They had enough 1-2 posts : DRose, Curry, Klay & Irving are all capable of playing 1-2 and they don't need one more. From what I saw, Lillard didn't show anything impressive during the preparation trainings..
If anything, I think they lack another 3 than Rudy Gay but well.. KD & PG24 aren't available so... they took another center (Plumlee)
I think Rose is still a bit overhyped, ok he's quick and can make flashy plays, but he stills turns the ball over a lot (5TOs in 23 mins lel).
I'm positively surprised by Anthony Davis, he really is playing extremly well.
I think it might be a bit more tough for the US when they'll play better teams (Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Slovenia,Finland... all of those aren't particularly strong teams.) but they still show they're a strong contender for the World champions title :D
