Tell that to the US team that lost to Greece in the semifinals of the 2006 World Championship. They got pushed around like a bunch of nuns.
Anyway, looks like we are sniping about nothing because Duncan
didn't even want to be on the team:

After the tournament, Duncan commented, "I am about 95 percent sure my FIBA career is over. I'll try not to share my experiences with anyone."

Anyway,
here is a blog post I read a while back that goes into detail about who should and shouldn't be selected for Team USA.
The author was almost perfect, his only mistake was picking Joe Johnson instead of Tayshaun. So KG wasn't even eligible to be picked as he is not on the
USA basketball roster.
