    The game starts at 11:00 tonight on ESPN2. Post all game discussion or predictions in this thread.

    I think Elton Brand, Dwight Howard, and Dwyane Wade are all going to have big games. USA wins with ease.

    What do you guys think of the starting lineup tonight?

    PG - Chris Paul
    SG - Dwyane Wade
    SF - LeBron James
    PF - Carmelo Anthony
    C - Chris Bosh

    The changes from the first game are Melo for Jamison and Bosh for Howard.

    Carmelo's done some damage to Puerto Rico, but they've been able to keep up with the USA team. Can't wait to see Gilbert Arenas play. [​IMG]

    The guys that came in the 2nd quarter played great defense. Arenas and Brand did good on the offensive and defensive end.

    USA definatly started slow and in the 2nd quarter went into a flow. Great hustle by Arenas and Brand on the defensive end.

    Kirk Hinrich was a liability but he did have his moments on the run to comeback.

    Man, Bosh is terrible. Definently doesn't deserve to start over Howard. Why is he shooting threes?

    Yeah but in the beginning of the game, we don't three pointers, especially from our big men.
