Is Kevin Pangos in the mix? Great underrated PG (not underrated in Europe).

I have a feeling Clarke is gonna lap a lot of those bigs.

Seems like we are weak on the wing in terms of depth. Depending on how the six draftees pan out maybe we add one at each general area.

Guards: Murray, SGA, Cojo, NAW
Wings: Barrett, Wiggins, Brooks, Iggy/Shayok
Bigs: Olynyk, Powell, Thompson, Clarke

Murray , Cojo , Brady Heslip , Philip Scrubb ( the last two should have FIBA experience and should be rewarded for help qualifying ) and last hate to say it but
Nik Stalkas ( his shooting would be good )

Wiggins , Barrett , Brooks , Melvin Ejim

Olynyk, Powell, Thompson, Clarke , Boucher , and maybe Joel Anthony for veteran presents .

My idea is you can't just have NBA players and you have to reward some guys who got you there .

I do think Ignas "Iggy" Brazdeikis is made to play FIBA basketball and so he could take Boucher or Joel's spots .

Can we say that Murray is the must have to be on the roster out of all mentioned ..

The former FIBA players got us nowhere. Time to field an all NBA squad and if not, the non NBA guys better be crushing it wherever else they're playing. We don't need to reward anyone for anything, we're trying to qualify for the Olympics, not a little league team handing out participation trophies.

Most of our NBA players played for the national team at some time in their life, so I think everyone has paid their dues, let's field the most talented best team possible.

Thank you. I should have known that. You've probably told me before.

Holly crap after a very close 3 quarters France all of a sudden took 62-51 lead ... My Canadian negativity broke out and said it's over .. Then I refresh and it's Canada up 69-67 ... It's going to be a who hits the last shot type of game I think .

He gets another shot at the NBA...he's got to take it because it might end up being his last one

It would probably be, so hopefully it works out for him.

Than its Europe or China.

Didn’t know he was hitting the 3 at that clip. Good for him. I’ll be happy for him if he can pull it together.

Yes indeed. One of the weirdest stories in the NBA so far. Would be nice if he can stick.
