Then, on Argentina, Dirk Nowitzki... the biggest mis macth player in the NBA. If he were a free Agent, he'd get picked up befor anybody on the US Dream Team, except maybe Pierce, and that's a big Maybe, because Dirk is capible of a lot more.
Dirk Nowitzki plays on the German team, not Argentina.

And his name is Peja Stojakovic.

Divac would start over Jermane Oneal, and Peja, well, he's Sacremento's go to outside guy (in the regular season, he was injured when they played the Lakers) and he's the 3 point champion.

First of all, I said MORE than two players

secondly, Divac would NOT start over Jermaine O'Neal...that's bullsh*t

How bout I just say the whole starting line-up? US lost the game, coming off of a loss, period.

Did you even see the game? That was the most raw emotion I have ever seen in a US Olimpic game... US was fired up, and got beat, cut and dry.

FACT: US Got beat twice in a row, yes, a losing streak. Cockyness played a role in the first lost, but in the second game they got beat.

FACT: This is by far the worst US Team. Nobody on the team is used to winning anything.

Any way you look at it, they lost, nothing can change that. They were not the better team those games, They didn't have more talent those games, and that's why they lost those games. Excuses can be made for the first, not the second.

You are joking, right? O'Neal is CRAP. He couldn't be a role player if his life depended on it. He is the first option on his team 19 pts, 10 Reb, 2 Blocks and 1 assist? Going against Divac, the 4th option on his team 11 pts, 9 rebs, 4ast, 1 Block, and 1 steal per game... and he's a center with a .231 3 point percentage...

It may not be obvious to people who don't play Basketball, but Divac is a lot better. Match them both up with Shaq, who had more sucsess? Divac. Webber couldn't even challenge Shaq like Divac.

Yes, I found out yesterday, but didn't want to edit that post, since I thought nobody was paying attention. I also just meant to correct his last name, I said Peja because Perfect Stu had said it.

I feel sooo stupid...
