Just like Italy's National Team...etc.

    The NBA is about entertainment as well as it is about compe ion. The WCs and Olympics are not so much about entertainment. They are about representing and competing with other top athletes to win an honor.

    Let me encourage you to switch to some less myopic lenses.

    So the guy was excited about meeting Oberto, what's wrong with that? I realize Oberto is no superstar, but he is an NBA player and a gold medalist. What the have you done lately? other than bag on people because of your utter ignorance?

    If Kevin Willis is calling Solid "sir" I think I want Mr. D on my next 3 on 3 team.

    I was waiting for Shoog to say that. Too predictable.

    Yeah, I thought it was because I was older than Kevin, too.

    I wouldn't mind playing some 3-on-3 with Chopper, though.

    Give him a break, he's a Mavs fan. He wouldn't know better, especially having Cuban as his role model.

    This thread made me wonder if it there could be any more re ed 5th grade gay humor.

    What's wrong with seeing a Spur in public?
