If that's the best play available, Kidd will do it.I would like to see Kidd make that pass to a Loaded Argentinian team in the 4rd down by 2.
And Team USA won't be down in the "4rd" to anybody.
Oh but that's different because he not USCarlos Arroyo was doing the exact same thing when Puerto Rico beat the USA in 04....he was poppin' his jersey and beatin his chest and all that....nobody called it arrogant, it was just showing pride in his team getting a win, especially against the US.

It was enthusiasm. Just like when the Argies had one of their 4 pass, ball doesn't hit the floor, beat everyone down the floor for a layups...which were exciting to watch. Just like an alley-oop dunk is.So tell me what was that pass off the glass from midcourt from Kidd to D.Howard???
kepp that to the Circus rutine,not international tournaments,where YOU KNOW,your playing nobody.

Why should the US change their style just because it is perceived by some to be showy, when it reality, its fun basketball that these players grew up with, much like the Argies grew up with their style.
You're right ArgSpursFan, Team USA should have run the Dean Smith 4-corners once they got bored with throwing down monster dunks on teams.
Yeah, I'm being facetious, but I it's not the Olympics and I guarantee you that Argentina, Brazil or any other team...if they had a 20 or 30 point lead, wouldn't free style and have some fun when they could. Basketball is still a game that is supposed to be fun.
just wait to the Olympics and watch.
You will also learn the bad way like this kids will do.
and I donīt wanna see anyone crying like a le girl them.
No..he would have still ed and dropped the anti-American card.You're right ArgSpursFan, Team USA should have run the Dean Smith 4-corners once they got bored with throwing down monster dunks on teams.

A side question here...
Based on the standings, W/L, etc. it appears to me that the U.S. and Argentina will both finish first and second in the tournment, even if they lose their games tomorrow. Am I correct, or can someone clear this up for me?
So then you are guaranteeing that the US team will not win Gold in Beijing.just wait to the Olympics and watch.

Are you saying that the US team will not win Gold in Beijing?
Its a yes/no question.
Iīm just saying that I donīt need to show off in not important games,when thereīs no one infront of you.
but thatīs ok.they say: big guys sound loader when they fall.
So if an Argentine player has a breakaway dunk against the US...you will be upset.Iīm just saying that I donīt need to show off in not important games,when thereīs no one infront of you.

yeah// we may lose with the A team but NEVER blow out again.. not any more.. it ain't gonna happen... i don't see this new dream team beating Spain or even France...
it won't matter...if the US did win, instead of "Good Game" or "US played well" we would here "they're arrogant"yeah// we may lose with the A team but NEVER blow out again.. not any more.. it ain't gonna happen... i don't see this new dream team beating Spain or even France...
and In S.A. thereīs the best example of:
you donīt need to be spectacular to succed,just play D and make the right choices and stops at the end of the game.
and if the Spurs had some high flyers, you would see them dunk as well.and In S.A. thereīs the best example of:

but they dont.coze they have a smart coach,who reather brings team players,who are winners first and them if thereīs time for fun,they could be spectacular too.
Sinceresly,

So then, exciting, fluid basketball is ok to play, as long as it doesn't offend the Argentines.
It honestly looked to me as if the defensive game plan was to let Scola get whatever he wants because he was the only player that could cause any damage. That was pretty much the way the game went.
One thing is for certain, Scola has zero D. He knows how to foul with the best of them, however. Looks like another Thuguardo Najera type to me. Lots of passion, lots of aggression, lots of fouls, not much production.
Its amazing how much the U.S is regarded as arrogant because they throw down some dunks. Accept you got beat and move on.
According to some of the Argies on this board, dunking is only ok if you are in Sky Blue.Its amazing how much the U.S is regarded as arrogant because they throw down some dunks. Accept you got beat and move on.
