“We have great chemistry. We understand the target is on our back.”

I'm slightly worried about our practice time together, which I assume is much less than other countries. But we still definitely have the team that can bring home the gold!

although the players haven't all played together as one team, every player has at least had time to player with others on the team with the exception of a 2 which i think was stated in another article (Lisa Leslie and Cappie Pondexter were the only players who never played on a team together) so their chemistry should be there and the comfortable feeling of having played with each other in the past, with the except of 2006 this has worked in the past so hopefully they will be able to regain their chemistry quickly

GO USA!!!
