You can blame whoever you want. The fact is that USA has control of the rebounds, control of the blocks, control of the steals, which means is the team with the best athlets in the Olympics Games. BUT.. they just cant play basketball against players who can. Out.

7even:
well they'll make it to the quarter finals anyway since their group aint shit... but they prolly finish 6th, 7th or 8th in the end.
Marbury is a disgrace. LeBron should be the starter instead of him.

Trauma-san:
The Americans are losing because the players we have picked are all a bunch of spoiled pussies.  You're right, they have no excuses. 

Montana00:
Thats the problem with an all star team. They all try to play like a 1 man team. Too much ego on one team. By the way there playing, they deserve to lose.

Trauma-san:
Was it 92 when Jordan played? Now THAT was a team.  jordan, Magic, etc.
