The only way he would have been cut, is if the staff felt his play style wouldn't be effective against FIBA teams. Congrats so far, Derrick!

"Rose makes the cut"

in other news, the sun came out again this morning. -_-

I'm curious to see how much PF Durant plays.

That team does not look as great, in years. But, maybe that's because not as many big names. However, the team looks great with all the young talent.

Should we be surprised Rose made the cut? I'm happy that these young players get to experience representing the US. I'm excited to see their chemistry together and how far they go.

Proud of Rose no matter what.

Like I said in the past about him joining this USA team.....it will only double his confidence & make him a better person/player.

Prope, I get what your saying. I guess I just believe that his confidence has no limit at all now. Whether it did before or not I dunno. haha

Bulls’ Rose: ‘My team is ready to fight’ | Blogs.Bulls.com

“I thought he had a great week. I love Derrick,” Krzyzewski said of Rose. “Jerry [Colangelo], myself and Derrick are all from Chicago; that’s not why he made the final 15. I thought he had an absolutely incredible performance in the scrimmage on Saturday. His ability to move the ball down the court and penetrate—he had eight assists—was very, very good. Defensively, he took it up a notch this week. There’s a spirit of defense with the guards now with Rondo and Westbrook. Derrick really pressured the ball very, very well.”
