Ok, as we see it, obviously USA is getting gold with a superstar team. But what I want you to do, only including the olympic players, make your "Olympic World Team" to face the Superstar USA team. Use players like Kaman and Nowitzki from Germany, Kirilenko from Russia, Yao Ming from China, Manu Ginobili from Argentina, Jose Calderon and Pau Gasol from Spain and so on.

World Team would probably kill U.S.A.
Seriously do you even watch basketball because this is the dumest thread I've ever seen.

The bolded have to be taken out. France and UK are not in the Olympics. And Parker really struggles in FIBA.
My team:
Calderon/Papaloukas/Prigioni
Ginobili/Fernandez
Kirilenko/Siskauskas
Nowitzki/Pau Gasol/Scola
Yao/Marc Gasol or Kaman or Bogut (whoever you prefer)

I love how you underestimate what the US can actually do. They could make a splash against a team like that. Gordon and Parker would not be playing due to them not being in the Beijing Olympics.

U.S.A. just had a nail biter game against Australia without Bogut.
I'm rooting for them but they wouldn't be able to beat a world team.

They had a nailbiter because they underestimated. They shouldn't be as cocky as they are. I hate the US team but you have to respect the players that come from it. So, it would be interesting to see this game though. You don't very often see teams like this and the fact that every player on the team (I believe) is a player that is or has been an NBA all-star. They have the talent but the chemistry is the one thing I think that is holding them back in the long run.
Team US Roster VS YOUR Team World Roster
