Why aren't Kevin Garnett and Richard Hamilton on the U.S.A. Olympic team?

Question

Why? Prince and Billups are. How about Vince Carter and J-Rich?

Answer 1

Because there's no room for them. Team USA can only have 12 players.

With the exception of Garnett I think team USA has better players than all of the above.

Answer 2

They dont need them.

Answer 3

Whoever picked that time was bribed. Why is Tashaun Prince on the U.S.? I don't know about Rip but K.G. should definitely get onto the team

Answer 4

because KG DID NOT WANT TO BE ON THE TEAM!!! he was asked and he declined..... nice to see how patriotic a beloved celtic is ....pfffft

Answer 5

i know that KG was asked but he said he didnt want to.. and its not just about the best players, you have to try to put together the best team.. I think an interesting thing to do would be to have whoever won the NBA Championship be concidered the USA team. I mean they will play well together, know how each other play etc. but that would never ever happen so..

Answer 6

wait why didnt anyone mention that Chancey Billups ISNT on the Olympic team???

he is not

the PG's are Kidd, Paul, and Williams

Answer 7

because he's an unpatriotic loser!!! who isn't needed.

Answer 8

BECAUSWE THEY ARE IDIOTS, THEY DONT KNOW WHAT IS USA PRIDE ALL ABOUT, THEY DONT KNOW THE MEANING OF ' UNITED WE STAND'

Answer 9

BECAUSE THERE NO GOOD!!THAT'S WHY!!

Answer 10

garnett was asked and prince is one of the best defenders billups is the most clutch PG in the game. Carter and J Rich arent needed when u have lebron kobe and redd on your team

Answer 11

Kevin Garnett defineltly should be, but I think it's cuz he just not someone that when u say NBA, that you think of on the of your head or maybe he was asked to but just didnt want to.
