Team USA /France

[snively]

Andre Iguodala has had like 8 deflections.

Wow Rondo!

[Who]

I am a little uncomfortable with how much of a PG-centric offense the US becomes when Rondo is on the floor.

With so much offensive talent on the floor I'd rather see some more ball movement. Getting more guys involved in creating plays rather than just finishing them off.

Still, it's very effective.

I'd lean more towards putting Rondo in the second unit and letting him run the show there though. Rather than as a starter.

[snively]

Well at least the PG-centric offense isn't quite as prone to turnovers.  Gay, Granger and Durant have been very turnover-prone when given the opportunity to create for themselves.

[snively]

The team could really use a pure off-ball 2 guard to diversify the offense.  All their 2-guards are combo guards who are more comfortable with the ball.

France's defense is slacking.

[Who]

I would be worried about this Team USA if Pau Gasol were playing. Definitely a vulnerable side.

With Spain not having Pau though, the US should remain favourites.

Rondo > Rose

Later westbrook.

Looks like its Rondo/Billups/Rose and at times Curry at PG.

[Who]

Big fan of Eric Gordon. He has a lot to offer to this team.

I'll be very disappointed if he gets cut.

It's amazing to me that Diaw can play so well with so much extra weight.

Just started watching ... Diaw has put on major weight ... wow. Nice to see we're in control ... though a bit sloppy.

Westbrook is the most logical cut.  He can't play the 2 and Rose is better offensive player at the 1.

[Who]

Yeah, Derrick Rose shouldn't be on this squad.

Watching him play is very irritating ... reminiscent of Stephon Marbury.

[Bahku]

Steph Curry has improved progressively ... if he stays healthy, he's going to be a lot of fun to watch in the next few years. I like his game.
