Really good lists, Raze.
A few comments:
1) Brandon Jennings should be ahead of a lot of the PGs on your list but he is so low on the pecking order that this is a moot point.
2) We must have Iggy somewhere on one of your lists. SG or SF doesn't matter but he has a reasonable chance to make the olympic roster and is only 27 himself.
3) Tyreke Evans was on the US radar for a while but had a disappointing sophomore season. He could still turn it around if there is a season this year.
4) Roy is talented enough to be on the lists but given that he doesn't have knees I cannot see any way that he plays in an offseason tournament. Even if he wanted to and Team USA wanted him, I cannot imagine that the Blazers would agree to let him play. It would be a repeat of the Ilgauskas situation with the Cavs.
