from the news reports that i have read, the U.S. basketball team will have until july 8th to name their roster and training camp begins on the 6th. i was going over the list and that team is extremely short on centers. with the injuries to chris bosh, aldridge, and now anthony davis, team USA is stuck with griffin (still recovering from playoff injury) and odom (still nursing his sore vagina). the only stable backup to tyson chandler will be kevin love.
should the U.S. basketball team extend a last minute invitation to tim duncan? a gold medal would make his resume complete. duncan will probably only be used moderately so it's a chance for him to have some fun and finally get his gold medal. parker and ginobili are already going to play for their national teams, why shouldn't duncan? it's not like the spurs have much hope in winning a championship next year. duncan might as well get some more shiny hardware near the end of his career.
what's even more funny is that the U.S. has been placed in the same group as Argentina and France. parker/ginobili/duncan will all be in the same group.
