldi. Son anlarda kıpırdadık neyse ki. Yakın takipteyiz.
*İlk yarıyı 50-41 yenik kapatıyoruz. Alman ekibinden 30-24'lük periyot oyunu geldi ve hep üstün oynadılar. Bir ara 12 sayıya kadar çıktı fark. Efes'in sonrasında 6 sayılık reaksiyonu geldi. İçeriye de üçlük yiyerek gittik. Beklediğimizin ötesinde bir zorluk seviyesi oluyor.
*Üçüncü çeyreğin ardından 71-59 oldu. İşler iyice sarpa sarıyor. Bir türlü giremedik. 71-51'i gördüler ama çeyreğe 8 sayılık seriyle nokta koyduk. Fark 12. Bari buradan bir uyanış gelsin son şansımızda.
*86-71 kaybettiğimiz maç. 12-10'dan sonra bir daha hiç üstünlük göremedik. Kötü geceyi geride bırakıyoruz. 8. yenilgimiz geldi ve tabloda Bayern ile eşitlendik. Hesapta olmayan bir sonuç daha. Bayern Münih'te Andreas Obst 17, Isaac Bonga 15 sayı gönderdi. Anadolu Efes'te ise Daniel Oturu 19, Darius Thompson ve Mike Daum 13'er sayı attı.

Lakers Acquire Isaac Bonga In 2018 Draft Deal with Philadelphia
Tumblr media
On July 6th, 2018, the Philadelphia 76ers traded the draft rights of Isaac Bonga to the Los Angeles Lakers for cash considerations and a 2019 second round draft pick (Bruno Fernando).
There aren’t many playmakers at the height of 6-foot-8. Those players always draw intrigue around the NBA. Isaac Bonga fit that profile as he entered the 2018 draft. The German-born Bonga played for the Skyliners Frankfurt of the Basketball Bundesliga during the 2017-18 season. 
At 6-foot-8 with a seven-foot wingspan, Bonga had the ability to pass and handle the ball. The combination of skill and physical gifts made Bonga one of the more intriguing prospects. Still, he was a raw prospect with an iffy jumpshot and average athleticism.
After Lakers international scouts Antonio Maceiras and Can Pelister had notified Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka and assistant general manager Jesse Buss about Bonga, Pelinka and Buss went overseas to scout Bonga. The Lakers made Bonga their top target in the second round, scheduling a private workout with the point forward at the Lakers’ El Segundo practice facility in late May.
Many teams had expected Bonga to be a draft and stash player, meaning that he would spend a couple of years overseas before playing in the NBA. The Lakers had different plans, acquiring him by dealing a valuable second rounder — originally from the Chicago Bulls — to the Philadelphia 76ers to take Bonga. In the deal, the Lakers also sent the 76ers $1.5 million in cash considerations.
Soon after acquiring Bonga, the Lakers signed the forward to a three-year, $4.08 million deal. Bonga played in 2018 Summer League with the Lakers in Las Vegas. He put up 2.1 PPG, 1.0 RPG and 0.6 APG in 9.0 MPG.
Bonga saw little time with the Lakers, spending much of the 2018-19 season with their G-League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers. In the G-League, Bonga showed flashes of his potential. He appeared in 31 games with South Bay and managed 11.9 PPG, 6.2 RPG, 2.5 APG, 1.2 SPG and 1.1 BPG in 28.0 MPG. Bonga played in 22 games for Los Angeles and posted 0.9 PPG, 1.1 RPG and 0.7 APG in 5.5 MPG.
The Lakers had a decent start in LeBron James’ first season with the team. Los Angeles began the year 18-11. A groin injury to James and chemistry issues created by constant trade rumors involving New Orleans Pelicans All-Star Anthony Davis caused the Lakers to go 19-34 over the final 53 games and miss the playoffs.
Bonga, Jemerrio Jones and Wagner were dealt by the Lakers to the Washington Wizards in a three-team trade with the New Orleans Pelicans that also involved Brandon Ingram and Anthony Davis. Los Angeles had to get rid of the salaries of the three players to create more cap space to build around James and Davis.
The Sixers used the 2019 second rounder (34th overall) they acquired from the Lakers on center Bruno Fernando from Maryland. They subsequently dealt Fernando’s draft rights to the Atlanta Hawks for the draft rights to the 57th pick, Jordan Bone, and two future second round picks in 2020 and 2023.
Isaac Bonga on how Lakers president Magic Johnson wants him to play point guard (via The Athletic):
“He really wants me to play point guard. He knows how tough it is, especially for our size guys to just like survive in the game. Like trying to get a good role in the game, and trying to prove people sometimes wrong.”
On joining the Lakers:
“This organization, they have great (young players) like Kuz [Kyle Kuzma], Zo [Lonzo Ball], [Brandon] Ingram. All those guys would be here, I just think if I’m here I really can do something.”
How he was shocked when he was actually picked by the Lakers:
“We all watched then I was kind of speechless when they picked me.”
Philadelphia 76ers head coach and interim general manager Brett Brown on Isaac Bonga and how he can’t comment on the pending trade (via NBC Sports Philadelphia):
“You go to 39 and with Isaac, I can’t really comment on that until the end of the moratorium. You can read into that as you should.”
Lakers assistant general manager Jesse Buss on Bonga (via The Athletic):
“What really stood out was his size and length for his position. His agility and first step are pretty good for a guy that size. He’s also extremely smooth as an athlete. Those attributes combined with his age were really intriguing to us.”
Lakers assistant coach and summer league head coach Miles Simon on Bonga (via The Athletic):
“The first thing that stands out is just his overall size. Even more so than his length, he has these thick shoulders, he’s very strong, he’s obviously tall... You can tell defensively he can be very versatile going forward in his NBA career. Then the fact that he can handle the ball like a point guard and not lose it and have fluidity and get to the paint.”
Lakers first round pick and center Moritz Wagner on seeing Bonga for the first time (via The Athletic):
“I remember seeing him the first time live in L.A. working out and I thought it was a big man working out. Then I saw him up close and it was Isaac. Big guy for a point guard.”
