USA who?

Re:: USA who?

Yeah, I'm disappointed in both the guys that were asked to play that didn't, and the guys that are playing now with no heart. It should be an honor to be asked to represent your country. They should play, play hard, and play proud.

I'm still holding out for hope that they will pull their heads our of their asses and play some ball...

Highly unlikely that they'll turn the ship around. Look at there faces after that game, they just looked like they don't care what-so-ever. Why are they there in the first place, to party. Basketball is probably the furthest thing on their minds. Only really honorable player there is Tim Duncan, but you really can't do much when you are being tripled team & your teammates can't make open shoots if their life depended on it.

Someone said on the radio today that all the athletes are staying in the olympic village except for the USA basketball team. Them guys chose to to stay in a ?2000 a night hotel.

^^^ of course because they thought it was going to be a holiday in which they would just go and grab a gold medal each and come home. little did they know the other countries would have the audacity (sp?) to actually compete. Guess the other teams didnt notice the USA on their jerseys.

Re:: USA who?

first there is no defense played in the nba. also the nba plays man on man, those zones fucking killed them. then there comes those egos. all they know is how to drive a lane and slam. when you have teams blocking the lane and daring them to take outside shots it's just embarassing.

also the $2000 a night hotel is a cruise ship they leased sitting in one of the harbors.

it's funny because they get paid so much fucking money but can't play the game.

actually the NBA has had the zone for one or two seasons now. and most of these kids are young enough to still remember zone defense from college or high school.

yes there are more stories about the olympics. like the Greek couple that committed suicide over a solitaire game.

so that makes it better or worse? of is this for "security" reasons?


christ, who cares really, it seems the olympics of late have a become a soap opera. with the figure skating crap from last winter olympics. all the drug scandals, now this with the basketball.
