Kevin Durant and USA Basketball, plus NBA Draft Coverage Jul 26, 2021

Show notes

Adam Armbrecht is back talking all things Brooklyn Nets Basketball on a solo Monday show! Adam kicks off the week first with a look back at Sunday's disappointing loss for Kevin Durant and USA basketball at the hands of France. The loss broke a 24 game win streak for team USA and with Greg Popovich stating "We’ve been preparing for France for two years. I think about it every day,” it makes you wonder what went wrong and if the international game brings superstar talent back to the mean.

Adam then turns his attention to the NBA Draft and the big offseason talking point, Spencer Dinwiddie. While Spencer Dinwiddie has made his contract desires clear, there is now a growing perception that the market may not be a robust as once thought. Retaining Dinwiddie, or moving him in a sign and trade really won't impact their Draft day plans in Adam's mind. There has been a clear need for defensive talent in support of the super talents of Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden. With a late first round pick Adam discusses the potential steal of the draft from a Brooklyn Nets concern and why finding a key championship contributor is possible at the 27th overall pick!
