How stupid is the decision by the Olympic basketball folks to schedule tryouts during the final four?

She’s not remotely the top 12 US female in bbal?? I beg to differ

ABN RGR

6:40pm

Not remotely close.

Archaea

6:42pm

She's 13th in scoring, 4th assists, 17th in steals, 18th in blocks. Seems closer to top 12 than not remotely close to me

Spiff

6:47pm

So a volume player is judged solely on stats? No, you like her

Archaea

6:50pm

If she didn't show up for tryouts, then she shouldn't be on the team. I'm ok w/ a rookie having to tryout.

Spiff

She was playing in the Final Four and so missed the tryout camp, which is not
