This team was never made for prime time. With some better players (Book?) in Paris..... they should win the gold next year.

 

[Ronin]

All is not lost.

I only saw the end but was it a horrible broadcast or was that just bad timing?

 

[Covert Rain]

They will tweak the roster before the Olympics. They need to.

 

[Dback Jon]

Well that sucks

 

[Mainstreet]

Team USA should rethink the need to add more size. It turned out to be a valid criticism. Rebounding was an issue.

I like Steve Kerr, but worthiness has got nothing to do with it. What makes USA more worthy than Germany and Serbia?

Props to Germany, and another wake up call for USA basketball

I don't think we're really sending the best players and I think that comes down to risk reward - not enough incentive for American players be it stacks or status
