Yes: Irving, Curry, Lillard, Harden, Derozan, Thompson, Durant, George, Faried, Millsap, Davis, Drummond
No: Love, Hayward, Rose, Cousins, Korver, Parsons

I think Korver is tough to pass up because of his ability to play a deadly role but I doubt he'll make it.
Why does Derozan make it over Hayward, I really don't think Demar is even comparable to Gordon. Hayward>Derozan!

Well, like i said, even if u take DeRozen out, Thompson would likely go in before Hayward. Then you're still left with choosing between Hayward, Parson, AND DeRRRROOOOZENNNN.

Beal/Korver are legitimate options as well IMO.
 
Pg: Curry, Wall, Lillard
SG: Harden, Beal, Derozan
SF: George, Hayward
PF: Durant, Millsap
C: Davis, Cousins

This is the Line-up I would use.

Hayward and Parsons are better than Derozan. I think Hayward does more than Parsons but I also think Parsons is a better shooter, but Parsons doesn't create like Hayward does. Which I hope Hayward gets to be a more of a spot up shooter this season with more ball handlers on the team because I feel like Hayward would be just as good a spot shooter as Parsons if he didn't have to create so much.

I think there is enough shooting in Harden & Thompson...


- If neither goes down to injury - it's a mute point, Korver/Beal/etc, won't get time on the court anyway.

- If one of them goes down - I think Coach K would rather have someone who's a bit more 'rounded' and can do multiple things (ala Hayward, Parsons and (may be) Derozen)).

Durant would get killed at the 4. The international game is much more physical than the NBA.
 
Lol @ this board if Hayward tears his ACL.

Im predicting a self destruction of this board if mr max suffers an injury
 
WTF... The Canadian Justin Jackson apparently left Team Canada right before they were boarding a plane to Dubai to start practice... BOOO

His BBIQ is supposedly off the charts (Plays Point Forward), clearly hes got an NBA frame, It's early but i suspect hes a Rich man's Kyle Anderson.. I thought id finally get a chance to see him vs decent competition
