Just awkward and funny to think though, Booker + Middleton + Holiday all Olympic bound and could possibility in the same plane going to Japan.  Grin. Last game they tried to kill each other and now they are team mates and possible to bring home another Olympic basketball gold for the US team.  Grin.
But I think those three Olympians will be okay.
After the Game 6 end buzzer I saw Booker stayed and congratulate the Bucks team, unlike CP3 who made his way to the dugout. No butthurt for Booker but it was a lot for CP3 because of his age.

I also read rumours of CP3 or Russell Westbrook teaming up in Lakers jersey. For now it's a fantasy, but who knows, maybe Westbrook is willing to be traded again in the West. But it will cost a lot from the Lakers.
The Lakers' salary cap will be the issue here. They will have to let go of a lot of their players to acquire those big names.
Oh, and the Lakers are already making some moves this early. Here is one.

The qualifying offer for Horton-Tucker is $1.9 million, according to ESPN front office insider Bobby Marks, and will make the 20 year old a restricted free agent, allowing the Lakers to match any outside offer to retain their former second-round pick.
