Nothing. They're getting slaughtered by Puerto Rico right now... I just don't think they can make it.

This group of spoiled millionaires are a joke. They lose to Puerto Rico, and these are supposed to be a group of professionals. 27 points in the first half. What a joke.

All in all I think we'll get a medal, after all we beat Puerto Rico many times in the past year, this game was more of an exception than the rule. Obviously we're not as invicible as we were in the MJ-Barkley-Magic / whomever years, but we're still pretty dominant when our shooting is decent - which really depends, even in the latest rounds we've usually been above 500, except for the losses to Italy and now Puerto Rico, I think.

The Dream Team was the name given to the team on the first year NBA players were eligible to compete (I think in '92), and its stuck with US Basketball all-pro teams ever since.

Great point. I would have said some wacky Greek social disease like Gon-o-ka-ka-khackus that they picked up from the toilet seat.

most Americans call our BasketBall team "DreamTeam"

I assume we shall stop calling them that...

As far as I a am concerned...Argentina is more of a dream team...in Football
