@dookdawg214 In international rules, a dominating post player is minimized because the key is wider. The funny thing is in the last Olympics, USA was #1 in assists, assist/TO ratio and fg%. When US puts our best guys on the court we win. Its rare that you blow a team out in back to back games. Even in NBA series between 1 and 8 seeds that rarely happens. We beat Spain by 37 the first olympic game and 11 the second.
Weak argument. Firstly, the US dominated internationally in the 90s with no problem, and even before the pros played at the Olympic level, the US teams won abroad regularly. They no longer do. Secondly, the rules are not that different. I had to make the transition from US (high school and NCAA) to Europe. The main difference is the key is wider at the baseline and the refs call travels more. Aside from that, it's just a lot of little stuff that has no impact on play.
You should tell the kid with the orange shirt that his feet are in the wrong position. The guy with the ball can drive inside like a hot knife through butter. First teach them the fundamentals coach!
@scoutsouljademoman Although Naismath was born in Canada. Basketball was invented while he was living in the United States. What does knowing your basketball facts have anything to do with being an African American?
The US team isn't what it used to be. The'yre still the best but they don't dominate anymore. They squeak by their opponents and, in many cases, lose. In the 2004 Olympics, they couldn't even win bronze. And in the FIFA games they lose to teams like Greece and Argentina. Very sad for a nation of 300 million that created the sport. Spain's national team will probably beat the US in the 2012 Olympics. They're very good and stuck closely to the US in Beiging.
