The Flaws of the USA Basketball Team

Lacking Size

The US team is made up of guards and not a lot of forwards. There is only one true center which is Dwight Howard. There are a lot of guards. This team may be dominated down low if Yao Ming has a good game or another team.

Fouls

USA fouls way too much in the games. When looking for a steal or a block, they always end up with a foul with few occasional successes. Fouls could be a major issue in this year's Olympics.

Opponents Scoring

Even though, USA beats their opponents by many points but that doesn't mean they score a lot of points. USA has tremendous defence so they should be able to keep their opponents to a real minimum amount of points. Yet USA blows out almost every team they play.
