So I just got another viewing of the game and I have to say......
- Chandler is really lucky to be on this team. He should not wear another USA jersey.
- Granger is the same; at least for now. If it weren't for the height issue I would've rather had another guard (Rondo) take his place here in Turkey.
- Westbrook + Love + Gordon on the court is actually a good idea. Mysteriously the lane opens up more.
- Gay is going to become a raging bull and start slaughtering opponents...very soon (prediction).
- My respect for Billups is higher than ever. I never liked him as an NBA or USA player, but he has been money this tourney.
- While trying not to over do it, Gomes is a solid player who uses the floor well. He is versitile and should have more teams knocking on his door soon.
- Fortes looks very promising and that cross-over step he did on Rose was sick (props to him). I think if Angola get continue to produce players like this they have a good chance to return to many Worlds and Olympics.
- Unfortunately to make up for our holes in the middle or open shots from our opponents we need to raise our D outside like we did throughout the game. Applying pressure by our guards, while sending a fast transitioner like Durant or Igua on top would raise hell. If done correctly and extensively, I think we can solve many D problems.
