    I hope he does, he's what really brings the words heart, effort, blood, sweat and tears in every aspect of the game. He'd really give everyone a hard time and put on a real show, a real pionerr of Team USA.

    I don't know if I want him to. I want him to get some rest during the summer, but it is also good to get a lot of practice in. But it would make it more interesting to see him in it.

    I hope he does but a part of me doesn't.KG could rest in the summer,if he doesn't play but if he does, he could get a gold medal and practice.But theres a risk that he might get injured.Alot of teams forbid their players to play because they might get injured.
    But its Kevin's choice.

    I hope he plays. He is a big addition to the team and I want to see them win this year. Last year was a dissappointment.

    I want KG to get a rest as well, but I think he will try to win gold again. Now, it'd be really cool if Cassell makes it as well.

    Why in the hell wouldnt you want him to go? Yea I understand if he goes he risks more chance of an injury.... but since when has Garnett been injury prone (knock on wood)? Id really like to see him get that gold medal again... the team would pretty much be unbeatable.... Oh yea and I want to get a USA Garnett. [​IMG]

    I would want to see him go to Athens. He has already proven that he can dominate the NBA. Why not dominate the rest of the world for a couple more?

    I'd love to see him go with team USA. He'll be a great aset to the team. besides he'll dominate the world like he does in the NBA.

    hed be a great ambassador of the game to the world. Hes a humble, honest, hard working guy that is all about the game when hes on the court. hed represent the league differently from the showoffs like vince or the thugs like AI. not to mention itd be awesome seeing him school the entire world with his killer pump fake spinning fadeaway [​IMG]
