Sorry if I took to much of your time.

It wasn't even that close. They shot the ball pretty poorly and still won by 23.

When you play pressure defense and rebound as well as they do you dont have to shoot lights out. Of course NBA guys dont play defense, dont care as much, are strictly playground players, are only there to appease sponsore, etc...

I am going to get this out of the way now as it is pretty clear that I am probably dead wrong about this one. They outclassed Greece like they never have. Even the Dream Teams didn't dominate like this. It is not the medal round yet but they appear to be the rapidly approaching train that is on time to clean house in Bejing. One for the horse trainer is recorded .....

Several interesting things have occured while watching this team. Number 1- Jason Kidd looks old. He may be hurting (he has a bad back) but there is no question that CP and DW are far superior to him now. Number 2- Dwayne Wade looks very good. Back to his 2006 form. Number 3- Chris Bosh is an even better player than I thought he was. His perimeter defense on guards is unbelievable and he is really active on the boards, often tapping the ball and keeping it alive if he cant get the rebound. Number 4- International refs are really bad.

Man, are you remembering the original dream team? They were winning by like 50 points a night. Check out the stats...it will be an interesting comparison when all is said and done.

This team is good but they arent anywhere close to the original dream team from 1992.
