I did watch the senior team vs the select team. Was pretty clear why they lost. Select team kept things simple, hit shots and were faster to the ball. Senior team tried more set plays and the chemistry still isn't there for running that level offense. Also as others said not everyone played so maybe that was a part of it, as in new rotation maybe hurting the accuracy. I like seeing the play be so fast compared to typical NBA games. Seems like a real effort for pace.

So I think it’s Smart/White/Harris for two spots, and Plumlee/Lopez/Barnes for two spots.

This is what I expected to happen to Young, but he was just cut. Tucker's "ankle injury" gives a veteran an out without getting cut because he wasn't good enough.

Seriously, if you watch the games with him in it, he was pretty bad.

I would not be surprised if Barnes came down with soreness and had to withdraw as well. In the end, White has shot the ball horribly, even though he has played very well in every other area. That might be the reason he gets cut.

Am I the only one that wants a guy to just say, "report that I am cut. I'm not giving up on playing for USA".

Apparently Twitch.tv/nba will be streaming the game. At least that's what the following release leads me to believe...https://www.usab.com/news-events/news/2019/08/twitch-announcement.aspx

*fingers crossed* [edit: confirmed]

Not finishing as well tonight, but I’m loving Tatum’s aggressiveness going to the hole.
