We lost!

NCAA ball has suffered just as much in terms of quality of play as the NBA, if not more. How bored would a late '80's Duke or UNLV team be playing today's colleges? They'd be winning by like 80 points.

BTW, whatever happened to Moses Scurry?

The International game is so much different than NBA ball. The big inside players are rarely effective because the defense can just pack it in and deny the ball. The selection committee for the US hasn't realized this since the 92 team. There are plenty of american ball players who can shoot, they just aren't typically the high profile players, and many of them decided not to play.

How about the Argentina vs. S/M game? Ginobili was asked what the plan was for that final play. "We had no plan. Just do whatever."

I like the NBA style of play. Watching the International game would be a bit dull if it wasn't for the Olympic suspense.

What is S/M?

I can only think of one meaning and it has nothing to do with basketball.

The NBA style of play is fine if you like it, but I would be willing to bet most poeple who played baketball in high school or college do not like to watch the NBA. The league sacrifices the fundamentals to try and make the game more entertaining. I believe they have went too far and allow too much slack. I mean come on these guys are "pros" and they can't even obey the most basic rules of the game.
