Can the Men's USA Basketball team be stopped?

Based purely off the performance in the Olympic Exhibition games, then no. But with the London Summer Olympics beginning in only 5 days, it doesn't look like much will change. The 2012 team is filled with numerous elite guards including: Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul, and Deron Williams. The team also has the trio of LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Kevin Durant. Now you ask, "How can a team with all those players POSSIBLY lose?". But what Team USA lacks this year is at the center position with only one true center in Tyson Chandler. This become a problem against Spain's National Team as they have the 6'10" Spanish-Congolese blocking machine named Serge Ibaka and both of the Gasol brothers. The USA has a very high chance to earn the Gold once again this year, but they will have to overcome this small hump and defeat the Spanish to rightfully be called the World Champions.
                                       

Where will Dwight go?

By now fans are more than likely tired about hearing of Dwight Howard's shenanigans and the whole drama behind him this year, but that does not disregard the fact that any team Howard joins becomes instantly better. The question is which team, and how much better can they really get? As of today's date there are 3 main teams that in the race to acquire this athletic center: the LA Lakers, Brooklyn Nets, and the Houston Rockets. At first, he wanted to join the forces of superstar point guard Deron Williams and roll with the Brooklyn Nets, but he has constantly been changing his mind on which team to choose. In Mid-July [2012] Howard visited LA and was warming up to the fact of playing in LA. But in the end it is not Dwight Howard who makes the decision, but the Orlando Management.
