Are you guys @*$%+%# stupid? They almost beat the USA OLYMPIC TEAM in 2008 that featured just about every max paid player in the NBA on the team. And that was with a 17 year old Ricky Rubio running point and when Marc Gasol was still the fat brother of Pau Gasol. It was also without Ibaka. That USA team had Kobe still in his prime, Melo, Bron, Bosh, Dwight Howard, D-Wade, Kidd still playing really good ball, Chris Paul, Deron Williams, and Boozer, Tayshaun and Michael Redd is glue guys......and they still could barely beat that Spain team. Dudes in hear talking about "hmm maybe a pretty decent team if their chemistrys good"........hey dumb *%+, most of those guys have played together since they were damn toddlers. They would destroy the Heat, Bulls, Thunder or any other NBA team. The front court alone of the two Gasols, Ibaka and Reyes would be unstoppable, and then you have one of the best passers in the world in Rubio now 21 years old instead of 18, and very good wingmen in Fernandez, JJ Navarro and Victor Claver. I wish they would put that Spain team in the NBA, kids in the US would actually see how real basketball is played on a normal basis instead of a bunch of Sportscenter highlights.
