HAWKS 101

So Team USA comes home with another gold medal in the Olympics for men's basketball. For most of the games it was a cake walk, but it got real at the end when the United States faced Spain for all the marbles. LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Kobe Bryant and company took turns leading the team and there was little doubt who was the best team in these Olympic games. Before the games began there was some debate whether this team would have a shot against the 1992 original "Dream Team," but that talk has since died down. With what we've seen from the rest of the world, maybe the better question would be "How would Team USA fare against the rest of the world?"

If you took the all stars from every country and formed a team, then you could have a team that could beat Team USA. You pick twelve guys out of the 20 from the list and leave comments on how you think the game will go. We are only taking players from the teams that actually qualified for the 2012 Olympic Games.
