Would have loved to see W.Matthews on this team. http://espn.go.com/olympics/basketb...rleans-hornets-lance-thomas-added-select-team
You mean Wesley Matthews who plays for the Blazers? Why on Earth would he be considered for the Select Team?
Did you look at the roster?!?!? This isnt the Olympic Team... this is the team that helps train/scrimmage against the US Mens Olympic Team for a few days.
Saying that Wesley Matthews doesn't belong on the select team makes me a hater? Jesus you're ridiculous.
I think Wes would be good to have on the practice squad. He won't back down to anybody. Make the "stars" work hard.
Wes can hang with these guys: Kyrie Irving, Jeremy Lin, John Wall, Kawhi Leonard, DeJuan Blair, DeMarcus Cousins, DeMar DeRozan, Derrick Favors, Gordon Hayward, Paul George, Taj Gibson, Klay Thompson, Greg Stiemsma and Lance Thomas
Yeah you guys are seriously complaining about the possibility of Wes being on that when Lin, DeRozan, Favors, Hayward, and of all people, Lance Thomas and Greg Stiemsma are on it? Come on now. I know people weren't happy with how he played last year, but he's not as bad as you're making him out to be. If NOTHING else, you know he'd push the 1st-teamers to play a lot harder.
Yeah the posted link was about Stiemsma and Thomas being added to the select team.. Who the fuck is Lance Thomas? Wes would be one of the top players on that list.
Thanks! I just love all this draft stuff too much, when things started ramping up I couldn't help it.
Greg Steimsma? ffs, really? Like VanillaGorilla noted, I had no idea who Lance Thomas was. Apparently he played at Duke and had a 10 PER for New Orleans this year?
