Jackson Gatlin (@Locked On Rockets) is joined by Chuck Walter (@Locked On Warriors) to discuss Team USA winning gold over France behind 24 points from Steph Curry, including a flurry of threes to closeout the game in the final minutes, whether or not the Warriors are wasting a chance at another title by not going all-in again while Steph can still play at this level, and the potential of a team up with LeBron James before the two retire.

Then, John Karalis (@Locked On Celtics) swings by to talk about the Jayson Tatum benching storyline that has followed Team USA all Olympics, whether or not it's Tatum's fault for not playing, how the handling of Tatum's minutes and role could have a far-reaching impact on the 2028 Olympics roster, and predicting who the starting five will be four years from now in Los Angeles.

Lastly, Brendon Kleen (@Locked On Suns) tackles Devin Booker adapting to a different role with Team USA and if he can bring that same play to the Suns next season, Kevin Durant becoming the winningest basketball Olympian of all-time, and KD's social media interactions discussing the state of basketball fans and media.

Team USA wins its first Olympic game but all the talk is about who didn't play. Jayson Tatum got a DNP-CD. Why didn't he play, is it a big deal, and should Celtics fans be upset about it? Joel Embiid continues to not only play, but start. Why is he such a bad fit and why is he immune to the kind of minutes adjustment that Tatum has seen? Meanwhile, Kevin Durant is underdoing a bit of a positive turn and Matt Moore and David Ramil on opposite sides of whether KD can see a lovable, popular end to his career.

Zach LaVine and the Chicago Bulls seem to be at odds. John Karalis ( @LockedOnCeltics ) and Jake Madison ( @LockedOnPelicans ) look at how that could impact a trade for the former All-Star in the Windy City. Plus, did the Denver Nuggets have the worst offseason in the NBA? Some insiders seem to think so. And do you agree or disagree with Kevin Durant that FIBA and the NBA should have different rules?
