Youth Team
I don't know if there was a thread already started on this, but I just wanted to discuss Olympic Basketball.
Saturday is Team USA's first exhibition game (Against Puerto Rico on ESPN) and I must admit the team is looking good:
Allen Iverson - G
Stephon Marbury - G
Dwayne Wade - G
Carlos Boozer - F/C
Carmelo Anthony - F
LeBron James - G
Emaka Okafor - F
Shawn Marion - F
Amare Stoudemire - F
Tim Duncan - C
Lamar Odom - F
Richard Jefferson - F
Although we're not anywhere as good as the Dream Team or anything, I think this squad is much better than the World Championship team that lost a few years ago and I like the fact that it is mostly the young guys. It'll be awesome to see Wade, Melo, and LBJ on the court at the same time and I agree with Carmelo Anthony when he said ''We're guaranteeing a gold medal."
Here are the Captains:
