15 more days to go! :)
sucks I'll barely be watching any of the games live since it will be in Japan
I'd have to say the US has to be the favorites since their roster is stacked plus having a team first coach doesn't hurt in Coach K |

I'm loving Lebron acting like he actually CARES...
the Arenas, James, DWade trio alone has to make them overwhelming favorites.... they're playing excellent defense tonite....
they're young, but actually seem to have good chemistry so far... |

i heard Bruce Bowen is going to teach his defensive mechanism art skills in multiple languages soon. :wtf:
but i really like a lineup of areans, wade, and lebron on the floor at the same time. areans can play the offense more, and wade and lebron can setup areans easily with good swipes and setting up the defense properly to get an easy offensive score. |

Spain has the 2nd strongest interior game of the tournament: 1st, USA, for sure.
And the problem will be if we play against the americans, because we cannot make 20 3-pointers in a game like Italy or Lithuania. That scenario happened in Athens 2004: we won every game (including Argentina), but we took USA in the bracket, and we were eliminated.
If Spain doesn't have to play against USA until the final, we can take a medal easily. |

scratch Amare from the USA roster. May be better for him, because he needs to heal the knee.
as for Yao and China, Yao is still on the borderline if he competes depending on this foot. |

US barely beat Brazil 90-86
Doesn't seem like that Carmelo's injury is that serious |
