Since the NBA Season is over, let's talk about the Team USA Olympic Basketball team. Who should make the team??? Here's my list

ADavis
Bosh
Bron
Chandler
CP3
DHoward
Durant
DWilliams
KLove
Kobe
Melo
Westbrook

I left Wade off the list because of his knee, Rose obviously can't play due to injury....

Who ya'll got???

Move Durant to the 4 instead of Love and swap out love for Davis

Davis would be a defensive force in the middle... altho he'd get limited minutes

DR. JEK · June 2012

Id love to see what the a starting 5 of cp3 kobe, durant, lebron and howard can do with deron and melo leading that bench

rage · June 2012

This is pointless...any combo of the usual suspects will rout any and all competition in the Olympics.

iron man1 · June 2012

Most of those players haven't even decided if their doing it yet and wade an kobe may both get surgeries at some point and d howard is hurt he's out and hopefully durant and westbrook shake off the finals loss alittle bit to regain their focus for the olympic team

MR.CJ · June 2012

ATTS · June 2012

@mr.cj cousins? toooo immature

iron man1 · June 2012

NBA commissioner David Stern has been vague on the league’s motivation for pushing to enter an under-23 team for future Olympics and shifting the sport’s biggest stars to participation in the world championships, but the change of course is largely motivated by financial benefits, league and international sources told Yahoo! Sports.
