It sucks, but it is about time. American style basketball sucks. It is too slow and tedious. International rules are much more competitive, fierce, fast, and harder to play. The other nations have figured this out, and now can finally beat us. Our playrs don't suck, it is just that everyone else has become much better at playing a sport that was invented in our own country. Next Olympics, we'll have outside shooting and a better understanding of the game. We'll be the champs again.
