CHICAGO (AP)?MVP Kobe Bryant will be heading to his first Olympics, and he?ll have LeBron James and Dwyane Wade with him.

They will lead a U.S. Olympic basketball team that was announced Monday and hopes to capture the gold medal in Beijing in August after a third-place showing in Athens four years ago. They?ll have plenty of help.

Carmelo Anthony and Jason Kidd were among the 12 players placed on the squad. They were joined by Tayshaun Prince, Carlos Boozer, Chris Bosh, Dwight Howard, Chris Paul, Michael Redd and Deron Williams.

?It was a very difficult selection process,? USA Basketball managing director Jerry Colangelo said during a news conference. ?When you have as many outstanding players as we have in this country?to select a group of 12 is obviously going to leave out a number of outstanding people.?

Someone send a memo out to Bejing China to keep their daughters at home during the olympics.
The US is sending its premier Horny Negro Cock into the Country and not even the Mighty Great wall can protect them.

These guys are used to getting so much pussy. Tiny Asian Girls of China by design cannot absorb negro cock. Espically that of NBA players.

Its dangerous.

Very Dangerous.

Kobe may get set up there and prisoned for life as an example to the world not to mess with Red China.

And their women.

boneprone · 06-23-2008, 12:36 PM

The Great Wall of China was created and designed to keep negros out of the Country.

Lets see what the Gods have planned this summer as China goes agaisnt all Holy Law and lets these guys into the Country.

Mark my words. Shit will go down..

By design gooks dont mix well with niggs

Kobe will actually have teamates that know how to play basketball so that should help.

The main reason you aren't seeing some of the top players is because they decided to withdraw their names from contention, it has nothing to do with the selections by the coaches.

I know "Rat Face" (aka Mike Kryzweski) chooses most of the team, since he is the head coach of this current Team USA, and also Jerry Colangelo, as director of the Senior National Team also has input as to whom goes on that team.

Well, he's been coaching the guys on the national team for 3 years now, so he knows (I hope he does) whom the best 12 guys are for the senior national team. Remember, to be considered for the national team you are required to commit to three years of training/international play with the team.

92 the 96 team had Reggie Miller and wasn't anywhere near as good but still way better than the teams we've put together since.

I see this team as a silver medal winner, nobody playing up front and somehow other than redd not a single shooter. so WTF? Dwight Howard needs to get a TON of boards and Bosh tend to play 10-15ft out WAY too much.

Kobe in previous USA play has played a point guard type role and has been a role player. Last time they got together 'melo was playin badass.

What happened?

boneprone · 06-23-2008, 04:29 PM

Was Magic Johnson Playing on the 92 dream team before his HIV announcement?

I trying to remember. I thought he announced in 1992 during the regualr season he had HIV and retired. The Olympics would have been right after that no?

But I dont remember any HIV/AIDS talk during the Olympics.

Does anyone remember.

Big fan of Magic and that Dream team. I remember watching that team just destroy people. There was nothing else like it and there never be anything like that ever again. It was a true DREAM TEAM.

I remember watching Magic do his thing and the dream team looked like the Harlem Globe Trotters out there.
It was AMAZING.

ProducerCashDave · 06-23-2008, 04:37 PM

November 7, 1991. Los Angeles. The phone call arrives early in the morning, "2 o'clock press conference, at the Forum," the Lakers' media relations official says. "Major announcement. About Magic."

"The Lakers have scheduled a press conference," a radio announcer says nervously. "The announcement has to do with Magic Johnson, who has been out of the lineup since last week in Utah. Magic could be out for a lot longer than anticipated."

Word arrives to the media that Johnson is ill. Very ill. He is only 32, a veteran of 12 seasons in the NBA, nine of which resulted in trips to the NBA finals, and five of those with NBA championships.

Early in the morning, Johnson telephones his best friends, one after another -- Larry Bird, Isiah Thomas, Michael Jordan and Pat Riley -- to tell them that he will have to retire, that he is HIV-positive, and that he wanted them to hear it from him, not from a news report.

Magic arrives at the Forum around noon. Dunleavy gathers all the Lakers in the dressing room before the press conference. Magic walks in, dressed in a suit and tie. He breaks the news that he must retire. Everyone breaks down.

The press room is quiet, tense, as Magic walks in. He is grim. He is followed by various Lakers officials. Magic walks to the podium. He bends his head and speaks into the microphone, announcing, "Because of the virus I have attained, I will have to retire from the Lakers."

The jam-packed room is motionless, stunned, numb. Tears well up in the eyes of many in the room. But there's not a tear a Johnson's eye.

Calm, upbeat and relaxed, Johnson tells reporters that he "will battle this deadly disease," that he will become a national spokesman about HIV because he wants young people to understand "that safe sex is the way to go. We sometimes think only gay people can get it, that it's not going to happen to me," he would say. "And here I am saying that it can happen to anybody, even me, Magic Johnson."

The question on many reporters' minds is how Magic contracted the disease, but he did not know. How long did he have to live, reporters ask. A few weeks? A few months?

"There is no immediate effect on his life, other than we have advised him to avoid activities which can further impair his immune system," Mellman would tell the press. Mellman says he told Johnson to retire because the rigors of pro basketball would weaken his physical condition and hasten the onset of AIDS.

Reporters wonder about Magic's wife, Cookie, and her pregnancy. Johnson confirms that she is OK, that the baby is OK, that neither of them tested HIV-positive.

Magic's positive demeanor brightens the gloom and doom in the room, at least to a certain degree. "This is not like my life is over because it's not," he tells the crowd. "I'm going to live on. Everything is still the same. I can work out. ... I'll just have to take medication and go on from there."

He smiles. He looks out toward the crammed room of reporters, fans, friends and teammates and says, "This is another challenge in my life. It's like your back is against the wall. And you have to come out swinging. And I'm swinging."

He shows absolutely no trace of self-pity. He tells reporters he still will be around to needle them. "I plan on going on, living for a long time, bugging you guys like I always have," he would say with another huge smile. "You'll see me around. I plan on being with the Lakers. ... Of course, I will miss the battles and the wars, and I will miss you guys. But life goes on."

While people in the crowd wipe away tears, the dry-eyed Johnson concludes the news conference by saying, "I'm going to go on. I'm going to beat this, and I'm going to have fun."

Socks · 06-23-2008, 04:37 PM

LOL..

Pretty fucked up that the original news article can't list all FIVE starters in the sentence.. Jason Kidd and Carmelo Anthony were just too B-list to make the headline

farkedup · 06-23-2008, 04:38 PM

it was a big story during the olympics because it was AFTER he announced... people started being aware of blood and things like that... basically play had to stop anytime somebody got a lil cut and well... its still like that.... back in the day unless the guy was absolutely gushing play would continue.

I didn't forget. Wade doesn't need Kobe to win. It would be nice to see how many points Wade puts on the board compared to Kobe.
