I think its because hes known for being a ball hog. The USA basketball team needs a good team playing roster more than ever and Iverson is just not a good enough team player. What do you all think?

I fundamentally agree with your opnion. Although A.Iverson is a good player,his penetration, his layup, his steal is standing up the top of the whole NBA these years, it must be admitted that Allen is not a point guard who has his head screwed on the right way compared with Jason kidd and Chirs Pual. The offensive line-up has already been defined. The main offensive force is from the three 03's play, Leborn James, melo and Wade. On defensive side, Dwight Howard and Kobe is enough as well as the 03's three players can also play a good defense.
So from the disscussion above, Coach K need a point guard who has a wide-field eyeslight and a clam man in the court. Without these qualities, it can be understand why allen iverson is not on the roster.
