I guess I should have posted this here:

USA Basketball to announce wide variety of standouts for new 28-player pool - ESPN

 

[n_huffhines]

Derozan
Thompson
Beal
Rose
Irving

....{sigh}. We could be in trouble if K decides not to play bigs again.

U.S. chooses 19 players for men's basketball roster - ESPN

Hopefully Rose can get his year on track and use this as a leaping pad for the nba season.

Can't believe Rose is on this team.

This. If I'm a Bulls fan or the owner I'm not very happy about this.

As an American, im not very happy about it either.

Kevin Love is out

 

[YankeeVol]

Aldridge and Griffin aren't playing as well

I think that was already known, but I am a little disappointed about not seeing love play.

 

[n_huffhines]

Kevin Love is out

I guess he didn't like 10mpg last time

 

[BadJerry20]

I would never play to be honest, maybe to get one gold medal but that would be it.

 

[n_huffhines]

Depends on where the Olympics were, for me.

If they pick the right players it can be a vacation like it was in 1992. If they play small and give shots to inefficient scorers, the pressure is on and it feels like work. Just trying not to fail. Wouldn't be fun, IMO.

 

[BadJerry20]

I just wouldn't risk my career and millions on it. I get one gold for the experience and be done.

 

[YankeeVol]

I'd rather have a Gold Medal than a Ring

Same here.

 

[n_huffhines]

Millsap called up to fill Love void

 

[BadJerry20]

See he's easily replaced

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

Ha.

Wonder how the Bulls brass feels about Rose playing in this tournament.

 

[BadJerry20]

I'm a lover of PGs, so just curious...of the 5 trying out Wall, Curry, Lillard, Rose and Kyrie...what 2 or 3 are you taking? If I'm taking 2 it's Curry and Lillard for me, their shooting is better suited for the international game. IMO

They'll probably say they are ok with it, secretly I would have to think they are not very happy about it.

Curry and Rose. Shooting is good, but so is athleticism. And if you've seen any of my posts, you know I'm not taking two guys (Curry/Lillard/Kyrie) that both don't play D. I really like watching Lillard though.
