Everyone's prayers are answered.

Now replace him with a legit big that can actually block a shot and get rebounds.

Two things it still surprises me people watch: NFL Pro Bowls and USA Basketball since the "Dream Team" came along.

The only Olympic sport worth watching is Golf.

Outside of the USA golfers to watch, the Koreans are trying to skip military service if they medal in this year's games

I have never in my life hoped for a Team USA in any sport to lose…until now.

No. I want to watch the Olympics. Track and Field, boxing, swimming, etc.

What I have never watched is NBA players who just sleep-walked through an interminable regular season trounce Trinidad 128-43 because their apparel companies are pressuring them to play. Who cares?

There was only 1 Dream Team. That was the goat team ever assembled in 92. Everything after that was guys riding their coattails.

They're both comprised of players who couldn't care less about being there.

We should care less about the sport we’re the best in the world at because we care about them the most?

Joe Vardon @joevardon
Kevin Love withdrew from Team USA, a source confirms (ESPN first). He is citing his calf injury from the NBA season, which allows the Americans to replace him. He barely played in two exhibition games and struggled mightily in camp. More to come @TheAthleticNBA

So how did he make the team?
