Why is it that the people in charge of putting together the American team don't ever learn. They do not pick American's players who have and are aleady playing in Europe and are familiar playing European basketball as part of the team. I kept hearing all these excuses over the weekend "we have to learn to play European basketball...play like a team....We have to learn the international game better....boo-hoo-hoo" Whatever, America already has very talented American basketball players who know very well how to play "the internatonal game, they might be straight out of college some of them and very well known, but they are playing in Europe, they are familiar with this style of playing as well as familiar with most European players and these American players are some of the best over there. It really leaves one shaking his/her head for the reason they don't make up the USA "Dream Team" is because they don't sale sneakers. [tsk, tsk]
