Kevin Durant withdraws from team usa

In the Spain vs Canada game, each team had a set of brothers.
Spain had the Gasols, while Canada had the Scrubb brothers.

I can't tell if the Scrubb Brothers sounds more like a pro wrestling tag team or a Dixie/Bluegrass band.



I like Spain's chances to win this whole thing, barring a Derrick Rose takeover.

Scrubb Brothers sounds most like a pair of brothers on the Canadian basketball team. I mean, I guess it makes sense that Canada has a team, but I was still a little surprised when I saw that they do.

"Scrubb Brothers" is actually a pretty accurate description of Canadian basketball.

Would expect more withdraws before too long.

Probably based on the suggestion of Bill Simmons, Paul George changing his number to 13 so he can go by PG-13

D Rose sitting out some because of knee soreness.

I wonder what he'll be like in 5 years?

Gilbert Arenas?

I wonder what he will be like this year.
