    How is gonna play Usa vs Spain? 4 wings? PArsons defending Pau and Davis Marc?
    Are them the favourites playing like that?

    I doubt it, they still have at least the 4 most talented players in the tournament and idk how anyone will be able to stop rose/curry/harden

    Spain is the worst fit for them, but Spain could be eliminated easier than USA before the finals.

    I ask myself how is Coach K facing that hypothetic game... What I questioned, basically, are you going to maintain your initial idea of playing with 4 wings against spanish frontcourt? That idea could be sustained with Paul George and Durant in your roster, but with Parsons, Derozan, Hayward? They brought Gay so I guess it means they are staying with that same philosophy. But I could see Spain throwing balls inside and forcing the US to play with a more standard lineup with 2 bigs, what it would mean to change all team dynamics at the final key game against homecourt advantage.

    Cousins could really be the surprising X factor for USA.

    This will be a great opportunity for Harden to show his leadership. Probably the best possible outcome for him individually as he is now one of the top 3 players on the team. Although I'm sorry for George, these games will be much more entertaining with Harden in a more focused role.

    Spain is big, but their perimeter defense is gonna be shredded by a starting lineup of rose, curry and harden

    That was a great opportunity for Parsons to give Harden bunny ears.
