Potential NBA players don't necessarily grow up dreaming abou the Olympics, like so many other Olympic athletes do. For them to put in the effort for this is admirable in my mind.

So I will support them.
Good point - props to Team USA for stepping out of their skin for a couple weeks to live like Dirk does every day of his life...

(but I'm still rooting for the guy who comes by the Olympic Attitude naturally...)


GO GERMANY!
