    How many of you Americans will be rooting for the Argentinian team this year? I know i will and does that make someone unpatriotic? i LOVE rooting for the underdog and the Argentinian team is the obvious underdog compared to the USA this year. and plus they have Manu Ginobili. nuff said right?

    just a question

    I will root for the USA. I will also root for Argentina till they play the USA. If Manu goes for 30-10-6 against the US I will be pissed and wish he could have done that in a couple more of OUR games. If Argentina knocks off the USA I will still root for them to win it all.

    Gotta root for the USA!

    but Team USA better be ready.....Manu will be back, healthy, and pissed !

    I hope Team USA wins, but I hope it's payback time for Manu against Kobe. It was a shame that he wasn't healthy enough to prove all the doubters wrong again and show how good he really is in that Laker series.

    In basketball, I root for both. If they meet, I'll root for the USA but if we get knocked out I am pro-Argentina.

    In matters of international relations, I am unabashedly pro-USA.

    USA all the way....and normally Brazil would be second, but they probably won't even qualify being that Leandro and Nene aren't even playing. While I certainly appreciate Manu's success representing his nation, I'm too disappointed in his recent play with the Spurs in the Conference Finals to give a , injured or not.

    Go Team USA! And screw you Coach K for cutting Bruce, you b!tch.

    I'll be rooting for the USA, but like EJK said, Argentina-USA will be tough. Manu seems to play a lot better with Argentina. A lot of the players on the US team I cannot stand, but it is the name on the front of the jersey, not the back.

    I'm as patriotic as the next guy but F Team USA. The team was basically put together by the Suns. Pop wanted either a head coaching job or an assisting coaching job with the team and they passed him over for Mike D'Antoni. They supposedly wanted a defense perimeter stopper and then cut Bowen.

    My rooting interests will be: 1) Manu staying healthy and not playing many minutes. 2) Argentina winning gold. 3) If Slovenia qualifies, I'd root for them to do well. 4) Team USA getting embarrassed so it's rebuilt ... and this time not with the Suns as the model. 5) Team USA dominating so they can kill the Dream Team concept and stop sending NBA players to these lame national compe ions.

    Of course, Argentina!

    I will be in Argentina the first two weeks of August, therefore I will be rooting for Manulito and the national team.

    I wish USA luck but do they need luck ---they got the best players on the planet. Hopefully, Argentina can come through and win by showing its capabilities as a TEAM!

    They have a solid team since 2003, but most of the french player who play in the nba have not enough playing time and they suck every year with the NT (except TP and Diaw)
