    See, I don't get this.

    Team Canada losses to PR, yet the blame goes to people who weren't playing. Sure, if Fox and Maglore played it might have a been a different story, but they didn't play. Get over with it, it's not like you just put a gun to their head and say "play bitch!"...they're just invited to tryouts. If they don't wanna risk injury, that's their choice. Let's not put the blame on anyone and say congrats to the Canadian team for a good effort. 4th place is still great considering the team we put out there. As for the ashamed to be Canadian comment...what can I say other then your a damn hoser. As long as we've got gold in Hockey, I could care less. Congrats to PR, they were the better team and deserve to be in the olympics.

    But if it was hockey and the best Canadian player said that he didn't want to play,wouldn't you react the way i'm reacting?

    The point is, If you get the chance to play for your coutry,you should be thrilled to get that opportunaty and it's a joke that these guys keep saying no to team canada...

      Nope I wouldn't, becasue I understand these people have careers. If they don't want to risk injuries, respect that. It also doesn't help if the team around them isn't any good , which sadly was the main reason for Maglore. Although he hasn't stated this, it was apparent when he turned down the invite 4 times in the past 3 years.

      You won't see hockey players turning down invites becasue A) Canada is a hockey nation B) tradition, most Canadian players atleast know what happend in 72 C) If they don't want it, we've got thousands of people more then willing. Can you honestly say it's the same thing for basketball in this nation?

      It's not a joke, if they don't want to play...they don't want to play. Sure it's an honour and all, but you can't just drop everything and say..."sure, I'll play and rep Canada"...we're only getting half of the story.

            It just pains me to see nash helping the country when he can just do like Fox and Jamal and he doen't get any help...I honestly believe that if Fox and Magloire play we can at least be competitive vs the US.

                  Although it does pain me to see Nash all alone...don't get ahead of yourself. Fox and Magloire are 2nd-teir NBA players...no way they'd make it compeititve against the US. They'd prolly have a tough time against Argentina aswell.
