The grand experiment that is the U.S. national team continues, as Coach K
says he wants to push
even harder and hit an even more relentless pace, and the players are buying
in wholeheartedly. Next up is Slovenia,
a dangerous team, and one capable of pulling off a victory.
Slovenia has a number of NBA players, although not top-shelf talent.
Still, if we've learned anything, it's that international ball is not about the
best talent, it's about the best ball movement and execution. Being
Americans, we are ignorant about many countries, but Slovenia
sounds like an intriguing place and diverse geographically and
culturally.
The game is at 6:30 EST, and is on ESPN2.
