SI released a Top-100 player list featuring Marcus Smart, Gordon Hayward, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Kemba Walker. We debated the criteria, with a preview of Coach Nick's assessment of the four players who represented Boston with Team USA coming up later this week on the pod.  - Is Smart an offensive player? Has Caris LeVert or Jaylen Brown progressed more to this point? Did Jayson Tatum progress? Is Kemba on the verge of breaking into the elite of the NBA? And why in the world is Zach LaVine so low?  - Speaking of Team USA, remember how odd that roster selection process was? Mason Plumlee made the team while Bam Adebayo got cut. Derrick White made the team while Trae Young sat out and De'Aaron Fox dropped out? Now, Jerry Colangelo called out the defectors (Devin Booker? Bradley Beal? Anthony Davis?) saying he won't forget who dropped out. Is the USA bound to repeat mistakes for 2020, and what's that mean for the Celtics' involvement in Tokyo next summer?  - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
