I was hoping this would happen!!!

See what happens when you get too full of yourself? You become an embrassment.

Bad omen
Italy hands men's Olympic team worst loss since NBA players allowed

COLOGNE, Germany (AP) -- The U.S. men's Olympic team did more than merely lose. It was embarrassed and exposed like never before in international competition.

Losing an exhibition game for the first time when using NBA players, the Americans were completely outclassed by lightly regarded Italy, never even making it close in the fourth quarter of a 95-78 upset Tuesday.

The Americans were sloppy with the ball and couldn't handle Italy's zone defenses and 3-point shooting. Italy not only made 15 from behind the arc but also showed superior ball movement and poise in handing the Americans their most lopsided defeat since pros began competing in 1992.

"They're going to be in for a lot of lessons for the next few weeks," U.S. coach Larry Brown said. "It's a young team, and it's a different game internationally."

Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony led the Americans with 17 points, and two-time NBA MVP Tim Duncan added 15.

Italy, whose roster is filled entirely by players from that country's league, was led by Giacomo Galanda's 28 points and Gianluca Basile's 25.


While I am all for the USA Men's Basketball Team to win. They needed to be taught to be less arrogant.

Having a bunch of all-star players doesn't make a team...A group of people that play the game together very well makes a team...

...hmm, seems a little familiar...Soviet Union crushing the NHL all-stars 11-2 i believe back in 1980?

The team is still getting to know each other. They have to realize that they are no longer all-stars. They need to pay attention to the name on the front of the jersey, not the back. Coach Brown is the man to do that. I bet the USA comes home with another gold, but not without a fight. You saw the age, 23.5, they have to grow up quick.

o well, it was just an exhibition..had no meaning at all.

it also helps the cause when your team sinks 15 of 34 3 pointers. not much you can do about that.

It's all a ruse.....they lost on purpose.....nothing like instilling a little bit of false hope in the other team.....

Italy had a HOTT game, for sure. They were draining 3s left and right. Not to mention their zone D. USA wasn't expecting this and underestimated Italy. That's all. USA has a really good team, just need some time to work on plays. They got Melo, Lebron, Duncan, Boozer, Jefferson, AI, Odom -- pretty nice players. Wait and see, I still have high hopes.

Yes he would because Larry Clown is a moron and has no idea what he is doing. My proof is the Sixers. He destoryed our team because hes a dumb goon.
