^^^^ they almost lost in 08 against Spain and the same team minus Kobe lost in 06 against Greece and B/C teams as you said get owned in 02 and 04 for a total of 7 losses .... FIBA B-Ball is more about pure b-ball skills than athleticism ... when you take most of the later from the US players , there isn't too much left for some NBA superstars ala James and Wade ...
lol, who cares? They aren't beating:Chris Paul/Derrick RoseKobe Bryant/Dwayne WadeLeBron James/Kevin DurantAmare Stoudamire/Chris BoshDwight HowardThat's the USA elite. I could probably make a B & C team that would win too.
^^^^ I meant USA have to send their very best players and work as a team to win it all now ... they can't throw a bunch of players together ala All Star game as they used to do 10+ years ago ... and the 08 Finals against Spain was a loss if it wasn't for Kobe coming through in the clutch .. withdraw Durant ( and with Kobe aging) from this team and I bet you Spain beat the roster Cham named in 2012 ... the Gasol brothers (with Marc being 10 times the player he was in 2008) and Ibaka is a better interior rotation than 29 out of 30 NBA teams .And yep Team USA lost 8 times since 2002 :( Argentina twice , Lithuania, Spain , Italy , Serbia, Greece) and ... Porto Rico (LMFAO)

That's why you have Euro's on here who reguarly check for the NBA & root for the Lakers.

people outside of America do, obviously. and most people on this board are not from the US, hence it's likely to interest at least a few people here and it seemingly does. i understand you don't care though.
