I think alot of Americans are rooting against the US team. Can't remember that ever happening before. The NBA should take notice. |

I don't get it. Why are people against this team, yet they supported the original Dream Team? This is the American team. Would you have root for them if guys like Shaq, Garnet, Kidd, Carter, and Kobe had gone? The guys that are there are the ones who wanted to be there. Guys who could have and probably should have spent the summer resting. Outside of Allen Iverson, who on this team could you categorize as a "thug"? Is Tim Duncan a member of the Bloods? Is Dwayne Wade a murderer? Even if the United States had selected the best hoopsters from the Riker's Island Recreational League, you should still root for them. It comes down to America being the champions or some other country holding the gold. I don't see why its hard to root for your own nation. |

I know you were around 6 or 7 so you might not remember it vividly, but the original Dream Team included some of the best basketball players of all time. They knew how to play the game, fundamentals, shooting, and all. This team doesn't. I love b-ball and the NBA, but its level of play has taken a huge step backwards in recent years. |

I know the original team was great. It was a squad of future Hall of Famers and they dominated. I actually have some Dream Team basketball cards. I understand that the level of play has dropped off and this generation of ball players doesn't understand or care about fundamentals. But its still the American team. I don't know why people don't want to root for them. Isn't that the equivalent of saying, "Ah, to hell with it. My team sucks so I'm not rooting for them anymore." |

Why isn't there an African basketball team? Couple basketballs, Pay Less sneakers, and headbands wouldn't cost that much. Now them niggas could run a fastbreak. Stamina obviously wouldn't be an issue. All they need is a 5 man roster. :dunno: Rob, just root for the Puerto Rican team. |

Strider, you made a typo. You're not setting a good example for BS14. It's spelled B-A-L... um, nevermind. :smirk: |
