  • matlock, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Sucks for Team USA since he's easily the best clutch 3-point shooter on the current roster. Where's Michael Redd again?
  • callinthelaw69, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There goes the outside shooting unless Carmelo, Lebron, and D-Wade have been really working on it in the off-season...I doubt D-Wade as much cuz he just won the championship, but Carmelo has been working his ass off all summer (and it's shown thus far).
  • HoboMaster, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4You know, I think these comments are more annoying than the "OMG! DUUUPE!!11!!eleventy-one!" comments. This is basically someone saying "first post!" while also proving they're an idiot.
  • powpow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Slugicide, if "This jock-stuff is freaking me out", don't read Sports stories. Some of us enjoy Sports on Digg.
  • powpow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hinrich can shoot from the outside. If they use their incredible athleticism properly, they just might be able to press and outrun the other teams without shooting too much from the perimeter. Risky, but it could work.
  • livinglegend, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Atleast it makes it easier for Coach K to made a decision for the final roster.

    However, It's unfortunate that the main concern for Team USA was its perimiter shooting and it just lost one of the better shooters on the squad.

    Redd would have been a perfect addition for the inadequate outside shooting woes this team is going to face with multiple zone d's opposing teams are going to throw at USA.
  • orsoihaveheard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Arenas was outplayed by Hinrich to back up Paul. I think this injury might just be an exaggeration to avoid having to cut the kid.
  • beardaxe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+013 players now. 12 spots open.

    Gotta feel bad for the one that's gonna get cut.

  • slugicide, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1This jock-stuff is freaking me out. I saw the rss headline and I'm like, "Should I know who this person is? Isn't Team USA a movie?" Now I know it's about a basketball player's crotch...
