AI, LeBron and Stoudamire all were late for a team meeting and got benched for the 1st game.

The US were struggling for a patch because they are playing with only 1 guard for much of the game. Dwayne Wade apparantly handed out 8 assists, many of which were alleyoops and no look passes.

Looking forward to the US v Australia matchup in the Olympics.
