To differentiate from the British Virgin Islands.

U think they would call him up?

Oops I forgot about Boozer, well he didn't do much all Olympics so I guess thats why I forgot him haha.

What was the reason Amare declined to play anyway?

2010 and 2012 USA can choose 12 of these players which ones do they choose?

Kobe, Lebron, Wade, Derron, CP3, Howard, Bosh, Tyson, Amare, Boozer, Melo, Durrant, Oden, Redd, Prince, West.

Am I forgetting anyone? Do you think USA puts someone young like Beasley on the team for growth?

Mayo, maybe. I could see Horford developing. If Jr Smith ever puts it all together because he was selected to the USA development team.

I was think Mayo, but why have 3 young PG's?

The only reason this team even had 3 PG's was because of Kidd's vet leadership.

Horford fits into that Beasley development role, but I could see him possibly in a few years.

Didn't he decline the chance to play? Well for this past Olympic team at least. Kinda like Shaq, probably worried about international terrorism and stuff.

Think his microfracture surgery from a few years ago kept him from joining at first.

For me it comes very close to watching the US Hockey Team beat the USSR.
