What's crazy about that team that won the bronze is that team could have been easily up there with the dream team. Think about it Kobe,Garnett,shaq, Vince carter,Ray Allen all in their prime were not in that team

Yea, at least he has those. Tim Duncan still only has that Bronze.



But the corpse of Tim Duncan has a PER of 18!1!!!! 18 people!!!!




To me that's a big blemish on Duncan's career. He vowed never to play international ball again after that. Disappointing would have loved to see him seek revenge.

I make fun of Lebron with it too, but he was just a baby at the time

So they don't serve curry in the NBA Finals.

No more curry at Gaggan (http://www.theworlds50best.com/asia/en/2016-The-List/1-10/Gaggan.html).

And now no curry in the Olympics?

What is the anti-curry movement going on here...

Westbrook out.
Wouldn't be surprised if a couple more names drop out....could be most vulnerable Team USA since 2004.

I doubt the virus affects Curry's decision, he makes offseason trips to impoverished countries every year. He donates 3 mosquito nets for each 3 pointer he makes.


guess we will never know, i can't see it not being in his head at least a bit.

Playing in the Olympics is akin to a Harlem Globetrotters exhibition.

We do know that the chance of disease in impoverished countries hasn't deterred him in the past. I think we can make an educated assumption

This is going to be a weak Olympic team if LeBron drops out. We'll still get the gold though.

Exactly! If it was so easy why did he come back holding that L?

The loss is bad, but what's worse for me is the I'm going to cry and take my ball home response. Dude should have come back in 2008 and wrecked shop
