    one thing that you can see is apparent is that nba players dont have nba refs manipulating games in their favor. Its every man for himself and these refs are governed my the olympic committee

    oh man i wish steph curry was on this team too. thats the only thing missing

    Australia has a good team, they're ranked #3 in the world.

    Need to play Delly less though, he's looking cooked

    I realize the USA team just got together but for players this good the ball movement should be better. At this rate the USA is going to be in serious trouble when they hit the better teams.

    Thybulle is playing really well and we've got a bunch of skilled bigs. Baynes, Landale and Kay are really well suited to the FIBA game.

    NBA status doesn't matter in international tournaments, it's a different style of basketball.

    Mills turns it up a lot when playing for Australia. Kind of like Scola always dominating for Argentina

    As I was saying...Popovic has some bad juju with this team, maybe he can't coach players with large egos, I dunno. But Team USA finished 7th...7th...in the last big international tourney under him.

    7th....let that sink in.

    they letting mattisye actually play defense. No superstar favoritism like the NBA. Love it

    nba rules inflate numbers. Lillard looks invisible out there

    Yes, he sucks coaching the international team. This isn't some odd idea.

    Some NCAA coaches that are brilliant can't coach in the NBA...and the record is clear no matter what you're saying, so far, he sucks coaching this team.

    7th place. 7th.

    I'm Murican! I love monster trucks, huge explosions in my movies and greasy fast food.

    But I'm kinda enjoying these guys getting beat.
