Man those guys are fun to watch, good passing, good energy, good three point shooting. They looked like the Globetrotters vs. the Generals at times. I bet their conversations with one another are hillarious. I picture Borat and Crocodile Dundee and Inspector Clouseau having a discussion.
Who knew Euro-style ball would work in the NBA?

Euro tactics made scrub players beat the Dream Team in 2002,2004 and 2006.. Pop probably thought "If scrub players can beat Dream Team with these tactics, what will happen when applied to NBA caliber players?" BAM!

To be fair, the 2002/2004/2006 squads were a result of the USA getting too complacent in international ball. Manu was balling especially in Athens.

Most NBA players are complacent, too.

And if you believe half this forum, Manu counts too. :lol
What's amazing ATM IMO is that the team plays 48 minutes of intense ball without anyone playing too much.

and also because Europe developed a really intelligent tactical game to make up for their lack of athleticism and talent.. and some of those aspects were imported to NBA, eventhough only Spurs actually fully embrace them, with an American touch (coach Pop is a fan of Obradovic and others)
Still, in the end of the day, the level of the players are the deciding factor

Scola is missing. Good friend with Manu & Tiago. He even named his son after Splitter.
