My 12

C: M.Gasol N.Vucevic Valanciunas
PF: B.Diaw P.Gasol D.Motiejunas
SF: D.Gallinari N.Bjelica
SG: G.Dragic R.Fernandez
PG: M.Teodosic N.De Colo defensively this team is alot better than US. However US has so many PG to chooce from its ridicolous.

Don't really see how this team is defensively better. Only one truly outstanding defender here, that is Marc Gasol. The rest are just outclassed on defense, some very bad defenders. It's different talking about tactics and strategy, but as individuals very few people from that roster actually play consistent and solid defense.

Team USA (depending on the roster that they take) will always field a larger number of elite defenders. It's a different story that they usually just go for tempo vs Euro teams, instead of locking down on defense.
 
European teams are the biggest threat to American basketball for like 15 years now. The competition hasn't been this close ever. But USA will still win if they get the right players involved and those players being willing to perform.
