Throw in captains LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, the best American player at last year's world championships, and more than half the squad already seems set.

“It’s his time,” USA Basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski said of Bryant. “He’s 27 years old now. He should try to assume a position of leadership in the team. I would think he’s very hungry to do this. I see him fitting in very, very well.”
i can see kidd being another leader, he definately should be. however carmelo anthony was the best performer in the last tourny, and definately held his own on the same team as Kobe, there's no way you can uninclude him as a co-captain.

I see him fitting in very, very well.”meaning , he's still in his prime and he needs to step up his leadership. even with that said, he's still a co-captain with at least Melo who at performed him in the blue/white game. plus even if he was the SOLE captain that's no way to win! the 1992 dream team won because they put egs aside and played as a unitthe 1996 dream team won because they put egos aside( and beefs) and played as a unitthe 2000 dream team won because for the most part they put egoes aside and played as a unitthe 2004 team LOST because too many egoesthe 2006 team was a good starting point for a turn around. the 2008 team will win, because they have a weapon in kobe bryant that can't be stopped, love him or hate him, that's the truth, leadership will be shared though, believe that.
