The basketball team is going to suck. AGAIN. They pick a bunch of stuck up, pussy ass b-ball stars who have no concept of the word team work and watch them look like a bunch of shit heads. AGAIN!

Change USA basketball's Dream Team name to the "ME ME ME ME Team".

Lack of presence inside, getting raped on rebounds could be a problem.

Also most of them are superstars they don't usually do the dirty work/intangible stuffs that scrub players do.

Who constantly got gangbanged by 3 players for defensive rebounds in the last exhibition game against Bogut-less Australia because US team loves fast break like *insert random ethnic joke here*

4 hopes:

1) USA Basketball doesn't get gold.

3) China gets more medals than USA
4) Chinese Taipei gets at least 1 medal.

Congrats usa

But this match and championship NOT FAIR. If olympic games are FIBA rules are FIBA rules not NBA rules. Too much help for the USA team.

In fiba you only can one foot (i don't know how to say exactly sorry) and in nba two. The americans make this match 10-12 at least. You only have to review the match.

Spain not violate the rule in the match, only Navarro in the last play (showing to the referers the way that the americans do the things).

So...is throwing your elbow into someone's face a violation of the rules according to FIBA or is that allowed?

I vote Kobe for that +14 CLUTCH points and 2 assists after it was back to a 2 point game.

Raging Spaniard

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
WELL DONE TEAM USA! We played our hearts out, and at least we made it a close and exciting match, we can be proud :)

You either dont know how to count or you dont know the FIBA rule.


this has been a complain since day 1. The problem is that it gives too much af an advantage for the one doing the travel, and since they do it everytime, they have too much advantge when starting to move with the ball
