    he is damn quick. Jason Kidd can't stay 1 on 1 in front of him and looks like Paul doesn't like to play defense, he's lazy

    btw Newley played well in the 1st, 6 pts

    Our boy newely looks good. the stint in the europian league has really ironed out the creases in he's game. sadly i dont think he'll ever make our roster, but he's a very interesting prospect.

    Would of liked to see Bogut in there.

    Sick to my gut watching Anderson and freaking Neilson who are terrible inside - and get Saville on the bench and keep him there...

    Mills is explosive, has caught the US off guard.

    Newley does very little in a half court game but is decent in transition i'll credit him that.

    What's clear from these "friendlies" is that DWill, Wade, Kobe and LeBron will be carrying this team. I used to think Melo was our best international player but he just doesn't seem have it this year.

    This US Men basketball team is terrible. Only 4-point game against the mediocre Aussie team WITHOUT Andrew Bogut. Those guys have no passing game except ally-ops and backdoor cuts. The reason they keep winning is that their opponents are weak and that the only thing they do well is their transition game. But now all their risky passes are intercepted and they are totally exposed.

    Damn, I didn't realize how bad of a free throw shooter Dwight Howard was.
