The USA won't beat Canada.  Remember who won the World University
Games gold medal last year? Even without Rautins, we've got
Pasquale, Kazanowski, Wiltjer, Tilleman, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's
high school coach, Jack Donohue.

If Naismith was Canadian, why was he in the US?  He must have liked
it better (or he knew the only people capable of playing such a
demanding game could be found here).

Don't go crazy.  There is proof that the Aztec (?) Indians played a
game similar to basketball a looooooonnnnnng time ago!  Naismith just
gave us the modern game of b-ball.
