Team USA Basketball is an amalgam of political correctness. Simply put, White Basketball players need not apply. Get used to the idea that Europeans or Africans will continue to beat Team USA.
I wish it were as easy as 'There aren't enough white players.' It's deeper than that. It's the playground mentality and the players' emphasis on Jordanian flash (rather than Jordanian dedication to constant improvement) that has brought the level of play in the NBA down to its lowest level since the days of the narrow lane and the set shot.
Get used to the idea that Europeans or Africans will continue to beat Team USA.
I don't believe the USA has ever lost to an African team, just Europeans, South Americans, and now, those from Caribbean U.S. Commonwealths!
