Team USA becomes the "Redeem Team"

Team USA will try to redeem themselves in this summer's Olympic Games in Beijing after a bronze medal finish in the 2004 Athens Games. The team is headlined by the usual NBA All-Stars, but this year's team is headed by Duke's Coach K with a team first approach. Here's the players' view on how they will compete against the best in the world and redeem the USA's basketball reputation in the Games. How do you think this group will do?

Hopefully with this new approach they will be more adept at dealing with the international style of play and not just rely on their athletic advantage.

We can't have the selfish players like the days of old. The international game needs to be understood and no more showboating (Kobe).

Do you think they finally get it? I hope so, because they've had plenty of experiences to let them know that they can't just walk into the Olympics and win the gold.

One can only hope so!!

I think "Redeem Team" could really catch on. Did you coin that?
