    Kidd has been lucky so far. I predict his three pt shooting will soon come back to his career averages.
    Even if it does, it's still higher than Harris'.

    America still has the greatest basketball players, they're far superior, and the rules have to be adjusted to give the other countries a chance. That's how it is.

    This is an AMERICAN SPORT invented by an AMERICAN and if you don't like it you can GET OUT OF AMERICA!



    Oh wait Naismith was a Canadian. !

    Then how come Dream Team I and II are put together fast sign autograph and play under same rules and have no problem? No chance that perhaps Americans live in dream world and refuse admit there players are no longer so good as once were?

    No cannot be must be because of "refs" even though it same refs as before

    Dream Team I and II were the best teams ever assembled on the planet. No USA team today could beat those old teams. Plus you can't even get our best players to represent the USA today cause most NBA Superstars don't want to risk their careers to play in a meaningless Olympic series. Pansies all of them.

    In fact, where is Tim Duncan and Shaq??? Being wussies that's what. They both got invited to join Team USA and they both wussed out.

    1992 Forum. The rest of the world has done a good job of closing the gap between the US and themselves. I didnt say anything about the refs. It's pretty simple: the US would win under NBA rules and they are on an uphill climb under FIBA rules.

    But seriously, yes the rest of the world has caught up to America. while it's arrogant to think that the US should win every international game by 40+ points, i still say the US has the best players and oughta win a gold medal every time.

    And FIBA and their ty refs and Anti-American bias don't help.

    Yet everyone Euro player would kill to be in the NBA. I wonder why.
    There are many players of Europe who never came to NBA that are comparabel with some of best ever NBA players. American fans not know players like Belov or Galis. Galis is not even consider best European player by most Americans they always name Sabonis or Petrovic or Schmidt or players such as these. It same thing not know anything about some of game in Europe.

    Galis is Greek American he born in New Jersey and play at Seton Hall. NBA say he not good enough for them because he 6-0 shoot guard and he not like play point guard same type of player like Iverson. You see Galis play you understand how stupid NBA teams can be. They not want such player? He is most unable to be stop by defense scorer you can imagine. He is unreal scorer. Only player I see can be compare to his scoring is maybe Jordan and still I think Galis better scorer. NBA teams not even want him.

    NBA is all run and jump and no brain. This how player like Nash which is small no athletic ability not so fast not good jumper not good defense can be 2 time MVP of NBA because he have actual brain, good brain and smart player and compete against re s.

    fact of the matter is this:

    in dallas, Harris was not a good fit for Avery's system (square peg vs. round hole)

    in NJ, Kidd was playing in an offense that was built around his strengths.

    ...and Harris was STILL having a better year than Kidd when Dallas made the deal.

    LOL...well there is that deal where Stern said no more bling bling and all NBA players gotta wear suits. Guess that means there's an anti hip hop culture going on with top management. So the answer? Bring in all the Euro's. wow now we got white basketball players again.

    Nash is a terrific athlete. WTF are you talking about? Just because he doesn't play above the rim doesn't mean he's slow, uncoordinated and unskilled.

    Truth is Spanoulis is much better player than Kidd is. There is some point guard in NBA I maybe say better than Spanoulis is now like Nash, Williams of Utah because Spanoulis do not have time play against better athlete players of NBA and this is where he have weakness only be solve by get time against better athlete players.

    Spanoulis is better player at this time than Kidd is by easy amount.

    Right, which is why V-Span couldnt get off the bench in Houston and whined like a about it. And San Antonio couldn't find a use for him either when TP's backup is Jacque Vaughan.

    USA Basketball of the home grown variety doesn't value passing, shooting and dribbling fundamentals much anymore. If anything, the kids skills have gotten worse coming out of high school with their fundamentals. All they see is highlight reels on sportscenter of guys dunking the ball. So what you get are players that are focused on dunking the ball. They can't shoot the long ball. The ball handling isn't as good as what it used to be.

    Are there any guys better today than Magic, Bird or even cough Isiah Thomas?

    Can you say Van Gundy? The same guy who butted heads with Bonzi Wells all season long and didn't give him any playing time?

    Actually he wasn't hurt. He could play. He also benched Cuttino Mobley once for something stupid and put him on the injured reserved list "strained left buttock" In other words strained left ass cheek.

    Ahh the famous JVG doghouse.

    Please, Spanoulis can't even step on the court in an NBA game. It's not even an arguement about who is the better player, fact is Spanoulis couldn't even get backup minutes. The best players get to play, simple as that, and V-Span wasn't good enough to play at this level.
