Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Derrick Rose picked for USA Select Team

http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Word-on-the-Street-Draft-Day-Rumblings--250-PM-EST--2950/

Being the patriotic website we are, we will start with an exclusive look at the USA Select Team, courtesy of a “piece of paper we found on the floor,” which just happens to have the entire roster, plus the alternates. This is the group of players which could possibly graduate onto the next crop of invites to the USA Men’s Senior National Team, after the Olympics. The players will scrimmage against the senior team this summer to help them prepare for the Olympics in Beijing.

Point Guard: Rodney Stuckey, Derrick Rose
Shooting Guard: Kevin Martin
Small Forward: Andre Iguodala, Jeff Green
Power Forward: Al Horford, Kevin Durant
Center: LaMarcus Aldridge, Al Jefferson

Alternates: O.J. Mayo, Rajon Rondo, Kendrick Perkins, Monta Ellis, Devin Harris

Also invited were Brandon Roy, who will be resting this summer and finishing up his degree at the University of Washington, and David West, who wants to rest after an extremely long season. They will still be in the mix for the future.

 

 

Derrick Rose has been picked to be on the USA Select Team that practices against the USA Basketball team.  Hope he tears em up..

No kidding

right! I hope D Rose goes there and learns a little from CP3 and DWILL so when he gets to us he’s ready to dominate.

Kevin Durant at power forward?

Team USA must be arranging these practices to make themselves feel better about taking so few bigs.

Where's Greg Oden?

With the exception of Horford, there’s NO interior defense there.
