The international game is a different animal than the NBA. It's much more perimeter oriented and hand checking is considered a foul. Also the rest of the world is catching up to the US in basketball, period. Look at how many Europeans are playing in the NBA now.
It's only an exhibition, yes, but without Shaq, Kobe and some other premier players who declined to play, this team will be hard pressed to medal IMO.
