It’s either going to be magical in that the Americans run away with another World Cup it’s going to be magical in a memorable way if Serbia give Team USA a run for it’s money.
But should the American’s come away with a win on Sunday, they’ll have won a World Cup without any current superstars on roster. It can be argued that Derrick rose is a superstar but he’s coming off back-to-back seasons where he barely played and he’s not being all that impressive in Spain.
But there is no LeBron James or Kevin Love or Blake Griffin on roster meaning if the American’s win the World Cup it’ll have been won by the future of Team USA basketball.
