Managing Director: Jerry Colangelo
Head Coach: Mike Krzyzewski, Duke University (N.C.)
Assistant Coach: Jim Boeheim, Syracuse University (N.Y.)
Assistant Coach: Mike D'Antoni, Phoenix Suns
Assistant Coach: Nate McMillan, Portland Trail Blazers
Director of Scouting: Rudy Tomjanovich
Personally I'm surprised with these selections; Kevin Durant, Antawn Jamison, Adam Morrison, and Greg Oden.
Durant and Oden: I don't mind them playing youngsters, especially Rookies. It's a good experience for them, but doesn't anyone feel like they're having heavy expectations put on them to perform at such a young age?
Adam Morrison: Apart from some glimpses of skill last season, does anyone see ANYTHING in him worthy of playing for the National team? I sure don't. His Rookie season was pretty much a bust. What's changed so far?
Antawn Jamison: I guess it's simply because he's been off the radar for a while, his is a surprise entry for me.
Personally, I'm happy about these ones; Tyson Chandler, J.J Redick, Luke Ridnour.
Chandler: Deserves a day in the limelight. Has played awesome bball for the last four or five years.
Redick: Never had a chance with Hill in charge. Hopefully, we'll see the REAL Redick this season being backed by Van Gundy.
Ridnour: Earned his spot on the team by being the leader for the Sonics. Sadly, he'll probably take a back seat from now on with Durant stealing the show in Seattle.
What are your thoughts on the team's selections?
