This is the quickest of quickie open threads. I haven't kept up on Team USA news, other than David Lee not participating because of the hammer finger injury. Meanwhile, guys are competing for a roster spot, including Stephen Curry. From what I've read, Curry will be on the White team. Good luck to you, Curry!
Game time:
July 24 - US Blue vs White - 7:00pm PDT - ESPN2
Let's go Curry!

Yeah
I really wish Lee was playing. It would be amazing to see two Warriors wearing that USA jersey.

We get to watch two of GSoM’s favorite SF targets.

He has that Greg Olden disease

there is a disease that makes people look old
Progeria or Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome
now, i wonder if there is a disease that makes people look young(er)
yeah Andy Milonakis has a growth hormone deficiency
and thats why he looks like a kid when he’s really well into his 30s
Being a Warriors fan is like cutting yourself... without the cutting
i was just gonna say...
is it me or is this announcer getting a lot of the calls wrong….or the names at least..

Curry's making the team.

I’ll wear that to Oracle instead of our rec-league uni’s!

Because we have no big men,

Ok, i got it
Curry’s lighter skinned than Rose

Look at all the point guards in this game
Curry looks like the only one making smart decisions and smart plays. What is Rose doing taking it to the hoop when he is challenged a lot, and then he decides to pass when he has an open lay up? A lot of the point guards besides Curry are trying to do too much and are turning it over like crazy.
Team USA will be playing in Turkey, right?
That’s going to be some early day games over here
no idea
i’ve heard next month. I’ll check at halftime
by IQofaWarrior on Jul 24, 2010 7:44 PM PDT up reply actions
We probably will.

Eric Gordon, OJ Mayo, Steph Curry
look like the best choices so far

Yup, home invasion, pointed gun at his wife and locked her in the bathroom

no. just a ball hog.
but i wonder with corey gone, will he share the ball more. and since some of his dishes came from corey, would his assist numbers go done.
hm….
No Corey
But David Lee, DWright, and a (hopefully) healthy Beans.
;-P

I don't think CP3 is thinking about Lacob and Guber when he thinks of the Warriors
by IQofaWarrior on Jul 24, 2010 8:02 PM PDT up reply actions
Explain why CP3 would be interested in who owns the Warriors
by IQofaWarrior on Jul 24, 2010 8:06 PM PDT up reply actions
have anyone ever told you can sound rude?
and a person can be hopeful!
some men just…oh i’ll be nice
i'm not trying to be rude
I’m asking you to explain what would motivate CP3 to join the Warriors because of the owners. How many players join teams because of the owners?
by IQofaWarrior on Jul 24, 2010 8:10 PM PDT up reply actions
yes
if we give up the rest of the team along with him
Would be like lightning striking twice
If we land a 2nd disgruntled NOLA point guard lol!
;-P
by Badly Browned on Jul 24, 2010 8:04 PM PDT up reply actions
Hahahaha
The Golden State Warriors, where disgruntled point guards land
by IQofaWarrior on Jul 24, 2010 8:06 PM PDT up reply actions
if chris paul gets trade for monta
i’ll run to NOLA and carry Chris Paul back to oakland
If FIBA basketball is more physical than the NBA
I’m not sure how Curry will make it.
international game features quite a bit of zone
Curry is definitely one of the best shooters on the roster
;-P
by Badly Browned on Jul 24, 2010 8:12 PM PDT up reply actions
He did
but he’s totally a PF. He’s like 6’9"

lol. i heard.
but i was watching one of matt’s interview. he was asking why with his great numbers, what the team’s record wasn’t good. and david said it’s because he was made to being the c, guarding much bigger guys…
i only recall that because curry block one of david’s shot. (who said curry can’t take on a bigger guy?)
You mean
Once the ball hits the rim, you can swat it out? Then yes

haha
yeah, i’ve been trained to watch for 3 second guys now

Gonna be hard for Curry
Lots of good point guards in the west, well one less if CP3 moves east

This commentator is a ratard
“Westbrook was a shooting guard at UCLA, playing alongside Derek Collison” lol
they're saying a lot of stupid things

Oh yeah, Al Harrington is on the Nuggets now
So we’ll see him a couple more times a season. Are we still booing him when he shows up here?
Wake up curry
You almost got embarrassed by rondo
No one from the Beijing team is gonna play

in the NBA
I think curry would have gotten the foul call for being bumped when landing from that shot
See,
Curry should have declined the Team USA invite, and played in the Summer League instead. Then he could look ilke a super duper hyper star.
this nba style of play aint gonna work in fiba, i know you’ve only had a week but reel em in coach k!
I think if they take 3 SFs
It should be Durant, Iggy and Granger.

That's what I thought
the only SFs I rate ahead of any of those guys in the NBA are LeBron and Melo anyway

i guess the roster is too old.
apparently i was a told the chinesemen aren’t playing.
so no lamarcus too? no carlos either?
Yeah, I guess they got cut early on
or just didn’t come. Lots of players are skipping it. Everyone from 08, actually.

rondo will make the team over westbrook
one of those guys are going home imo because they’re both not good shooters, but rondo’s a better pg and his defense has looked great
Yeah
they bring a lot of the same things to the table, but Rondo is farther along in his development. Well, Westbrook could probably play SG.
