2008 U.S. hoops team begins quest for gold

Go USA!!! Bring home the gold!!!!

This is the best team team USA has had since 96. We all kind of felt going in that the 04 team was vulnerable, that fear turned out to be justified. And again many are saying that this team doesn't have enough size, but I'll take talent over size any day. The starting five of Howard Anthony James Kobe and Kidd are going to be devastating, a much better group than the team that included Okafor (not even a rookie yet) Marbury Jefferson three rookies and no shooters. With Redd, Kobe Williams,an improved James Anthony and Wade this team can shoot light out.

We have the best player representing the US in a long time. I know that they canbring home the Gold Medal. With Jason Kidd, Kobe Bryant, Lebron James and especially my favorite player Deron Williams I Know that this is going to be an awsome team. Wishing you guys the best and I will be watching.
