Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
Play the passing lanes though ... those arms. He isn't bad when he applies himself. And on a team that doesn't need his energy offensively, he can be better than his average in the league. Originally Posted by andremiller07

Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
Like in the NBA season as a starting lineup? They'd wreck the league no question. If Rose's health is for real and he doesn't get hurt again..they'd push 70 wins. Davis/Cousins alone on a normal team would be scary. Originally Posted by JimmyMcAdocious

That gold seems to be slipping out of their fingers by the day.

Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
Could be a good opportunity for Davis to take on a big role on the team, as Durant himself did in 2010...

Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
I see him playing more of a role closer to what Wade did for the team.
I just don't see him making up for Durant's 3.
in which there's Harden/Curry to a certain extense Irving

Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
We do not have any leaders on the court now. This could be 2004 all over again.

I think the management/coaching is a huge difference now. Originally Posted by JellyBean

Re: Rudy Gay replaces KD on team USA
Gay gets really hated on here. He may not be a top 5 player in the league, but he's certainly no slouch.
That being said, I appreciate the USA trying to build a proper team, but you can't tell me that a guy whose strongest attribute is scoring is a better option than a defensive player when we already have Rose, Irving, Lillard, Cousins, Korver...
Did Iguodala decline? Afflalo? Wiggins? Butler? Stephenson? All would be better fits than Gay.
And, no offense, but spare me the "small ball 4" crap, that none of them could pull off. If Durant, at all of 150 pounds, is listed as a small-ball 4, then we're in trouble. I'd rather have the added weight of the above players than the height of Durant.
