The pending free agency in the NBA starting July 1st, will be amazing to watch.
Many of the best players in the world could be switching teams and the balance of power in the NBA may be changed for up to a decade to come.
With many top NBA players looking to make millions of dollars with new contracts, they will not do anything to jeopardize their health.
Playing for team USA in the summer is one possibility of a way to get hurt.
Superstar guard and 2008 Olympic gold medal winner Dwayne Wade, said he will not play for team USA in the summer, using his ongoing divorce as an excuse.
But although his off the court trouble may be a legitimate reason for Wade, other superstars that can be free agents such as Lebron James, Chris Bosh, and Amare Stoudemire probably will not play for team USA.
I think their absence is great. This will allow younger, and internationally inexperienced players valuable experience. The international rules are a bit different from the NBA, so learning in competitive games will help the younger players.
I am looking forward seeing Kevin Durant play for team USA this summer.
The hardest working player in the NBA, Kevin Durant will surely be on the 2012 USA Olympic team in London, and he may be the best NBA player then too.
While free agency will give team USA a new look roster, the experience the younger players will earn will benefit team USA when the nest Olympic games start.
