Team USA coach Mike Krzyzewski will take a young, inexperienced team into the World Championships in Turkey and he certainly sees them as beatable.

"We like the team that we're developing, but it's not a powerhouse. It'll be very much a developing team," Krzyzewski said. "We hope that we'll have our best product by the medal round."

Two years ago Krzyzewski had Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Carmelo Anthony. None of the players from the 2008 Olympics returned.

"We had hoped to get some of the guards, like Chris Paul and Deron Williams. But the fact that we have none of them is probably a little bit surprising," Krzyzewski said. "But since I've been doing this in 2005, I found that nothing should be a surprise. It's an ever-changing world."

However, it's not the guard position that he's worried about. Aside from Tyson Chandler, Team USA doesn't have a true center.

"We're very concerned," Krzyzewski said. "There's not as much margin for error because you can't make up for, say we don't hit from the outside. There's not this power game you can go to."
