1 of 28. Would be awesome if he could make the team

He's on pace to be the best Center in the league in a few years so I'd love to see him on the team. Imagine the rim protection of Drummond and Davis? And having a defender like George on the perimeter? Wow!

AD is scary. He is still so young and has the potential to be better than Dwight Howard who really isnt all that great imho. AD is just scratching the surface of what he can do and its really exciting to see him grow.

He has a double double-double tonight. 20+ pts and 20+ rebounds.

It's probably going to come down to Drummond and Cousins for the final roster spot. I like Drummond's chances if that were the case - he would just be a better fit.

The thing you have to like about AD in the Olympics and on All-Star teams is that he doesn't need to touch the ball in the offensive sets to be very effective. He is at his best rebounding on both ends, running and getting put backs.

Plus, he's can run all day which helps in the open court style of international ball.

His only weakness is trying to guard perimeter 5's on the other teams.

Also the Olympics won't be for another 2 years, think of how much better Drummond will be in 2 years.

Drummond has been far more responsible off he court. That does work in his favor.

I can't even imagine how effective he could be in international ball, where taking the ball off the rim is legal.
