Would you be surprised if USA mens basketball won gold? - GoFuckYourself.com

sickkittens · 08-26-2004, 12:53 PM

It seems like it will be a task now to win it. Are you expecting them not to win gold?

impulseSD · 08-26-2004, 12:54 PM

They won't win the gold.

Basic_man · 08-26-2004, 12:55 PM

Go USA Go !

Corleone · 08-26-2004, 12:56 PM

the usa - spain game was great... if they play as a team they can win..

sickkittens · 08-26-2004, 12:56 PM

Poor Spain. They go 5-0 and lose in the quarter finals.

Sosa · 08-26-2004, 12:58 PM

I wont' be suprised. Give em time and they can play decent.

sickkittens · 08-26-2004, 01:00 PM

Anyone know if the Greece/Argentina game is on tv now? It says CNBC but it's not on there.

not really. even though they havent been great so far they still have good players and a good shot at the gold.

Goatse · 08-26-2004, 02:15 PM

They have two huge games coming up in the next two days. I don't see them pulling it off. Lithuania should win it all.

Lithuania will win the gold.

They are showing the best european basketball.
NBA players can play only 1on1 or 2on2... they dont know how to attack on zone deffence at all.

basketball is a perfect teamwork game...

erehwon · 08-26-2004, 02:32 PM

The only way the U.S.A. will win the Gold would be if the rest of the teams had some sort of unfortunate accident, and even still that would be a stretch.

I agree with you 100%

n3in · 08-26-2004, 02:37 PM

i wouldnt be at all surprised if they won it. they're starting to come together and play pretty good.

iFliPcEss · 08-26-2004, 02:58 PM

I wouldn't be surprise at all, coz they are already expecting it rite?

Doctor Dre · 08-26-2004, 06:57 PM

Nop It won't . They still got the most talented team all they need is chimistery .

If kobe and shaq were there they would have won everything already.

MrIzzz · 08-26-2004, 06:57 PM

toooooooooo many egosssss

True. Thing is they have the best coach around and I think this will really help in the end. Plus I think they don't want to be the US team to lose Olympic Gold.

I would be.. a little. It's definitely not a slam dunk anyways.

Vitasoy · 08-27-2004, 12:12 AM

I won't be surprised, cause they certainly got the talent to do so.

They would be remembered as the loosers ... for ever

What's the use of calling them "Dream Team" if they don't win the gld!

Their current roster is certainly not the dream team :p

Dream time was back when MJ was playing

Drake · 08-27-2004, 12:44 AM

I think the US will take it but it will be close and an exciting game to watch!

Shaq would have helped, of course, because he's a monster. But there's nothing Kobe could do against this zone defense. He's not a great outside shooter, and there's no way he could penetrate beyond 10-12 feet against good teams.

That's the thing. Other countries sent "teams"... ours didn't

llew · 08-27-2004, 03:46 AM

The US won against Spain because of the 31 pts from Marbury. I doubt that he can do that again in the next 2 games.
Kobe and Shaq wouldn't help much at all. Kobe would hog the ball all game long and only make 38% of his shots (like the NBA final), and Shaq would be pissed off at Kobe for not passing the ball.
