USA Basketball Announces Olympic Roster

Seriously though, it's an incredibly versatile and athletic team, and I can't wait to watch them crush the competition. I can't wait to see a lineup of Paul/Kobe/Durant/Lebron/Griffin.

There's almost no bad combination possible with this roster.
 
It seems like they'll be going the "just outscore the other team" route. Honestly, this group could go play any style they want and as long as everyone's on the same page, they should win.
 
I would replace Iggy with Favors. They need another shot blocker. Maybe even Anthony Davis. They dont need Iggy.

I think this is the first time I've ever agreed with you on anything.

This squad is hurting for bigs, not to mention the fact that they have already assembled the best group of wing players in the world. Iggy is a nice player, but what's he going to bring to the table that Lebron, Kobe, Durrant, Harden, and Carmello don't?

I still think USA wins the gold, but I bet there's times where it's alot tougher for them than it should be thanks to their lack of bigs.

Spain and the Gasol brothers come to mind.

Holy ****! I kind of agree, but I would replace melo instead.

Oh ****!

You guys agree with me?

That must mean I got this one wrong.

Damn!

I was sure about this to. Ill have to go back to the lab and check my calculations.
 
bigs are less valuable in the international style of play. Is there a reason Wade is not on the team? That was the only guy I was surprised not to see.
