The NBA is the most popular league in the basketball world. Now some of their stars have gone to Beijing,China to fight for their pride and most especially in bringing back the gold to their country's honor. But could they possibly accomplish it? Could this all-star team be enough to beat the odds? I believe that in order for them to accomplish such, they need to play not as individual stars but as a team reaching for a single star which is the gold medal.

Well they won the gold which most people thought they would. And it was a pretty close game with spain coming in with 4 points in the fourth quarter. So I think they met everyones expectation if they lost this game I think most people would of called there run this year a faliure including them since they wanted the gold so bad. Yeah I thought it was pretty good game was close till the end. It was the only game that I watched because of the timee couldnt stay up to 4 during the weekdays.

Team USA will finally win gold and kill their opponents by at least fifteen every game. They have been training together for almost two years now and they are starting to become a team. Mike (the coach) is doing a great job training them that they cannot win by themselves but by playing as a whole team. You can tell they have been training very hard by looking at their exibition games so far. The main reason is probably because of their three great point guards of Jason Kidd, Chris Paul, And Deron Williams. All three of them can rack up assists easily and they are both not afraid to shoot the ball. Team USA will pull it through and finally win the gold medal!!
