Germany wrapped up an undefeated World Cup by topping Serbia, 83-77, in Sunday’s gold medal game. Team USA, which had been favored to win the gold, left without a medal after falling to Canada in an overtime thriller in the bronze medal contest.
First off Mark Few stinks as a coach in this arena. He lost to several inferior teams way back coaching team USA in the Pan Am games that had Brogdon on it. Steve Kerr was also coaching this squad.
USA players are not the same players we had representing 10 or 20 or 40 years ago. Bird, Magic, Jordan, Robinson, Barkley, Wilkins were all gym rats that would not settle for subpar play especially in these games.
The days these guys just show up and win are over. The foreign players are now passing up the US players for alot of reasons; more heart, drive and more testosterone.
