200 Free, 200 Fly, 400 IM (which he swore he would never do again). Anyone doubt he'll make the team in the 100 Fly & 200 IM? That's 5 individual events. He'll be on the 800 FR for sure. As one of the top 2 flyers, he will be on the 400 MR and as coaches choice, we assume will get a spot on the 400 FR. Seriously, it's doable and I think that's what he is striving for. No way he would have endured the 400 IM unless 8/8 is his objective.

Lochte is still in the 200 back, going for the crazy 2back/2IM double just as he did in Beijing. I have no doubt that Phelps will make the team in the 200 IM. The 100 fly is not a slam dunk but it's hard to pick out TWO guys who I think will beat him.
