Originally posted by LFGC79but no outside game, on offense or defense. This is how Europe has beaten the american super natural athleticism ( and will continue to do so).
The 42-point outburst by the USA in the opening stanza was fueled by Redd’s fluid stroke, as the sharpshooting guard hit three-of-four three-pointers in the period before ultimately finishing with a game high 22 points. Carmelo Anthony also tallied 22 for the winners.

Originally posted by stuartThey're defense is better, they need to maintain it throughout the game -- I don't think you realize that they've added Michael Redd and Mike Miller, pretty good three-point shooters. As well as Billups and Deron Williams. And as much as I despise Kobe, he is damn good shooter too.

*Dont get me wrong if the USA took a team of duncan shaq garnett iverson kobe anthony and james they will be unstopabble, their overall talent pool is too much*. But lately taking all super stars has not been effective thus the team went into a renovation phase.
Do you think this team could beat Spain?
By the way this applies pretty much to all the teams in the americas except for Argentina.

James, Anthony, and Stoudemire are much better players now than in 2004. Wade isn't really suited to the international game.

Nothing to make noise about. Will need to see a game against Brasil or even Argentina to actually see something to evaluate. It is good to see Kobe look to pass before shooting. I like our shooting too, but I hope our D continues to hold up. Still wondering how well Chandler will do for this team."...I got the hand that will rock your craddle / cream you like cheese spread you on my bagel..." - Shaq

I dont want to make any excuses about the coaching staff, santiago etc. This is a pathetic showing, inconsistency is the word of the day.
Manolo is on acid or under a lot of pressure.
So sad a team full of so much talent. Some players that have led in many stats in leagues in Poland, Croatia and Italy and we look like children on neighborhood playground.
Why in the blue hell will you put the bench on a game in the second quarter just as you get a good lead and you are playing consistently.
