Myles Turner has been playing on the @usabasketball Select team like he should be on the varsity team.

Myles Turner looks fantastic in this scrimmage. Stuffed a Cousins post up, then drained a 3 http://es.pn/2a9TQuf

Also sounded as if Myles Turner has stood out as much as anyone in USA Select team workouts this week.

Spain is the only team that has given us trouble recently. I don't know if it'll be the same because guys like Pau and Marc are getting older. |

I remember when I watched that match up a couple of years back, Spain diffinitely seems to give USA a lot of problem, they also have a lot of good scorers like Rudy Fernandez. |

Remember, the tournament is a one game knockout after the group stages. Even superteams can lose one game, especially against teams with NBA talent.
France, Australia, Brazil, Spain all have NBA talent throughout their starting lineups, while Lithuania and Serbia should never be overlooked. |

NBC has exclusive rights to Olympics broadcasting, and men's basketball is one of the biggest competitions, so I expect it the bigger games and any Team USA games to be on NBC. Some of the group stage stuff will probably be on NBC Sports, MSNBC, etc. |

Agree. Myles Turner has a legitimate chance to be top 2 of his draft.
To me, its
KAT >> Russell > Porzingod > Myles Turner > Booker |

Been bothering me for a minute but who the heck is number 49 on the select team? Never seen that dude before in my life.

B-Scott resorted to bland tough guy quotes as excuses during his entire tenure here. Not surprising at all.
"They were playing scared"
"At some point you gotta show some pride"
"Still young and dumb"
"He's trying to take over, That's not him yet"
"Man up"

The ultimate compliment indeed.
After a rookie season under coach Scott you won't be scared with anything else, you are prepared to run a marathon in the mourning, then fight a tiger before playing a back to back game. |
