Ribeiro Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 The USA Dream Team just finished getting their ass kicked by Italy! Until these selfish stars learn the word "team" and start listening to the Coach, expect more of this. They didn't just lose, it was an embarassment. See for yourself: USA! USA!

Fanpuck33_ Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 The Olympic team proves how selfish NBA players are today. Half of the best American players were too selfish to even play on the team, and those who did are still selfish players who care only about themselves rather than the team. I didn't watch the game, but it seems like the only team players are veteran Tim Duncan and rookie Dwayne Wade. And Allen Iverson as co-captain? He is the worst candidate for captain I can think of. Was Larry Brown jsut trying to make him like him again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribeiro Posted August 4, 2004 Author Share Posted August 4, 2004 Is the other Captain Tim Duncan? Maybe he made AI a co-captain because he's firmiliar with him. Kind of like how CUJO was the starter for the Canadian Hockey Team. Maybe because AI is one of the best on the team? He certainly lacks leadership though, since he was suspended for the first game.

Fanpuck33_ Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Yeah, Duncan is the other captain. He should be the only captain, he is the only real leader the team has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ribeiro Posted August 5, 2004 Author Share Posted August 5, 2004 Did you see the game against Germany yesterday? With 2 seconds left, Iverson made a shot from a bit in front of half-court to win the game. I love the game of basketball. For shots like that, it reminds me of why I love that game and the NBA.
