    Team USA may have to rely on D-League players

    This is also a problem for Australia. We will be relying on our players in Europe, and some local players.

    European based American players would be another option for Team USA. I reckon it would be a better as they would play team ball as opposed to D-League ratball.

    The article doesn't address why the anti-American change was made, so I can only speculate that it was terrorism.
