    McGrady was asked to join the US team but declined. So no, he won't be there unless he's observing.

    Useless thread...

    so what, whats the big deal about who are playing in the Olympics.

    it probably couldnt be more obvious who is playing and who is not, other than McGrady.

    man we need some higher quality threads on this bbs

    Yao. Scola.

    T-Mac will probably never make it to the US olympics team ever again in his career.

    the big deal is fatigue and injuries.

    Pau Gasol got injured during the FIBA World Championships.

    other than that, it should be obvious.

    I think McGrady cited the reason for not being on the team as wanting to spend more time with his children. It's like the opposite of Karl Malone!

    Wow, check your attitude at the door!

    What is your problem?

    We don't talk about anything THAT interesting because:

    1. We are out of the the playoffs, which are not over yet
    2. We can't talk about trades and FA signings, because there haven't been any yet.
    3. Is there a standard at which threads are rated, W22? As long as a thread has SOME sort of credibility which doesn't offend the general public, why can't it be okay to tell the general public about?

    I, for one, like to hear about who will be in the Olympics. Good to see you have such national pride for your American team, W22.

    I agree with W22; this is indeed a ridiculous thread. However, Aznoob is right. We're out of the playoffs, so whatever, let the kid do what he wants.

    is the OP asking if players are simply traveling to China to watch their teammates compete?

    fair enough question.

    but the (projected) rosters for Team USA have been set.

    kobe? :confused:

    Wow, what a douche. Just another reason not to like Utah. Malone can support other families but not his own. I'm glad we don't have a guy like that in Houston. I don't care about all his accomplishments in the NBA, I rather draft David Carr to be our point guard than draft such a deadbeat dad and person to the team.
