As the United States of America go through arguably the most divisive moment in modern history, not even Team USA’s basketball team is safe from criticism. This team just got to the Olympic Games final against France, where they will fight for gold for the 18th time in history. But these players do not awaken the patriotic feeling as other teams did in the past. At least that’s what legendary sports broadcaster Joe Benigno believes. Today, Joe still co-hosts a sports radio show from New Jersey and he is considered one of the most authorized voices in East Coast sports. This week, Benigno came out swiging to criticize his least favorite names on the team.

Joe was on the WFAN morning show, ‘Boomer and Gio’ to discuss his feelings about team USA. This is what he said: “As far as the Olympic – this is the most unlikeable Olympic basketball team that I can ever remember. I’ll just leave it at that. I’m no fan of Kevin Durant. I’m no fan of LeBron James. And I am certainly no fan of the head coach, Kerr. I don’t want to get into any more than that. I said this to Jerry and I don’t want to get into it too much – but it is a very unlikeable men’s USA team. I’ll tell you that. They are not likable at all. I’ve got to say that.”

Did Kevin Durant react to Joe Benigno’s diss?
Joe Benigno’s criticism came last Tuesday, meaning that this was before Kevin Durant made his statement criticizing people’s patriotism and his view on trolling them. Despite Benigno’s criticism, there is no proof that Kevin Durant’s Twitter rant has anything to do with this. However, it does add up to the division the country is currently going through. It is probable that may have been one of the many criticisms that got Kevin Durant triggered to do what he did but there is no way to confirm it unless KD himself does.
