    I forsee another 4th place effort from this team. Not enough basketballs to go around with these shooters.

    SHANE BATTIER?

    WTF?

    Needed another big man, I mean, Amare and Howard will probably pick up minutes at center, but still.

    Hardly.
    None of those guards are actual defenders, so we'll give up a lot of threes again. And we still are shady in the three point shooting department, we're mostly made up of slashers.

    Chris Paul is the only defensive liability in that backcourt. So, yeah, you don't know shit.

    Arenas couldn't guard a tomato. What is Joe Johnson? Oh, some guy on a basketball team that really doesn't even exist. And Wade? Winning a championship doesn't give him the magical ability to actually defend.

    So then, go back to stealing rims or something.

    Dwight Howard is really a center. Have you seen the pic's of him from Team US practices? He is a ****ing freak of nature.

    not to mention Ben Wallace's style is pretty horrible for international competition.
