What should be the composition of the American Basketball team to win the World Basketball Tournament 2006?

Question

I know the question is outdated. But I still like to know the best answer!!!

Answer 1

i think what is important is team chemistry...one of the reason why other countries manage to beat an nba all star team is that most of them have played together as a team for an extended period of time whereas the usa team is composed of superstars who hardly ever play together....i think if the nba champions were the team representing the usa, the likelihood of success would be much more enhanced and if foreign players are on the team then superstar talent from the rest of the league can be selected to fill their spots on the roster...but it must be noted that in a single game elimination tourney, a far inferior team can always pull an upset by playing beyond expectations and this was clearly illustrated by the play of greece when they knocked off usa in the semis...this same greek team were then slaughtered by spain in the finals...spain in the semis barely squeaked by argentina and lost its best player (pau gasol) in the process...usa then handled argentina easily to capture the bronze
