You're acting like all the guys invited are actually going to show up
There are guys that may be hesitant to play because of their injury history (Rose, Westbrook and Deron)... Wall will be invited to that player pool tryout breh
i guess we're talking about 2 different things...my bad
im talking about the final olympic team that will be in Rio in 2016.
wall wont be on it

they are building a real team
Starters
Curry
Harden
KD
Bron
Dwight
Bench
Russ
Kyrie
Klay
George
Blake
LMA
Cousins
If Rose comes back well Kyrie is out.
EDIT: Overlooked Love. Swap him out for Cousins. And I'm thinking of Rio.

or cousins in that spot.
Kyrie will be on the team. This is the WC. Most of the guys y'all are talking about aren't even going to play (LeBron, Melo, maybe Harden and so on). The WC is basically the live tryout for young guys trying to earn their way onto the Olympic team. If you play really well (Durant, Love, Westbrook) you can play your way onto the top squad. This team will be mostly young dudes and its going to be very guard-centric.

Deandre Jordan deserves it more than Chandler. He's surpassed Chandler as a rebounder/shot blocker.

Boomer Sooner
Last WC team had dudes like Rudy Gay and Danny Granger on it. Klay has a great shot of making the team.
Whelp...
"Derrick Rose was selected to Team USA's 28-player pool for the next three summers and may play in this summer's World Cup of Basketball.
After Thursday's selection, Rose said, "I'm looking forward to getting back on the court this summer and having the chance to represent our country." While that statement doesn't affect Rose's 2013-14 fantasy season, his dynasty league owners and Bulls management can't like it one bit. It's great to see that he's feeling healthy enough to make statements about potentially playing for Team USA, but a full summer of grueling international competition might not be the best thing in terms of his rehab for the 2014-15 NBA season."
I think the final 12 is gonna be:
PG - Curry & Lillard
SG - Harden, Beal & Thompson
SF - Durant, George & Leonard
PF/C - Aldridge, Love, Davis & Drummond
I could see a crunch time lineup of whoever's hot between Lillard and Curry, George, Durant, Davis and Aldridge.

I dont even wanna see drose trying out for the olympics til he puts in some work for the bulls. so unless he comes back this season for more than the 10 games he played in november, he need to re-think his olympic tryout.
really? wow at him playing more games for team usa then the bulls in the past 2 yearsWhelp...

if i was a bulls fan i would be like fuk this dude but since im a warriors fan
that frontcourt is too small, they need size thats what killed them before
Who would you add and replace then? It's not like there's a lot of bigs to choose from and Noah isn't even in the pool.
