#3 No Olympics means no bragging rights
Much of the blame for the huge player fallout has been put on the extensive schedule tipped off by the upcoming FIBA World Cup. From an NBA player's perspective, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics follows right after the ever-so-important NBA season and for players who want to make a mark at the biggest stage, FIBA World Cup appears as nothing more than a glorified exhibition tourney.
The aforementioned notion is meant to hinder the commitment of individuals in China carrying the mindset of competing in the Tokyo Olympics. All things considered, the World Cup games would be nothing short of desperate dogfights and despite the talent pool, the team which wants it the most will come out on top.
The players on the USA roster carry the necessary talent in order to win it all, but their mental approach to all anomalies mentioned above will play a huge factor in rendering the difference between a boom or bust.
Guess the Bulls players in this quiz and it's not going to be easy!
