For me...
Ebzery / Lavey / Seekamp
Ohea / Nicholson
Allen / Talbot
Griffin / George / Magbegor
Cambage / Tolo
Guard situation is dire and our mobility in front court is also a huge issue.
so you want the back court to be slow as well> OHea at the 2?

No way would you not have Mitchell in that line up as starting PG, Ebzery has way too many turnovers and is never good in clutch situations
Talbot at the 2 in the WC and they had Ohea there too.
Whitcomb the only elite shooting 2 but defensively not as good.
Griffins toughness is need and Mitchell is not quick enough for epoupa, the Puerto Rican pg or the Brazilian pg.
I'm thinking of the opponents, France will have johannes at the 2, Brazil has a good mix and Puerto Rico is guard heavy.
we will piss it in for top 3 whoever we select so no need to panic

Would be great to see Alanna Smith prove herself, after an underwhelming WNBA season(before her injury).
Still don't know why Mitchell is counted as a "naturalised" Australian when her birth mother is actually Australian!
It'll be handy to have both Mitchell and Griffin in the final Olympics team.
