It's getting close to real games. For team USA. It seems like at great on the Olympics makes sense.
I know some people don't think this team USA is all that but I think it's plenty good. For one thing I have a feeling that there will be plenty of international teams that have a problem with both Deandre Jordan and Cousins. The level of skill and athletic ability that team USA brings in this squad is tough to deal with. The guards are still really good. You have guys that can play 3 positions. I think some international teams will have a tough time guarding a guy like Detozan when he plays. In addition some teams have some player out. If Spain had Marc Gasol that would make things a lot more interesting and that's still a pretty good team but I think team USA does their thing.
It will be interesting to see how some guys that are new to the NBA like Alex Abrines perform in the Olympic stage. Who earns themself a contract out of these games? I bet someone will get signed afterwards to some kind of a deal with some team.
