IMO, Rondo should have made the team instead of Kidd.

Let Paul and Williams be the main two PG's and let Rondo get some time in as well especially if he plays like he did in the Finals.

I mean it's a good team and no one in their right mind should complain because they don't have 50 million superstars on that team. That's the problem they've in the recent Olympics is that they tried to pack them with the best American players trying to recapture what the Dream Team had, but no one can replace guys like Bird, Jordan, and Johnson because those guys were all team players and knew what it took to win games.

Especially with the evolution of the foreign teams, the American teams need to focus on the complete package and not just A+ talent.

If you switched Boozer for Garnett, this team would have been almost perfect.
