yup. They kicked ass. I loved an interview I saw on TV with an Argentinian concerning the Dream Team. He gave them credit for having the best players in the world but then he says "This a team sport you know, this no Tennis" I laughed my ass off. It was awesome hearing that in his accent.

Exactly.

I give the Dream Team some credit for going out there and trying.

On the other hand, the NBA is pathetic. They did a horrible job with the recruiting and couldn't get better players out there.

Everybody need to stop blaming the players and put some blame on the NBA.

I give them credit for trying but the point is that not a one of them could hang around for the closing ceremonies. It would've been nice to see at least one of our super star basketball players participating in the closing. I won't be looking forward to the US in international basketball next time unless some serious changes are imposed.

I definitely agree that some changes need to be imposed by the people that are in charge.
