The Huaxia Men's Basketball Team originally had a record of 2 wins and 3 losses in the group stage this tournament, barely scraping through group play with a three-point kill by Wang Shipeng against Slovenia.
Of course, that was originally.
Now with Su Wan, they had knocked out Italy, Senegal, and Puerto Rico, as well as Slovenia, standing before the Dream 7 Team with an undefeated record.
The lineup of the Dream 7 Team included Carmelo Anthony, Shawn Battier, Chris Bosh, Elton Brand, Hinrich, Dwight Howard, LeBron James, Antoine Jamison, Joe Johnson, Brad Miller, Chris Paul, and Dwayne Wade.
Looking at a bunch of elite soldiers.
But ultimately, the original Dream 7 Team fell in the semifinals and got only a bronze medal.
This just goes to show that they were not one of the top teams in this year's World Championship.
The main problem was the inside line.
Brand, Howard, Bosh, and Jamison's frontcourt could not adapt to the international basketball rules.
