Us gossip media TMZ recently interviewed former NBA player Byron Scott and asked about his loss to Nigeria in the WARM-up game for the US men's basketball team.
Scott first said that he did not know about it, when the reporter informed him, and described it as "one of the biggest cold spots in the history of the American men's basketball team", Scott said: "I would not say 'one', this should be the biggest cold door." ”
"They've got a lot of superstars together, and they have to learn to play together and get a good run-in. (Gregg) Popovich and his coaching staff, I'm not worried about that. ”
As for whether he is optimistic about the U.S. men's basketball team winning the Olympic gold medal, Scott said: "Unstable. It is no longer a safe return to the United States. The level of world basketball has kept up with the United States, and it is much more difficult for them to win the gold medal this year. They can still do it, and if I'm going to bet, I'll still bet on them. ”
Asked which country could take the gold medal from the men's basketball team, Scott said: "That's a good question. I think France has been great this year, Yugoslavia has been great, Russia has been very strong. At any time there could be a team that would shock everyone, and this year it might be China. But I'll still choose the United States. ”
Scott didn't seem to understand the current situation. Yugoslavia has been replaced for many years, and even the Serbian men's basketball team has not been selected for the Olympic Games this year; the Chinese and Russian men's basketball teams have not entered the Olympic Games this year.
