i fully understand the position coach k is in having to go out there and actually play the game, lest he be accused of throwing the match. i still completely disagree with fielding a team of nothing but nba superstars solely because of the need to dominate basketball in the olympics.


You say we have NBA players because we "need" to dominate basketball. That is simply wrong. Do you know the reason professionals are allowed in the Olympics in the first place?



yes. to make more money for the olympic games.
