I agree that Yugoslavia deserved to win last night and that Yugoslavia has some good talent.. But this team the USA put out in this tournament was not the best.
I am not sure but what you are seeing from the NBA players is just an extension of the attitude in the league...
Peter May best desribed it not too long ago as that the US is sending "the most accomodating players, not the best"
Until the NBA players decide they want to play for more than money and stop woorying about their acting and singing careers the US will have a solid team that is competitive but it wont be the best the US has to offer...

You know, in my country we very appreciate NBA. Black players (more of all players) are so good. I saw most of their matches. I don't want to go into their present problems, but I appreciate your opinion. NBA league is representing to us as something we never can beat. That makes our win bigger. For most of Yugoslav people it is not so important to win the championship as to win that black gays from NBA.
Yugoslavia played pretty good against USA, but not the best. You could see what Marko Jaric worked with a ball. He lose five balls in offence. He triped over a line. And then we prayed God to give our team coach much sapience to send him off. But he reversed situation in the end. Our member of national team was so slow, no action, no fast precision passes...
OK, I would like to comment on our next match with New Zeland with you. I hope you will look the game. Until that, Best wishes!
