What else is new? Team USA will just dominate this again. Giannis with the Bucks can't win the championship in the NBA. And his team mates in Greece won't be better than the Bucks. Unless USA won't have their top 5 players on board. KD and Klay are injured. Curry won't probably play. Leonard, PG and Irving will be busy creating chemistry with their new teams. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) You think Popovich is that dumb not to pick good players? This roster of USA for this FIBA 2019 is massive and I know they can ball and penetrate in and out of the court. If there are team that can go head to head with them that's for sure Serbia again or perhaps Spain. Serbia could be the team that could beat the US. With almost all players playing in the best league in this world which is the NBA, it actually gives them a boost of confidence to take over even USA. Anyway, have you seen the exhibition game between USA and Australia? Australia have players that have something to prove to in the world cup, but this was a blowout game. 102-86 is the final score. Kemba helped the team to defeat Australia with 23 pts and 6 rebs. Keeping an eye on Australia, I positively think that their team will remain capable of beating a good game. That's why their performance is a huge potential to achieve goals successfully. Maintaining their position, doing daily practices and many ways to enhance skills; great results will follow.

The United States is ahead of the rest of them by a huge margin, and unfortunately this gap is increasing with every passing year.
I agree with most of your statement except this one. Their roster this year is not that far ahead of Serbia. If they ever lock horns later in the competition, I think Serbia will win. The US team has almost achieved a superhuman status and it is difficult to imagine any other team being capable of giving them a run for their money, much less defeating them. I think that their last defeat was against Mexico during the qualifiers more than a year ago. But then, the team was devoid of most of the NBA players. If I remember correctly, it was Marcus Thornton who scored the maximum points for US in that game. I agree that Serbia is the no.2 team. I would rather say that Serbia is the team that has the maximum chances of defeating the Americans in the tournament. The betting odds for Serbia are quite favorable (+500 to +600), and it won't be a bad idea to bet in their favor. I am not even considering the other teams, such as Australia and Greece.

USA already beat Australia, there's no special with that team, and their odds says itself. Let's hope they will face in the Finals and both teams will give a very competitive match,I'm with the Serbia considering their odds is really good, but if I will not bet on this particular event, I will have USA all day.

Probably true that both teams are favorites for finals. But if I looked correctly there is possibility that they can be facing in semis, or I looked wrong. Anyway many articles and sport shows that I watched suggest the same thing that Serbia has team that can possible win USA team. This could be good if someone is placed bet on Serbia. But I would like to see them in finals and to both teams show best possible play in that match.

If Serbia is in a good day they can definitely win the US. USA is a team that entertains me a lot as they play good basketball in terms of excitement. Serbia is a solid team with many experienced players and I think it is the time to win this tournament.

It's their best chance now because although the team USA is the favorites to win, I don't see them as a super team unlike the Roster they have in the past. I like betting on the underdog but this dog has a chance of pulling out a win, and when it comes to experience, I agree with you that they have the edge as most of the players of the USA team are young players.

It's their best chance now because although the team USA is the favorites to win Team USA seems the most favorite because most of huge NBA superstars are Americans. They are not called Dream Team for nothing, charisma and strength they possess makes them special among teams. But this year, honestly they are not my favorite. I am now getting more interested to the team which could beat them ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . I don't see them as a super team unlike the Roster they have in the past.
Indeed. Take a look on this year's USA's roster. Well, they are still considered high calibers in basketball but I admit that they are not as solid as before.

We can tell because those are not the top highest paid NBA players, they are still a rising star for me because they are still young. They also don't have a solid scorer that is comparable to Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis, and Kyrie Irving, I guess they this team due to their popularity are just overvalued.

Indeed, this is the best time to bet for Serbia to win the World Cup this year and their odds is good. I have seen the friendly match between the US and Australia and they were not so dominant on that win though they will make some adjustment but they are beatable. Serbia has a lot of outside shooters which could make the difference if they face US in the Finals.

Exactly. And In my opinion, it is always satisfying to see the USA losing. This would mean that we are going to watch an amazing game, as all the teams need to try their maximum efforts to win this team.

