At least you guys get your best players.
Ours are too stuck up too play,[/quote]
We'll probably miss 2 of our stars - Macijauskas and Ilgauskas.
As for USA, here's your last year FIBA Americas squad:
Chauncey Billups
Jason Kidd
Lebron James
Deron Williams
Michael Redd
Tayshaun Prince
Kobe Bryant
Dwight Howard
Amare Stoudemire
Micke Miller
Tyson Chandler
Carmelo Anthony
And as we saw in the past big name in NBA doesn't mean that much in international competitions (Tim Duncan, Allen Iverson, Gary Payton, Vince Carter etc.). Who would you choose for USA if you were the coach?[/quote]
Provided they actually play, I'd take:
Chauncey Billups
Lebron James
Carmelo Anthony
Ray Allen
Kevin Garnett
Kobe Bryant
Baron Davis
Chris Paul
A healthy Dwayne Wade
Shaquille O'neal
Gilbert Arenas
Then either Dwight howard or Bruce Bowen, toss-up.
