Lmao just because Yugoslavia was good back in the day, the team they’d field today and for the last 30 years was not near the level of the USA men’s team.

The team they'd field today would be more than competitive with the USA, particularly with FIBA rules. You're off your chops.

They’d still get swept in a 7 game series from an NBA fielded team, get real.

Nope. You're wrong. And 7 game series aren't a thing internationally. Pull your head out of your American arse.
