It may be hard for a country to beat the USA, but I believe that Europe as a whole could create one or two rosters which could beat the USA.
Here's my roster for team Europe:
PG Tony Parker, Milos Teodosic
SG Vassilis Spanoulis, Juan Carlos Navarro
SF Dirk Nowitzki, Andrei Kirilenko, Linas Kleiza
PF Pau Gasol, Boris Diaw
C Marc Gasol, Joakim Noah, Nenad Krstic
Head coach: Zeljko Obradovic
If this team would have considerable time to prepare, I think this hypothetical team would be on par, if not better than team USA 2012.
