Kobe SG
Wade SG
LaBron SF
Kidd PG
Anthony SF
Tayshaun SF
Boozer PF
Bosh PF/C
Howard PF/C
Paul PG
Redd SG/SF
Deron Williams PG

I think the weakness will be in the middle and crashing the boards. Boozer, Bosh and Howard to play 2 positions. They will be in a 3 guard line up a lot or bumping up 2 SF to play PF.

PG - Paul, Deron, Kidd
SG - Kobe, Wade, Redd
SF - Lebron, Melo, Tayshaun
PF - Boozer, Bosh
C - Howard

when you line it up like that, you see just how thin the team is up front, against a lot of other countries who have legit size (like gasol, yao, etc). melo is going to probably have to play a lot at the 4 spot, since i assume lebron will (rightfully) eat up a huge chunk of the SF minutes.

to me the mistake on the team is jason kidd, who should be nowhere near this roster at this point. he shouldnt see a single minute in any game ever unless paul, deron, wade, and kobe are all injured or in foul trouble. hes a defensive liability and, in the international game, an offensive liability since he cant shoot.

in other words, welcome to team usa's sam cassell.

usa couldnt have used someone like marcus camby or tyson chandler instead? even al horford or antawn jamison?
