If Team USA fails to win, everyone complains about how they should have dominated the competition by 40 points per game.

No one is happy and thats why they should send the college kids. Let a guy like Calipari coach a team with Beasley, Michael Rose, Hansbrough, O.J. Mayo, etc. At least these kids are coachable, unlike NBA players like Allen “It’s only practice” Iverson. What did his Olympic team do?
that had nothing to do with Allen Iverson, it had to do with Stephon Marbury being the starting PG for the Olympic team. That team was doomed to failure because they had no point guard or even a point forward.
