    that is very true. From the looks of it James is the main captain (i'm basing this on videos in which James is the one motivating his teammates).

    Though Yahoo news says it wasn't very impressive. Anyone know if these games are being aired on US cable channels?

    Espn is probably the only network that will air the US basketball games. And they only air some basketball games. With FIBA championships already starting who knows who shows the games. Just check espn.

    Horrible defense...though their offense made up for it.

    This seems like a pretty easy bracket for the US. I want to see how they do against teams like Germany, Spain & Argentina.

    Judging from exhibition and the 2 games I won't be surprised if they lose one

    I'm old school too. I don't think it is necessary for one team to have more than one captain.

    But it sounds like they didn't do too well against Italy.

    Melo is leading is leading the team in scoring. Dude is stepping up and deserves to be on this team alongside Wade and Lebron. The wins havent been impressive but it doesnt mean team USA isnt any good. It just means that the rest of the world is getting better.
