Canada uses team speed and outside shooting to pummels the cocky American team. American coaches fumble game plan, and there was some discontent with the inclusion of a few "friends" of the coaching staff caucasians players.

Any name players on the USA team, or mostly D-league scrubs like in the T&F competition?
Is Lebron on the team?

Lebron's game would not hold up under international rules. Lebron would be called on "travelling" every time he touches the ball.
Lebron has a bronze (2004) and two golds (2008, 2012) in the Olympics.

That was a long time ago. Tiger Woods was pretty good in 2008 too. The international game is much faster.

Your claim was that Lebron would be called with traveling every time he touched the ball. What does the above have to do with that argument?
...pummels sad sack American's (what?)

This is what happened before we started sending the pros (starting with the Dream Team). We would use college kids at the big international tournaments and would lose.

You just got pwned there...
The U.S. has more medals than Canada at this year's Pan-Ams even though the U.S. is mostly only sending 'B' athletes to the games, while Canada is using most of their top athletes since they're hosting the competition.
Congrats to the USA's best with a solid bronze medal today.
Canada has a full NBA team with some decent players (starters or big contributors in their teams like Andrew Wiggins). They sent a "b" team for Toronto Pan Ams with only NBA bench Warmers like Anthony Bennett, Sim Bhullar and Andrew Nicholson.
Lebron is not going to be in Rio after Lance Armstrong and NOP doping scandals. Remember, the NBA doesn't test for HGH or SARMS.

By my count, that's 12 players. 5 of them (Brown, Hollins, Langford, Randolph, Wilkins) are fringe NBA players/non-NBA players with the other 7 being college players who are mostly predicted as 2nd round picks for the 2016 NBA Draft. I wouldn't even consider this a "B" squad for Team USA. This is more like a "D" squad. Anyone who expected this team to do well is delusional.
What we do in the greatest City in the world (Toronto) is put down a game plan and execute.
