    No way they take Cousins on team USA unless he completely turns his attitude around.

    With Kobe and Wade out, I think KD will play more of the SG spot. And Melo usually plays the 4. Kevin Love played center last time.

    Remember this isn't the NBA, and these aren't your normal players. And sometimes you don't want your absolute best scorer at the position, you need a few role players as well.

    Sure. Fact is they need true center more than Sf. Only 2-3 legit Big men available, Tyson Chandler, probably Drummond, Howard

    Other positions are stacked. And some better and younger players at the stacked sf need the experience as well.

    So its between attitude change or some injuries.

    Chandler has much of a shot as me having a shot at a date with Kate Upton on her period.

    From what I read on twitter over the few days of practice, Chandler wasn't mentioned much so I guess he didn't make much of an impression either.

    It's ok though, those games can be distractions to off-season trainings and affect regular season performance.

    Me either, but playing with Melo, KD, LeBron, etc. would be an incredible experience. He probably wouldn't play much in the games that matter.

    I wouldn't have thought Melo would play at the world cup, most of the olympic team usually don't.

    I watched some of the game Saturday night, Chandler didn't really do anything.
    On offense he was always just set up away from the ball.

    disappointing.
