    Wow, this is embarrassing. I guess this team has just given up on the tournament. Three losses in one tournament for team USA...where's the pride? :(

    George Karl didnt play Paul Pierce in the 4th quarter. What kind of coach did we send to represent our country??? I think its official. George Karl has lost it.

    Those guys on the US team are a bunch of prideless jackasses. The fact that they are representing the US is a shame. Gimme a friggin break...sad, very sad.

    That's what I was thinking...they gave up.

    Tisk, tisk...

    It's almost like the US players said, "If we can't have Gold, we
    don't want anything."

    It's like they are saying they are too good for anything else.

    There are a lot of countries that would have loved 5th place.
    There are a lot of conntries that would have loved Bronze (although
    we were out of that after our 2nd loss).

    It's one thing to have PRIDE. It's another things when that PRIDE chokes
    you to death.

    According to one espn article, Pierce hasn't been a team player. This is supposed to be the dream team. The other Sg, whether it's Miller or Finley should be good enough to fill in against these guys.
