Syracuse: Boeheim to Take 2-3 Zone International



Boeheim to Take 2-3 Zone International: The U.S. Olympic basketball team might have to wear a shade of orange somewhere on their jerseys, an appropriate color once they are indoctrinated by the Orange’s Jim Boeheim. Boeheim is one of three coaches who will serve as assistants to U.S. basketball head coach and Duke’s own guru Mike Krzyzewski. Joining Boeheim and Coach K are Phoenix Suns coach Mike D’Antoni and Portland Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan. The cast represents a variety of backgrounds, which Jerry Colangelo, managing director of USA Basketball, hopes will be enough to return the United States to its status as king of the hill. The U.S. team has had poor outings on the world stage lately. Look for that to change with the newest braintrust running the show.