Now it's need for everyone to focus on this incoming games and try to adjust to the next round, no offense but every teams deserve this spot even there's teams who really have the advantages but keeping the faith alive and do their very best to achieved more, chances to make your country proud when you bring all in to play and try your very best even in a smallest chance that you have.

If we will see Serbia and the US in the Finals, they will be like the Warriors and the Raptors where Warriors were the heavy favorites but the Raptors end up winning in the series. But this one, I don't hope for an injury, of course the game would be fun to watch if all players are given a chance to play. I would cheer for my nation's team but I know they will not be able to enter in the top 10, but if they will have at least one win, that would be good enough and a great achievement since this is an world wide competition.

The Serbians definitely will have a chance. Serbia will (unfortunately) beat Greece if we meet during the tournament. Funny side note though: In my opinion - even though Serbia is > Greece - Greece will even have a better chance of winning against the USA, just due to the fact that their style will fit us (Giannis) more. Cant wait for the tournament to start, only a few more days.

When there are highlights, I'm watching more on a youtube channel named Ximo Pierto. They are much more faster than any other uploads. Unfortunately, there are lots of impostors of the channel. I was expecting for the Australia Boomers to be more physical here and do some trash talking like they did in the Philippines so we can again see a brawl highlights. LOL.. As a Filipino, I will also never forget that fight. Well, Filipinos are more focused on games. Just don't talk trash on them. Things could get ugly.

Serbia is Serbia +350, meaning if you bet 1000 usd for serbia, you will get 2500 as your winning, that's a good odds right?
Those are good odds actually. The US team has almost achieved a superhuman status and it is difficult to imagine any other team being capable of giving them a run for their money, much less defeating them.
Those were in the past. Let's focus on the current roster. They are very much beatable as compared to previous US teams. I have no doubt that coach Pop will try to bring the best out of these young team but they'll still fall short when they face teams like Serbia.

USA is not bringing college players to the cup, they are still legit NBA players. We are talking about kemba walker, jaylen brown, tatum, kuzma, myles, harris, brook, middleton and any other I might be missing right now. If you brought these players to any league in the world they would destroy it, hell I remember an old and retiring Allen Iverson wrecking havoc in Turkey, same with Deron Williams as well.
Has USA lost a cup before? Sure they have, that is always been a possibility even with the dream team, even spain gave USA dream team with Kobe and wade and melo and lebron a run for their money, that is literally the best team that could have been organized and they were still going close in points.
Hence, there is a chance that USA of course could lose but that won't be because the team is not good, team is awesome and they are by far the best roster in the league and its not even close, all other teams may have 1-2 NBA players, some may have very good nba player like giannis or jokic but those are just ONE, whereas USA has a lot of amazing players.

I thought we should have groups and tournament format posted here for reference: A. B. C. D.Poland Russia Spain Angola Côte d'Ivoire Argentina Iran Philippines Venezuela S.Korea Puerto Rico Italy China Nigeria Tunisia Serbia E. F. G. H.Turkey Greece Dominican Rep. Canada Czech Rep. New Zeeland France Senegal USA Brazil Germany Lithuania Japan Montenegro Jordan Australia
First two teams of each group advance into second round forming 4 new groups (I, J, K, and L) Results from the first group stage carry over into the second round. A 1 + A 2 + B 1 + B 2 = Group I C 1 + C 2 + D 1 + D 2 = Group J E 1 + E 2 + F 1 + F 2 = Group K G 1 + G 2 + H 1 + H 2 = Group L Quarter-Finals:I 1 vs. J 2K 1 vs. L 2J 1 vs. I 2L 1 vs. K 2 Semi-FinalsWinner of (I 1 vs. J 2) vs. winner of (K 1 vs. L 2) Winner of (J 1 vs. I 2) vs. winner of (L 1 vs. K 2)
Being there no surprises in the first group stage Spain and Serbia will join together in group J. Winner of group J will have the chance to face team USA the earliest in the Finals (if they win their matches) Loser has to play the USA in the semis (if they win their matches) source: http://www.fiba.basketball/basketballworldcup/2019
