Retired General Martin E. Dempsey, the new chairman of USA Basketball, said Thursday that whether Team USA players ever embrace President-elect Donald Trump is not that important.They are not representing President-elect Trump, Dempsey said on the ESPN/ABC News podcast Capital Games. They are representing the country where we have a system that stood the test of time with three separate and equal branches of government, representing 350 million people.Dempsey is the new chairman of USA Basketball, but he wont have a primary role with the senior mens national team for the next four years.Outgoing chairman Jerry Colangelo will remain as the managing director of the national team for the next four years and thus work most closely with new Team USA coach Gregg Popovich. Colangelo will essentially serve as the teams general manager.Popovich, who coaches the San Antonio Spurs, has been outspoken in his criticism of Trump since the Nov. 8 election.Dempsey said the Team USA coach is the one who has to take a team that is representative of the country by ethnicity and race and has to pull it together, and that Popovich is expressing concern about how easy its going to be to do that in the next four years.But thats something weve been asked to do.Dempsey said the national anthem is appropriate to be played at sporting events.Its absolutely the appropriate place to celebrate our country, Dempsey said, adding there are other venues to express disagreement and that he doesnt disparage others for making those choices.Dempsey said he spoke to the mens and womens national teams at the past two Olympic Games and the World Cup of Basketball about what it means to wear the U.S. uniform in that setting.I tell them this is different since you are representing the United States, Dempsey said. ?Celebrate the freedoms we enjoy that arent available around the world. It is different representing the USA national team.Dempsey said the connection that outgoing President Barack Obama had with basketball and USA Basketball was unique because of his love of the game. He added that wont be the case with President-elect Trump. Nike Flex Shoes Sale .
