Who cares? The FIBA ball is slippery. USA players have never consistently hit threes in the FIBA tournament since they joined it. Rose was never known for his three point shooting but he's got two FIBA championships. And penetrates better than anybody.
And since when has shooting threes been a criteria for anything in the tournament?

A lot of people care since there's been topics about it. Originally Posted by Pointguard

Re: How come Derick Rose still can't shoot 3's?
You see it all comes down to muscle memory and... oh wait, that one doesn't work....
Well it's because he had a hurt knee and didn't practice shooting for 2 straight years so.... oh wait that's not right either...
Oh well it's just that the FIBA ball is extra slippery so it's hard to shoot 3's. That's right. The perfect excuse for Rose's latest failure.

The US won, hardly a failure. Him playing in FIBA was step 1 in his road back. Originally Posted by hawksdogsbraves

He did nothing to help the USA win. In fact, you could probably make the argument that he hurt our chances, considering he played horribly and took up the spot of someone who could have contributed more. Originally Posted by imdaman99

It didn't end up mattering because the rest of the world is downright awful at basketball, but the point still remains.
