Did u notice that the usa team is playing small ball??

Question

this year they're without amare.. dwight and bosh are there only big guys..

Answer 1

It doesn't matter because we're still bigger then all of the other teams...

Answer 2

i thought i was interesting how dwade started at SF

Answer 3

yea they only have three tall guys Boozer, Bosh, and Dwigth but its four if you count Prince other than that everyone's mostly guards and you have a  few fowards in there but i mean what's gonna happen when they play a team with a lot of height well i guess they'll figure something out.

Answer 4

yeah and Bosh isn't even a true center they should have picked up Kaman or Chandler for some size

Answer 5

they don't care about defense or rebound coz they are going for overwhelming firepower with likes of james anthony wade kobe redd scoring 20 points a game each = 100 points plus paul williams howard bosh boozer with 10 points a game = 150 points total.

Answer 6

No. Boozer too.

Answer 7

yea i remember seein kobe play power forward lol

Answer 8

Yeah, the international game doesn't favor the big man in the post.  Remember Duncan's frustration last time, when he kept finding himself in foul trouble?  Most foreign big men are guys that can play the perimeter and hit the J.  This time around Colangelo and Coach K made a concerted effort to choose a team that suits international play.  There are a lot more guys that can shoot the 3, and I think that will make a huge difference.

Answer 9

yea, hope studemire playz next year!!!

Answer 10

USA is playing small ball to better adapt to the European play of 1 Big. Usa will not have a hard time defending any team with thier play of small ball because the European game is a game of  backscreens and rolls so you gonna have to have guys on the court who can keep up and push the ball up quicker. if you were watching last nights game vs Canada you would have seen this style in effect in its best during the fourth quarter when USA had CP3 and Deron at the gaurds and Wade at the 3 Tayshaun at the 4 nd Boozer (shouldnt be there ... shoulda been Camby or Tyson) playing center. This smalll ball allows for better ball control and it really changes they game around from when the starters are in Kidd Kobe Melo Lebron Dwight/Bosh this change in physical presence will be impossible to keep up with. Cant wait till we play China and you will see Yao exposed cuz he gonna have to go for 50pts while in foul trouble. And for those who keep saying melo shouldnt be on the team because of legal problems please shut up because you obvioulsy havent seen a team USA game before, Melo is the featured player for team USA because this type of run and gun play is ideal for him because he is an offensive weapon he dont need plays called he just needs the ball and thats y lebron and kobe will lead the USA to victory by taking all the pressure from Melo and just let him operate. Shout out to Brooklyn. - Dot
