players like Chris Paul, Greg Oden and Kevin Duarnt or any one who is injured.

Basically, any player can play in the Olympics next year. Remember how they kept adding players when people kept pulling out, such as Collison? Players that were hurt, had personal issues, weren't selected, etc are still eligible. They can add really, whoever they want by a year's time.

Of course they are eligible. You see, the Olympics is a year away and anything can happen between now and 2008. Some guys on the FIBA-Americas roster may get hurt, opt to rest, deal with some personal issues or just plainly get old which would make Paul, Oden, Durant and - you might've forgotten - Dwyane Wade available for the team. As it is though, I like the present roster and if the '08 Games are played now the U.S. will get the gold back.

Each year they pick players all over again, Next year could be a whole different set of 12. However i think They all are going to stay becuz they now there great with each other,
The only thing you might see is miller/redd/deron pull out and get arenas/bosh or paul in
Miller and chandler doesnt seem happy since they play at the end of the 4th q
